Well Tuesday was both a mixture of fun and play with mostly work after lunch. I had a good work out at the Rec. on the pickle ball court for an hour and half then headed home to harvest the last of the Romaine and clean it after a trip to the barber shop which is just a few blocks down the road. Nancy had picked up her mother and took her grocery shopping as she was just back in town after being in Miami for about 10 days.
I started the day with a 6'ish roll out to my usual routines that started with a hot cup of tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble. I then spent a few quiet moments with my Creator in humble thanksgiving and lifting up several by name who are hurting. I haven't any new news on Paw Paw for the past couple of days since they are waiting on the VA to make a decision. It could be he will be wheel chair bound for some time.
Nancy got back to the house with GG around 12:30 and then Amy and Eliza Faye came and we had a lunch of sandwiches and salad. I started painting the inside doors of the bedrooms and then the folding doors as well which kept me busy until 4'ish. I had a few cracks in the crown molding I wanted to seal with caulk and then I will paint all of them as well. Nancy wants to change the color of the living room and bedroom walls as well. She received her new white comforter by Fed Ex today and quickly replaced the dark brown one on the bed. I do like the look and it really brightens up the room minus the chocolate brown curtains which she and Amy took down as well. That really brightens up the bedroom. This has turned into a whole house redo.
Nancy had a pot roast in the oven with fresh garden grown carrots which are delicious. I worried they would never make but they are fat and juicy and perfectly formed whereas last years carrots were long and slim but delicious to taste. The recent transplant of the lettuce seedling from seeds seem to be doing fine and we will need them in a few days as all but the black seeded Simpson lettuce is now gone. I cut and stored the last of the Romaine. The kale and Swiss chard which are both good fillers in salads are still doing great. I've been setting the sprinkler for hours on the garden as the hand watering just isn't doing enough. The cucumber plants are dead and I need to pull them out. The beans are blooming again as they love this weather. The collards, egg plant, peppers and herbs are doing fine but I'm still waiting on the sweet onions to bulb up.
Well Nancy picked up her mom around 5'ish to have supper with us and I must say the smell of the pot roast was awesome throughout the afternoon. We had roasted carrots, smashed taters and a gravy from the juice of the roast which made for an awesome supper. I had a small salad as well as they all had salad for lunch. After the cleanup we settled into the Fox News and once more Trump was right on about the Muslim crime in Sweden which the "fake news" outlets excoriated him after his comment the day before. The libs and the left will never be on the team to make America Great Again and its a shame. The demo's continue to hold up any progress on helping him with his cabinet picks. It a shame we have such a divide and that all comes from the past potus who is now acting treasonous with his attempt to thwart any progress by Trump, LATER
