Well this month is just flying by and already its about a week away from Christmas. You wouldn't know it here by the weather as today was a rather warm one with temps in the middle to upper 70's. It does cool down some what over night and its rather dry again so I'm hand watering the gardens at least and sometimes twice a day.
I started the day with my usual 6'ish rollout. I wasn't playing any pickle ball today due to attending the Christmas program at Keswick Christian School where Ava and Sam attend. It was just Sam this morning and he did a terrific job playing a musical instrument as well as pantomiming during the songs about the birth of Jesus. He is such a sweet inquisitive boy and loves to dwell on the facts about particular subjects. Some times he talks incessantly much like I was when all of my report cards always showed I had a problem with talking in class, oh well.
We made a stop at Wal-Mart on the way home and then again at Aldi's for some goodies. We headed home and Nancy started baking cookies again to ship to her mom in Michigan along with her presents. I took them to the Fed Ex and spent 33 bucks on shipping costs, yeow that was almost as much as the clothing, oh well. I headed out to the library to pick up a couple reads I had ordered on the way home. We decided to have fried egg plant and pork chops for our supper, either of which we hadn't eaten in some time. The egg plant was delicious when sprinkled with some red pepper and different fresh herbs from the garden especially Thai basil and thyme. The chops were grilled to perfection while we munched on the egg plant right out of the skillet after cooling on a paper towel.
We did get in a ride on the bikes around 4'ish through the hood since I missed my morning PB workout. The temps were a bit warm but with the evening coming on we could feel some cooling in the air which made for a great ride. Nancy stopped off at the Botbyl's for a visit while I hand watered the gardens. After the cleanup we settled into the Fox News Channel and are learning more each day of the corruption from within the last Obama administration as they first attempted to steer the election towards Hillary and then after she lost they tried everything to sabotage Trump with false innuendo and charges of collusion with the Russians to influence this election and now we are learning they paid for women to make false claims about sexual harassment towards him. There was a "deep state" with this collusion between the DOJ with Lynch as the AG and the FBI with Comey as the director. We will see all of this come out in the final IG report which may require another special prosecutor. Mueller needs to go as he is tainted with his hiring of mostly Clinton supporters and his close friendship of Comey and his failure to notify the congress months ago when it was learned that top leadership in the FBI was corrupted with the text messages and moved out of the interviewing process. This corrupted investigation and attempted cover up is very disturbing to our rule of law.
Well we are watching our Ross grand kiddos this evening as Amy and Tyler attend a deacon's meeting and supper. We will feed them supper and then watch a movie of some kind with them or play a board game. They are always so full of energy and fun to be around, Later
