Well Monday was a mixture of play which was more like work as I met up with several other A pickle ball players at a gym where only A players meet twice a week. It costs a few bucks but what a work out with some great rallies and hard fought games. I managed to hold my hold for the nearly three hours of play winning with several different partners. The work started after lunch with the paint brush once again until nearly 4:30 when I decided to call it a day and head out to the back yard and hand water the gardens.
The morning started with my usual before 6 roll out to my usual morning routines that started with a cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric. I've gotten so use to the taste I'm not sure I could enjoy a cup of hot tea with out the turmeric plus it is a pain reliever for the joints especially my one knee I hyperextended a few years ago. I spent a few quiet moments with my Creator in thanksgiving and intercessory thoughts and prayers for those I know who are hurting and needing healing in some form or another. Paw Paw is heading down to D.C. on Friday for some procedure on the hip at Walter Reed Hospital and brother Joe in the mountains is slowly recuperating but now needs constant care with having someone in the family to be with him. We spoke with our "mountain mom" last evening and one day it's brutally cold and windy and the next day it's like springtime, oh well.
I rode my bike over to Walgreens to meet up with two other players as we car pooled over to Pinellas Par. We had 10 layers on two courts and the action never stopped unless you lost a set then you waited to team up with a new partner for the next set. I sat very little during the nearly 3 hours of play and when we left a little after 11'ish my shirt was soaked. I had brought a power bar and drink with me which helped with keeping the energy level during the workout. Since our Rec. is closed for whole week I think I'll go back on Friday for another round with these A players. Most of the guys have tournament wins and most are a but younger as well but I did alright with only two losses all morning.
Well Bobby came for lunch as Amy and Eliza stayed away due to some stomach issues with Eliza during the night and now Tyler had some stomach issues at work so he came home and worked from there. Nancy had taken GG to a doctor's appointment and then she herself saw a doctor about a rash she has developed on her face. I think it's from the change in her makeup and so does the doctor. She prescribed a cortizone cream and to not use the make up for a few days; I should have hanged out my shingle as that is exactly what I mentioned to her but I have no M.D. behind my name, oh well.
I picked 4 nice green peppers and along with fresh mushrooms, onions and cherry tomatoes and grilled them along with marinated chicken breasts for our supper and ate them fajitas style with some hot sauce, delicious to say the least. After the cleanup we settled into the FOX News Channel and once more this past administration has left several bombs to destroy the Trump chance to put the country on the right track with the biased help of the media. I really think they are criminals as many Obama sycophants and himself are doing everything they can to disrupt this new administrations efforts. I'm beginning to wonder if these efforts are bordering on being treasonous in nature.
We are learning of huge giveaways to a country like Kenya, (his birth place in my opinion) done at the last minute without congressional approval in his last hours before Trump was sworn into office. We will eventually will find out all of the corruption within his sphere of influence; I just hope the rest of the country will find out as well because the mainstream media is failing on their job to report this except for Fox News. Now he is responsible for leaking wiretapped conversations which smells of several felonies as well and undermining national security. There is no end or cause these folks will do to cause havoc for Trump and the new administration, LATER
