Thursday Morning

Well Wednesday was another hot dry day with temps in the middle 90's and no rain until late evening when we actually heard thunder and then skies opened up for a few minutes and we could see where the street was wet out front. It didn't last long but was some relief for the grass at least. We had a large crowd for lunch with Bobby coming first then leaving before Amy and Eliza and finally Aunt Diane, GG and Matt. They all stayed until after 2'ish then Diane took GG and Matt down to the Miami area where she will stay until coming back next week for a couple of days before flying out to Michigan.

I started the day with my usual before 6 roll out and did my morning routines that started with a cup of green tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble then spent some quiet moments with my Creator. GG is still having anxiety issues and now Paw Paw is thinking about going back to the Winchester house which only has a bathroom on the second floor. That is going to be a big problem in my estimation which could be disastrous with another fall, oh well. He is walking with a walker which is a great achievement and finally out of the bed and the wheel chair. According to his doctor he is recovering wonderfully considering his age and prior ailments. He is not to drive at all until at least September when he goes back for a checkup. I'm amazed they would even consider that option.

I headed out to the Rec. for nearly two hours of pickle ball and left with a wet head and shirt. Nancy was at her heart doctor and he said she didn't need to come back for another year which is good news. I hand watered the garden and then harvested more sweet onions that were as big as a tennis ball. They sure take a long time to mature but once they do they are so sweet and delicious. I have several drying in the sun as I'm trying to keep them from rotting in the ground. I finished up some Mexican leftovers for my lunch then retired to the reading room after everyone left. Nancy decided she needed a fancy pair of sandals for her broken toe for the wedding so she was off to the shoe store so I took a short nap.

We had a home made pizza for supper as we wanted to use up some items in the fridge along with a salad. I tuned into the Fox News and learned the Dem's are really trying to thwart Trump at every turn with their false allegations and innuendos. They cry wolf so much that finally a special investigator was appointed and I hope he finally investigates the corrupt Obama and Clinton's in their part of this undermining of Trump and his administration. Trump is doing his best to drain the swamp and make the country great again but is getting no cooperation from the Dem's and even some within his party. The country is in a mess socially with the racial divide, killing of the police and the idiots who are called academia. The former FBI Comey was a joke when he let Hillary slide for her crimes while in office. Hopefully this former director will uncover those crimes along with the treasonous actions by Obama. The media will never report the truth except maybe for a few brave souls on FOX. I'm discouraged that O'Reilly was the fired from FOX and even have my doubts on their reporting the truth without bias because of these made up accusations by the liberals towards Bill and those who hate Trump as well, LATER
