chores then baseball

 i still had some things to do on labor day. there was some chores, the dishes were done first. then laundry. and then going to the copy store and printing tickets to two st. paul saints baseball games. it was a little past midday by then so i went to have lunch at arby's after i was done at the copy store. then i put away laundry and laid down for a little while. when i got up it was time to get to the saints game. normally the saints do not play on monday but the game was moved up due to the holiday. first pitch was in the mid-afternoon, playing the iowa cubs. it was tied 1-1 at the end of the first inning, but the i-cubs went ahead 8-1 not too long after that, aided by the long ball. saints lost 11-8, there was a late rally but it fell short. i will be attending another game in this series. since it was a laundry day and i had just picked up another shirt i decided to swap out two in my lineup. a shirt claimed when cleaning out desks and storage rooms at the bank replaced one from a former employer, and the great pumpkin shirt replaced a white sox shirt. i could have used both for a little while longer but i am trying to do 'one for one' when acquiring new ones and i still have plenty to wear. during my walks i found 72 cents.
