Well Tuesday was another warm day with some humidity creeping back into the picture as we had some clouds off an on during the day an at times it sure looked like rain; but none fell. Anyhow about the only remarkable happening was son Bobby came by for a quick visit which seldom happens since he is now mainly in the office and not out on the road over seeing jobs.
I started the day with my usual before 6 roll out to a cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble and then spent so quiet time with my Creator in thanksgiving and intercessory prayers for many by name. I spoke with Paw Paw and he said it had warmed up close to the 70's and he was eating some ice cream out on the porch. He sounds good and not much happening in his life except life itself. GG sounded good when I last spoke with her as did Helen. Helen had her 90th birthday party over the weekend with son Rick flying up from Florida and having the luncheon catered. We did send her a nice bouquet of flowers. My friend Shelby had her tummy surgery and is home recovering as I write.
Well I headed out a little before 8 for the Rec. on my bike for a couple hours of pickle ball. I got in a good hour inside with some good play but then we got too many B players and had to give up our challenge court so 5 of us headed outside to play for nearly an hour. Yikes, the wind, sun and humidity really changes the game itself but we hate to sit around waiting to play. I headed home a little after 10 to hand water the gardens as Nancy was at the dentist for a cleaning.
Amy and Eliza came for lunch so I did a little reading until Bobby came by for a visit. He has a great job as the director in the southeast states of the country for renovations for this national company. He is such a great people manager and gets the most out of folks while treating them with dignity and respect. We caught up on his and Katies weekend away to St. Augustine with 2 other couples and all that's going on with Gabe in baseball and Annsley with her gymnastics. He and Katie are so busy with her stay at home job and their togetherness with the kiddos.
Nancy sauteed shrimp in a garlic butter sauce and I harvested fresh Swiss chard for our supper, delicious. I'm not sure how much longer the chard will last as it not a big fan of hot weather. The green beans are really starting to set. Today I will harvest collard greens and put a pot on to cook mid morning with some smoked bacon, onions and chicken broth and along with some grilled pork chops we will have a country supper, LATER
