Well Tuesday was a busy day that started much the usual with a 6'ish roll out to my cup of hot green tea on this chilly morning laced with turmeric and ginger while I posted this ramble this spent some quiet time with my Creator in lifting up several by name. All seems well with them but we got a phone before I left for the rec. telling us a family friend and the father of Mike had passed away in his sleep. I believe he was in his late 80's with no real health issues that were pressing. We are saddened to hear of this news.
I headed out to the rec. at a later time as we A players have the gym from 10 to noon for our play which was exceptionally good with at times three courts in action. A few of the better B players mingled with their A partners as they get tuned up for a tournament next month. I'm not sure if I will play or not as of right now. I played until noon then headed home in a stiff north wind on my bike that was in the 50's but it did warm up to the low 60's as the sun finally came out.
We had a lunch of fresh salad then I worked on the new desk Nancy ordered on line from Wayfair. Well what a job after I unpacked this huge box with hundreds of parts and a direction at times was quite confusing. I mentioned after getting the base together we should probably finish the job in the room where it will rest; as getting the old desk out was not possible in one piece. So I deconstructed the old desk and we removed it from the computer room and put the base of the new desk in and then called it for the day. We still have several pieces to put together with lots of hardware for another time.
It was vino time at 5'ish and it was a welcome relief after stressing about the correct way to assemble the base of the desk. The Chinese must laugh at those who buy their products when deciphering the directions for constructing. So far everything fits. Nancy made a red spaghetti sauce with meat balls to take to Bobby's this evening (WED) as we watch the grand kiddos while he has a baseball meeting and Katie is away on business. We will leave here around 3 and hope to get there by 4'ish or so which can be rather tricky with all of the rush hour traffic. It will be late when we get back and then on Thursday evening we have another Ava basket ball game so we will be busy the rest of the week, LATER
