Well Tuesday was a busy day that first started with some pickle ball then some outside gardening and then we had the Ross Family for grilled chicken for supper as Amy and Tyler had an afternoon appointment to have Eliza Faye's cast removed. The arm had healed very nicely but they wanted her to wear a brace when she was playing for a couple weeks to make sure one of the bones was completely healed.
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 and then spent some quiet time with my Creator lifting several up by name for healing. All is well as I spoke with Paw Paw, Dee the day before as she is doing quite well with her hip replacement, GG and Helen. Joe is still having feet and legs issues which is probably not going to go away except for some pain relief. He needs a ramp built into his front porch so he doesn't have to navigate those steep stairs; maybe this summer I can help with getting that job done for him with some help from Andy and Gerald. We tried to do that last summer but he refused the help but now he needs a cane to just walk so maybe we will get that accomplished for him.
I got in two hours of continuous pickle ball play before stopping off at the library for some new reads I had ordered. I'm down to 6 weeks of reading before giving that up for awhile as I'll be busy getting the cabin in order this summer. I'm looking forward to a change in scenery as well as some cooler weather and temps as well as getting my seeds in the ground for another growing season. I'm picking tomato's here 4 to 5 daily and so I gave away several to neighbors as well as eating 'mater sandwiches for lunch. Wow, these newest ones are ever loaded with flavor much like I remember them from days past. I also pulled several carrots and some where 8-10 inches long and full of flavor. The Ross grand kiddos ate them as quick as we could get them washed. I grilled a cut up chicken from Earthfare an organic store and it was very good and Nancy made parsley taters. I was reading where parsley is so healthy for you with all kinds of benefits. I remember days past when a sprig was served on your plate at eateries. Not only is it used for breath control but so many other good things for your body and I have two plants that I cut back every couple of days and it just lays on the ground and dies. I'm going to start using some everyday on my sandwiches and in my salads.
Well after they left for evening as it was a school night I watched the Ray's lose a very close game 2-1 to the Tigers in Detroit and then some hockey playoffs. The Lightning play tonight (Wed) in Boston which we hope will be a win for us but they are a very rough team and we will be on their ice, oh well. I'm heading off today to play at a different venue this morning for pickle ball as one of the better players is leaving tomorrow for Canada so we will have lunch out afterwards and then say goodbye until next winter when the snow starts blowing. He has a place here for 5 months out of the year and is a good PB player. We have a full schedule this week as we head to Brando at least once and maybe twice this week for baseball and school activities with Gabe and Annsley, a supper with the Cool Peoples Club here at the house and then our weekend with the Kentucky Derby party and of course all our church activities on Sunday, LATER
