Well winter has come back to the area with temps in the 60's and cloudy skies but the day was perfect for working outside I did that for the biggest part of the day and even sat outside reading for a couple hours until it started cooling off in the late afternoon. We still have the a/c on as its a tad bit humid.
I started the day much the usual with 6'ish roll out to my cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and fresh ginger while I posted the ramble from Monday's activities then spent some quiet moments with my Creator in thanksgiving for our many blessings and just life itself as well as lifted several up by name. All seem as well as can be expected at this point in time but some are suffering some severe illnesses and comfort is what is needed. I continue to lift up our POTUS Trump and those who love this nation as well as our men and women in the military and in law enforcement. I pray those who are trying to destroy our culture and nation will be handled by our Creator in a fitting way and the corruption within our gov't will be exposed as well. I pray for mercy for those who find it political to kill the innocent in the womb and after birth as means to garner votes.
Well since the rec. is closed all week that means no pickle ball so we did a bike ride in the afternoon and I did get in some garden work as well as mowed the yards. The grass is really growing and oh so green after giving it some much needed fertilizer. Most all of the trees in the 'hood have new leaves and the heavy rain the night before washed all of the pollen away and with it most of the fuzzies. Every tree is showing new light green. I need to start collecting some bagged oak leaves that folks leave out for the garbage men for my garden as my once large oak is gone. I do get a few from the back yard oak but not nearly enough to feed my worms in the garden through out the summer while we are gone.
I pulled another 4 tomato's and more jalapeno peppers as well as another cucumber. I have tons of lettuces really for harvesting as well as more sugar peas. The collards are ready to be harvested as well and I'm running out of who to give them too. Bobby came for lunch and then we made plans to go over to Brandon for another during the week game on Thursday but we will leave earlier this time so as to miss the heavy rush hour traffic.
Nancy's cousin Chris and husband Bill came in during the night from cold snowy Pennsylvania and spent the night before heading down to her brothers place in Sarasota. They will come back next week and spent another night before heading back home. I had gone to bed by the time they got in around midnight, LATER
