Well Friday was another busy day that started out with a before 6 roll out. It turned out to be another warm muggy day so the a/c is still on while Nancy's mom is experiencing a record snowfall in Michigan with 10 inches or so on the ground and still falling, yeow.
I had my cup of hot 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 several up by name for healing and comfort. I headed out a little before 8 on my bike to the Rec. for two hours of pickle ball and left with a wet shirt. Wow, what a workout. We have two new players from New York visiting and one of them own's a warehouse where he has three pickle ball courts as that sport is really taking off in his area. He was pleasantly surprised by the caliber of play at our Rec. which was quite a compliment. They will be here for a couple more weeks on vacation.
I stopped off at the library for a couple reads I had on order then headed home to hand water the garden. The new transplanted seedlings are looking good, except for one which the pesky squirrels dug out. Needless to say I ran them off each time I come in the back yard with my BB gun, oh well. I had lunch before Amy and Eliza came and hit the shower as I had a doctor's yearly checkup at the VA Hospital.
My blood work was awesome with great HDL cholesterol and the overhaul was at 199. My BP was 107 over 64 and the doctor was amazed for my age. I attribute it to pickle ball and being active. I had one issue as they now are checking all baby boomers for Hepatitis C and I had a reactive to the test. So the doctor had me go back to the lab for more blood tests. If that is affirmative then and ultrasound will be taken of my liver and the treatment is with a pill daily. The pill in the civilian world is 5 thousand bucks a pill, yikes but with the VA it's free since I'm a veteran. I probably contracted it some time while flying overseas during the Vietnam Era. Most people have no idea they have the disease and neither do I if that happens, oh well.
I worked outside in the yard until suppertime as I had several wheel barrow loads of fallen oak leaves that needed mulching and then spread into the garden for my worms to turn into casings which is the ultimate plant fertilizer. I have a great crop of worms in the garden as each shovel full of soil I turn over are filled with wiggling worms. That kept me busy until supper time as we ate late around 6:30. I took apart the homemade coffee table that I made for Amy years ago and then we had it in our house for a couple years but now it doesn't go with Nancy's new furniture which is coming next week. I will take it with me to the cabin and reassemble it there.
We settled into the Fox News after the cleanup from a Marie Callendar's chicken pot pie and fresh broccoli and mushrooms, yeow so delicious. We are learning more each day of the corruption in D.C. and the need to drain the swamp. I'm just amazed at how many in the congress are being exposed at their willingness to destroy this Potus and his agenda. The Clinton's are the most corrupt people ever and they were right in there with Obama to retain power and completely ruin this nation. I'm hoping all of these corrupt folks will go to prison for their complicity to destroy the will of the people in the last election especially the FBI heads and those in the DOJ who conspired with them. Its a shame the MSM has failed to report the truth and they too are a willing partner to destroy our Potus. May they all fail and go bankrupt as investigative journalism is null and void. They have become a willing accessory to the liberal left leaning dem's and the special interests who care little about middle America, God Help US(A), LATER
