Wednesday Morning

Well Tuesday was a total work day that started early and I never stopped until about 5 ish when I headed over to pick up Nancy at GG's house where Nancy had dropped her car off. She had been running GG to all kinds of appointments so she used her car which is easier for her to get in and out of. No one came for lunch today as the Ross household is still having some stomach issues, GG stayed home because of her schedule and Bobby never called about being over here in Pinellas and stopping by for a sandwich. I took about 15 minutes for a lunch break then it was back to work.

The morning started with my usual roll out a little before 6. I did my morning routines that started with a hot cup of green tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble then spent some quiet time with my Creator in thanksgiving for another day and lifting up by name those who are hurting for some healing and comfort. Afterwards I had an apple for breakfast and started on taking all of the pulls off of the cabinets in the kitchen. I wanted to give them their final coat of paint with a sponge roller which takes away all of the brush marks and smoothes the surface.

That kept me busy for several hours. I even repainted the kitchen door and began gluing the baseboards around the window seat and caulking it as well. I put new face plates on the outlets in the living room and then cleaned out the garage as we have been leaving the truck out in the driveway for the past couple of weeks. Now that the old freezer is gone and I can move it back into the garage at nights. I noticed yellow pollen from the oaks covered the surface so I took the water hose and washed it off before putting it inside. I did hand water the gardens and gave my neighbors some collards, tomatoes and an eggplant along with some fresh herbs. Nancy fried up an egg plant while we waited for the chicken wings to cook on the grill. I picked some Thai basil to add to the egg plant and did it ever spark up the flavor along with some sweet basil. I grilled the wings along with some fresh asparagus, wow. That is the best way ever to cook asparagus.

After the clean up we settled into the Fox News Cable Channel and once more we are learning just how corrupt the past administration is and was. They blame this new administration for the very thing they were illegally doing all along and the biased media reports it as fact. We now have some major issues on the table because of the failed national security polices that have allowed North Korea, Iran, China and Russia to operate without guidelines. Trump has some major problems to deal with in these countries aggressive tactics especially with Korea now sending up missiles toward Japan and threatening nuclear attacks on them and US(A). At least the economy is seeing some life once again and the job's are coming back with many corporations starting to reinvest in the nation. Now if we could just get the dem's to lay side their partisanship and work with Trump maybe we can become a great nation once again but we have those within our own party who are less than ideal as well, LATER
