Thursday morning

Well it was definitely another warm day on Wednesday but changes are coming this weekend which will be a relief from the heat and humidity. After lunch it was just to hot out to do much of anything but stay inside and read. I had a great workout in the morning on the pickle ball court and then did some garden work until lunch time. Nancy and Amy baked another batch of Christmas cookies after lunch and put them in the freezer so as to add them next week when she does a marathon day of baking.

I started the day much the usual with before 6'ish roll out to my cup of hot tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble and then spent some quiet time with my Creator in thanksgiving and lifting up several by name for comfort and healing. The update on GG is somewhat better and Nancy spoke with her on the phone and she sounded lucid and was sitting up in a wheel chair. Maybe the antibiotics are working against the UTI which causes her to talk out of her head. Her O2 level is better but she is still in the hospital which she said her room was beautiful and very spacious. I spoke with Paw Paw for a spell he seemed quite well as we reminisced about several in the family. He sounded strong and said he was doing good on the stairs which was his workout and good for him. I thought so as well as the climbing is good for him but he said he uses his cane for balance and takes his time on the stairs.

Amy and Eliza Faye came for lunch and she is such a cutie and becoming so grown up in so many ways. She loves to dance and do ballet especially with the Christmas music Nancy had on the player. She of course helped with the cookie baking by adding the sprinkles to the top. She came in to tell me there were cookies she made if I wanted one. I did put together a present for Annsley which took me a couple of hours just figure out the directions. I only had to take apart one section once which was encouraging as the schematics are less than clear, oh well. After Amy left to pick up Ava and Sam Nancy took off on her bike for a ride through the hood and I read until it was time for supper.

We had fried fish which I love with asparagus and a fresh garden salad. I finally reached the 189 level for the first time in months before I headed out for pickle ball and even saw 188 after playing for two hours. My goal is 180 but since its taken me a month to drop from 197 I'm hoping for 185 by the first of the year. I have been reducing my portions and just an occasional dessert and in addition to the two hours of workout 5-6 days a week the excess spare tire is going down. I love the feel I get when working out.

Well after the supper clean up we settled into Fox News the only channel that brings fair and balanced reporting. The dem's are showing just how corrupt they are with this biased investigation of our POTUS. The hypocrites in Hollywood and among the liberal congressman are getting their due as well with all of the sexual harassment allegations they learned from their mentor Slick Willy. Finally a couple are resigning from the congress and further investigations are being conducted into the Mueller fiasco of destroying this president with innuendos and false reporting with the major networks. I want to see all of the biased fake networks have to apologize. They are the biggest hypocrites ever and now we see where their CEO's are being investigated for harassing subordinates. The chickens have come home to roost for many and it disturbs me so many on the left still idolizes these sycophants of Hillary and Obama who are the most corrupt political figures ever, especially the Clinton crime family, LATER
