Well Thursday was a mixture of play and work and some good eatin' and making friends at a pickle ball players luncheon. The weather is getting into that typical Florida summertime heat and humidity with temps in the middle 80's but a nice breeze in the evening made it pleasant to work outside after supper.
The day started much the usual with a before 6 roll out to my cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and fresh ginger while I posted this ramble and lifted up several to my Creator for healing and comfort. Just got word that Paw Paw who will be 92 in December was having some issues and was seen at the VA in W.Va. Seems he is having severe prostrate issues and is now back on a catheter until his next visit in April. I've heard if we men live long enough we will all have prostrate issues. I take a saw palmetto supplement everyday for the past several years in hope of thwarting that issue and so far it works; but I'm not his age yet, oh well. Everyone else is about the same or as well as can be expected due to their ages and health issues.
I headed out for nearly three hours of pickle ball play and then 9 of us players met for lunch at Big Jim's eatery in Seminole for a fine lunch. We laughed, cut up and told stories about his past years play as a few of us were either leaving this coming week or in the near future to back to the north. A couple of Canadians are facing a severe winter storm in their regions and are not looking forward to leaving this hot weather, oh well. We still have about a month and a half before we leave for the mountains. The temps there are really nice but it does drop down over night but the freezing cold is gone for now.
We took off for Sam's club to gas up and the price has gone up considerably the last couple of weeks to where its close to three bucks a gallon. We stocked up on a few things then made a couple more stops before getting back to the house with our goodies. After a very lite supper I headed out to hand water the gardens then mowed both yards and sprayed the yards with a liquid weed killer and fertilizer combined using the garden hose. Afterwards I set out some mouse/rat poison bait along the tomato plants. They have ruined at least a couple dozen beautiful fruits. It was close to 7:30 when I decided to call it a day and head in. We watched the Fox Cable News and once again were filled with hope the crooks and the corruption in the obama administration will be exposed and charged. Seems his white house counsel is being charged and we just need to get the head of the whole coup attempt which is obama himself and then Hillary. I would love to see the two put on trial for their crimes and exposed to the whole world of their criminal behavior.
After a hot shower I tuned into the other NHL playoff games and saw some great action. It wasn't long after 10 it was lights out for me and then some horizontal lab, LATER
