Well Friday saw some changes in the weather as we had sunshine to start the day with some rain clouds and by late afternoon the skies darkened and the rain fell. I did not have to hand water the gardens today but did harvest a nice mess of lettuces and kale and cleaned them for a huge salad.
I started the day much the usual with a 6'ish roll out to my cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and ginger while I posted this ramble then spent some moments with my Creator in thanksgiving and lifting up several by name who are infirmed and suffering some life threatening illness. My list grows each day. I especially want to lift up our POTUS who is doing his best to MAGA despite the radical dem's and progressives on the left who care nothing about the safety of us Americans and our culture. It's down right despicable such hate filled folks were elected to the congress and now we see their biased actions and evil attitudes to destroy this man, his family and those of us who love this nation.
I headed out around 8 on my bike for a couple hours of pickle ball play at the Rec. and left with a wet shirt. The achilles seems to be healing and I suffered no pain during the workout. I made a stop at the library on the way home for a couple new reads. I did piddle around in the garden but saw where the rain was coming in later in the day so I did not hand water. The new lettuce seedling seem to be doing well despite the falling oak leaves which cover them in the garden. I'm betting the oaks will bud out early this year as its been so warm with all of the leaves on the tree now drying up and falling in the yards and gardens.
Nancy took off to shop for LeeLee's birthday which is this month so I laid around and read the afternoon away. We had salmon filet's baked in the oven with fresh cauliflower and a salad for our supper. I've dropped 4 pounds so far since New Years as we've stayed away from carbs and my beer at lunch and the sweet things. We do have a handful of mixed nuts around 4'ish with my glass of red vino and nothing after supper. So far so good with only 6 more pounds to go, LATER
Keep Amy, Tyler and the grand kiddos in your thoughts and prayers for traveling mercies as they left Kansas on Friday on their way home to Seminole. They stopped overnight somewhere in Mississippi and then will drive on in today.
