Well Friday was another very warm and muggy day but this morning its so foggy outside you can barely see down the street. I started the day much the usual with a before 6 roll out to a cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble then spent a few quiet ,moments with my Creator in humble thanksgiving for another day and all the blessing in life as well as lifted several up by name. I headed out on my bike before 8 for the Rec. where I got in two solid hours of pickle ball. What a workout and I left with a wet shirt and worn out body. I made a stop at the library on the way home for some reads I had ordered.
I piddled around in the yard mulching up leaves and spreading them around in the garden for the worms. They love oak leaves and they turn them into the best plant food ever but they have to be broken down for that to occur. I spent the rest of the morning working in the garden, transplanting some volunteer cucumber seedlings from my compost pile and hand watering the garden as well as the grass. Eventually in the afternoon I hand watered the front yards as I'm finally starting to see some green where the piled broken branches from the big oak lay for weeks killing all of the grass after the last hurricane.
After a lite lunch we headed over to Home Depot for items Nancy needed to finish her decorating with a new lamp shade and some daylight LED bulbs. Boy are they expensive but really give off the light. I did pick up from the garden section a black beauty egg plant and some soil with cow manure composted. She spent the most of the morning getting her vegetable tray ready for this evening(SAT) get together with our Life Group from church. We are expecting over 30 folks to attend our house for appetizers and then three other stops throughout the evening for a progressive dinner. Should be fun as we get to know our group more intimately other than just on Sunday mornings.
I spoke with Paw Paw, Helen and GG and all are doing as well as can be expected for their ages which all are 90 on just a year away on either side. Nancy had deer steak marinating for fajitas for our supper and were they ever delicious as I grilled the peppers and onions, Yeow that is some fine eatin'. After supper which was running late as Betsy came by to see the new furniture it was after 7. We were tuning into the news when we saw on one of the HBO channels a movie we saw last year with our group and decided to watch it again. It is a Christian movie and the acting and storyline is very good in the Resurrection of Gavin Stone. I headed for the shower after the flick then watched some of the Olympics, Gold Rush and Fox news before signing off at 10, Later
