Well January left us on a really nice day that started out a bit nippy. By the late afternoon we had the windows and doors open to bright sunshine and temps in the low 70's. I got in some more painting on the second coat for the kitchen walls and now we are getting the countertops installed Friday morning. We will then get serious about choosing flooring to match.
I started Tuesday much the usual with a before 6'ish rollout. I had my cup of hot tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble. Nancy actually ran the heat to take the chill off as the inside had dropped down to 68. I thought it felt great. I did my quiet time to honor my Creator and give thanks for another day and to pray for those I know who are hurting. No news or updates on Paw Paw at the ALF. I got ready and headed out to the Rec. around 8 for a good hour and half workout on the pickle ball court with several A Players. My shirt was soaked when I left.
I hand watered the gardens then we took off to the flooring store to get our estimate which was rather high but not what I had anticipated. Bobby thinks we can do better with some more shopping around and we are waiting to make sure the color matches up with the granite tops. We headed over to the Largo area to pick up a twin bed for grandson Sam as he is about to be moved into his own room and Eliza Faye will bunk with Ava in a room together. We picked up GG from the hair salon and brought her to the house to have lunch with Amy and Eliza. We took GG home then stopped at Home Depot to return some items before heading home to paint the afternoon away. I managed another coat of gray paint on the walls which keep me busy right up to 5'ish.
Nancy took off on her walk and I picked another huge mess of half runner beans as well as cut several heads of lettuces and blessed the Botbyl's and Tracy's. I had new lettuce seedlings coming up when the dang squirrels got into them and dug them up. They are having a field day on my green tomatoes. I found two half eaten ones on the ground and a couple times seen them on the back fence with one in their mouths. I may have to try to trap them with peanut butter, oh well. They are such a pest and have no enemies to keep them under control, oh well.
We finished up the leftovers for supper and then settled into the FOX Cable News channel watching O'Reilly and then Tucker Carlson. It wasn't long afterwards I hit the hot shower and was soon ready for some horizontal lab by 10'ish, LATER
