Well Monday was another hot day with temps close to 90 but the humidity was not unbearable as I worked outside after pickle ball and then again after supper piddling around in the gardens and yards. I got in a decent workout at the rec. for nearly 2 hours before pedaling home on my bike. Nancy was at the dentist for a cleaning and x-rays and she scheduled me for next week for the same. At a 140 bucks a person no wonder the dentists likes us every 6 months but I choose to go once a year, oh well.
I started the day much the usual with a before 6 roll out to my usual cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and fresh ginger while I post this ramble and then lifted up several to my Creator as well as give thanks for my blessings in life. All seem well except for a 5 year old grand nephew who some how injured his wrist and contracted sepsis. He is in the hospital on antibiotics for a week or so and no one has any idea how this happened. Pray for Eli and his family. Everyone else seems to be as well as can be expected.
I grilled a couple rib eye's for our supper and they were marvelous and accompanied by some fresh steamed asparagus. We had a fresh garden salad for our lunch after eating hearty over the weekend with jalapeno poppers, concasio and salsas and smoked wings and then ice cream cake for dessert; it's no wonder I picked up a couple pounds when I got on the scale Monday morning. I didn't do much after lunch as the sun was blazing hot so I sat in the a/c and read until it was time to grill. I'm a big fan of James Lee Burke who writes about the south around the New Orleans area and from a detective perspective in the Dave Robicheaux series. He does flash backs to his time in Viet Nam and with the NOPD but is now in a small town north of the big city but still has connections. Interesting stories and his writing is very introspective.
Well that was about it as I tuned into the Ray's game but it was after 10 and the sandman was calling so I tuned out with the Ray's leading by a run in the 8th inning. I'll check the box scores later but they have been hitting the ball quite well so far and were leading the division over the Yankees, LATER
