Wednesday Morning

Well it warmed up yesterday into the low 70's yeow was that ever nice after a somewhat chilly start in the high 40's. The sun was bright with blue skies yet there was a slight breeze which made it almost a perfect day with little or no humidity.

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 and then lifted up several to my Creator for healing and comfort and to give thanks for my many blessings. I headed out around 9'ish for the rec. on my bike for two plus hours of pickle ball play and left with a wet shirt. I finally broke the 184 mark after my workout but of course that changes after eating two meals before going to bed. I'm hoping to stay somewhere between 184 and 185 but would like to see 180 before summer, oh well. The spare tire has shrunk slightly but I suppose with age I'm stuck with the sag in the middle and no longer a six pack.

I worked in the garden after the rec. until lunch time which was just a salad and then read outside in the sun for a couple hours. We had to leave around 3:30 for Ava's basketball game at Keswick and then again around 7'ish for the Blessed Life study at the rec. with several other BridgePointers. Ava's team seemed like they were still tired after the three games over the weekend in the tournament. This team from Bradenton was well coached and had two complete teams to replace each other every few minutes and the fresh legs were evident on the court. We saw Keswick only lose for the second time this season. They have three more games with the last home game on Friday and then two games in the Tampa area the week after next.

The Botbyl's invited us up for supper after I made a trip down to St.Pete to pickup Dan who dropped a truck off at a muffler shop but as it turned out that trip was not necessary as Carol got her wire crossed, oh well. She had a pot of nokkie soup and Danielle and baby stayed for supper as well. The baby Palmer is a cutie and growing like a weed. I picked them up a little before 7 as the class was being held in the rec. building up stairs in one of the class rooms which is very nice. Seems there were two classes being held in the building. We had about 20 folks or so to do the study by the book by Robert Morris titled the Blessed Life. Looks like it will be very interesting and many in the class are in our Life Group. Should be fun as well, LATER
