Thursday Morning

Well Wednesday turned out to be an awesome day with temps in the low 70's, bright blue skies and sunshine; a typical Florida winter day. We did have the heat on in the early morning to take the chill out of the house but by the afternoon the windows and doors were open. I had a morning workout at the Rec. then Amy and Eliza came for lunch and we visited more flooring stores and looked at tons of samples. I'm through with this process as its now becoming no longer fun and exciting.

The day started with a 5'ish roll out as I couldn't sleep due to the snoring of Nancy, so just got up and read. I got at least 5-6 hours of sleep which is really all I need to function. I did my routines of a hot cup of tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble and then spent some quiet time with my Creator in thanksgiving and intercessory prayer for those I know and love. I did speak with Paw Paw and he seemed much better with his situation and didn't complain of much ill health except for his knee. He mentioned the fact they may replace it if its warranted by the VA. He says he is walking some but uses his wheelchair when going to the cafeteria.

I had a great workout on the pickle ball court with 6 other A players and was whupped by 10'ish. I stopped off at the library on the way home for a new Ken Follett read. The ride to the Rec. on my bike was chilly to start but by the time I left it had warmed up considerably. I hand watered the gardens and then we took off floor shopping and finally to Home Depot for some new electrical receptacles and switches that were white instead of the almond color. Needless to say I purchased the wrong ones because when I went to replace the old ones they were different in the number of poles, oh well at least the store is just a couple miles away.

Nancy took off shopping so since I couldn't do any more work I sat and read for a couple hours then chased the squirrels out of the gardens with the BB gun. They are so brazen now with their desire to eat my green tomato's until I pick up the gun then they scamper away up the trees. As soon as they hear the door close they are right back in the garden so now I'm tricking them and did manage to sting one as he flipped in the air and ran off. They are such a pest and a destroyer of my garden, oh well. I had picked half runner beans the day before so I snapped and took the strings out and we boiled them with some smoked ham and chicken broth for our supper. Delicious is all I can say.

After the cleanup which wasn't much we settled into the Fox Cable Shows and see where the media is blasting this immigrant ban with false exposure. They are right in there with false news about the vetting of these who are coming from countries with terrorist ties. They along with left are trying their best to destroy Trump and his administration and the safety of us the people which he is supposed to consider first and foremost. I'm just besides myself with the liberals and secular progressives and the distortion of the truth. We finally have a Potus who cares about the safety of the nation and wants to make us whole again and the media is doing all they can to destroy his executive orders along with the democrats. It's shameful we have so many anti-Americans in the government and among the millennials. I know a lot of it comes from academia's false teachings about our history in the universities and they want a socialist society with open borders. We can just look at the example of Europe and see where this ideology has destroyed their culture and has advanced terrorism with these Muslim immigrants. What ever happened to common sense, Oh well LATER
