Well Friday was a basically a fun day that saw us with some rain and it was a welcomed relief after nearly a week with hot temp and a drying out breeze. I did not have to water the garden or the yards for a change. We met up with our life group from BridgePoint at 5 to share finger foods and then play Bunco which requires a large group or at least 8 folks. We had 18 players total with one youngster who was the 9 year old grand son of the folks house we were at.
I started the day much the usual with a before 6 roll out to my cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and fresh ginger while I posted this ramble and then spent some quiet time with my Creator in thanksgiving and some intercessory prayers for many by name. All seem well as can be expected. I got ready and headed out on my bike for two hours of pickle ball at the rec. Our numbers have lessened down over the past couple of weeks but we still have enough A players to make the activity fun and challenging. I got a ride home as the rain was rather heavy then rode back with Nancy when she drove to the rec. for her workout, so I could ride my bike home.
We settled into some lunch and I finished up the ham and bean soup along with some ham salad on crackers. I spent the next couple hours reading and eventually took a power nap some time during the afternoon. Nancy was busy with her prep work for the concasio dip and salsa we were bringing to Bunco Night as well as making 70 some jalapeno poppers for Ava's birthday supper on Saturday evening. All of the jalapeno's I grew and they are still producing. One of the best years ever for growing them and I attribute it too spraying the plants with liquid epson salts almost weekly as well as spraying the tomato plants which have just gone crazy this year with bearing fruit.
Bunco was a hoot and this is the first time I ever rolled three bunco's through out the evening and Nancy was he big winner overall on the total number of wins. It was a great evening of food and fun and then afterwards we did some cleansing of the soul with prayer requests and sharing from the heart. It was after 9 when we finally left there. We dropped Dan off as Carol was still under the weather from her earlier cold.
I hit the shower then watched the Carolina Hurricanes beat the N.Y. Islanders in OT for the Stanley Cup playoffs 1-0. Wow what a great game, LATER
