Well Thursday was a mixture of play, work and some down time to read for a couple of hours. We had more rain overnight and while it was wet outside I was able to ride my bike to the Rec. where I got in a great hour plus workout on the pickle ball court. We had our usual lunch crowd except for Bobby who must have been working away from our area. Nancy was off with her mom shopping for most of the morning.
Well the day started with my usual before 6'ish roll out. I had my cup of tea with turmeric while I posted this ramble and then spent some quiet time with my Creator. I did speak with Paw Paw and he is still in the hospital in Winchester where he is getting some medications for the pain in his hip. The VA hasn't made a decision on what to do but things are starting to move towards some action according to his doctor in Martinsburg. Hopefully he will be strong enough for a replacement or whatever they do to give him some relief. They now think the infection is arrested and that he just needs to build his strength up for the surgery. Also if you have a moment lift up our "mountain mom's" brother Joe who we learned on FB that he wasn't doing well as his daughter ask for prayer. Joe is 90 years young.
I did some small projects now that most all of the painting is done until we get the final two bedrooms with new flooring installed then Nancy wants to change the wall colors in the master bedroom and in the living room. We have really noticed a difference in the coolness of the house since the carpet is gone. Amy say's her house is so hot while she complains of ours being chilly and we have no a/c on at the present. I really has stayed very comfortable with the new floorings. I managed to read for an hour or so on a book titled GIRL ON THE TRAIN. It's different and at times I almost pout it down for good but there is just enough intrigue to go on to the end. I did spent a couple hours on getting my paper work ready to file my taxes.
We headed over to GG's around 5'ish and had a delicious meat loaf supper accompanied by my pot of collard greens which I had cooking since 10 am. They smelled so good and they were a hit. This new recipe is fabulous. We had a few oven taters as well as a side salad. I washed the dishes afterwards and Nancy dried. We visited until it was time for VP Pence to give a speech at the CPAC meeting on the Fox News channel. We are blessed to have two great men at the head of the nation with the countries interests at heart and who want to bring the influence of our GOD back into the nation. I love the fact that these two men plus their cabinet members are willing to put politics aside and seek what is best for America. I'm still at a loss why the left or libs want to have illegals in the nation who have killed so many innocent people and bring their so called religion of radical Islamic terrorism. Just look at Europe and now Sweden with all of their issues of riots, protests and suicide killings. It's just crazy to think we have elected folks in the congress who subscribe to this ideology, oh well. Hopefully that will change with this new America first administration.
Well that was about it for Thursday as after a hot shower I watched the Tucker Carlson show on Fox and he asks the real hard line questions of those who seem to be on the front line of not supporting our new president and his policies. He actually makes them look foolish and uneducated with their beliefs. The nation is under attack from within more so than from abroad and we must keep our new leaders in our prayers and thoughts and dismiss the biased fake news media. We need a media but not one which lies and makes up stories about those whom they do not support. They got Obama elected because they failed to do their proper vetting of this inept politician. They do not own Trump who beat their candidate of choice, Hillary and the best they can do is to smear, lie and create false stories about him and his cabinet. Trump has done more in 1 month to make the nation great again than Obama did in 8 years. Obama never wanted the nation to succeed and now we are seeing the back room deals, the deliberate destruction of the economy with give aways and the lack of vetting for immigrants who want to destroy us from within which I believe was his intentions all along, LATER
