One day you relax, the next you don't

Yesterday lots of parents sent their children off to the first day of school. Our son is in Toronto (about 4 hours from here) trying to find his first permanent home. Where did the time go? Seems like just yesterday we were putting him on the bus for school.

It seems fitting that we spent yesterday babysitting John's grandson. Mr. J is a joy to have around. We had a fun day with lots of adventures. The great thing about a two year old is that everything is a big adventure.

Playing with cars. Did you know that some float...and some don't? Amazing to a 2 year old.

Going for a walk with Baba (and Bama busy taking photos)
Watching the local machinery busy at work. And watching. And watching. Want to go home Mr. J? No! We didn't go home until the digger stopped for the day. Good thing we waited until the afternoon nap was over before we went for a walk to look at the machines!

So, yesterday was relaxing and fun. Today, not so relaxing.

Package an order and go to the post office. Go to the bank to deposit the cheques that came in last week (yay!). Go to the natural food store to purchase ingredients for the dog cake (yes, a cake for dogs) that I'm going to bake. Package 5 orders for delivery into Ottawa tomorrow. Process and print invoices for the orders. Bake a cake for a dog birthday party. John picked up the biscuits from our bakery to bring back to our workshop for packaging. When he arrives, we unload 500 pounds of dog biscuits out of the CRV and into the workshop. Whew! And it's not over yet...
