Sunday Morning..HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Well just got back from the load in at SPC for BridgePoint Church so I'm a little late. It will be nice when we can find a permanent building to call home here in the Seminole area, oh well all in GOD's timing.

Saturday was a mixture of fun and games with some work thrown in for good measure. It also was a first for us as we played a game called Bunco with 12 others in our Life Group from BridgePoint. I will explain later. I started the day much the usual with a little later roll out as we were out late on Friday night; so it was 6:30 before I started the day and then it was much the usual after that with a cup of tea laced with turmeric while I spent a few moments with my Creator and then posting this ramble. I headed out to the rec for two hours of pickle ball on what I thought was my bike being refurbished but quickly found another major problem with the hub where the pedals are attached. The bearings were bad there also so it was back to the bike shop for another major repair which is now the cost of a new bike but since the kids bought this bike for me a couple years ago I had it repaired. Hopefully that will last until I can no longer ride one or want to ride a bike.

We made a stop at Sam's after dropping the bike off and then again at Aldi's on the way home before Chick Filet for lunch. I knew we were having appetizers at the Nymark's house later in the evening so we skipped supper and settled for the salads, dips and various finger foods through the evening while we learned the game of Bunco. The game has 4 folks at one table with three dice and you roll through each sequence starting with 1-6 and we played 4 sets each of the 6. The scoring is a little complicated to explain but you have partners and if no one reaches all three dice of that particular number then the scores are added until you reach 21 points. It fast and furious and you change partners after each set or whenever someone calls Bunco. It took about an hour to play the 4 sets of six and you move between the tables. It's a hoot and it all comes down to the "roll of the dice". There is a winner each time for that team and there are losers at each table and the losers move to a different table. very fast game and exciting but you need at 8 players, I guess you could play with 4 but more is better.

We found ourselves home around 9'ish then I watched the Ray's finally win again in Baltimore after losing two straight. Lets hope the Lightning do better tonight in Tampa, Later
