Friday Morning

Well Thursday was a sleep in morning for me until nearly 7'ish which was kind of nice since it was in the 40's and a bit nippy but it soon warmed up the the high 60's by late afternoon with bright sunshine and clear blue skies. I didn't head to the gym until 9:30 so the sleep in didn't effect my morning routines.

I did my usual routines that start with a cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and fresh ginger while I posted this ramble then lifted up several by name. I spoke with sister Pat who is now caring for Paw Paw at her retirement house in W.Va. and she mentioned they all were under the weather with a bad cold but felt everyone was starting to get a little better. They were anticipating some snow in the future as another cold front was moving into the area and then down in our mountains around our cabin. "Mountain mom" Helen said it was miserably cold and windy there and another snow was expected any moment.

I headed out on my bike for a good two hours of pickle ball play at the rec. with A players and worked up a good sweat. It had warmed up considerably by lunch time when I headed home. We had a late lunch for our big meal of the day as were attending Ava Mae's basketball game at Keswick at 4 PM. The temps had started to drop a little by ten and you needed long pants and a long sleeve shirt or jacket by the time the game was over. Her team won again and she scored 6 points and was awesome on defense and assists. She is becoming quite the player. We stayed and watched the boys play to halftime then headed home around 6. The temps had really dropped and once again it was supposed to get down into the 40's over night.

I watched the Fox Cable News until the Lightning Hockey game came on and then I headed to the bedroom to watch the game after a hot shower. The Carolina Team was a good team and lead nearly the whole game until the final period when the Lightning put together some great plays and won 3-1. They are the best team in all of the NHL and seem to be proving it every time they get on the ice. Well that was about it for the day except the liberal dem's continue to prolong this shutdown without any support for our POTUS to secure the border from the illegals, shame on them and I certainly hope American will remember this in the next election, LATER
