I started the day with a well before 6 rollout. Seems this time change has my bowels moving at the old time around 6'ish when its really 5'ish. I'm just glad they are working properly, oh well. I just stay up for the day as Nancy has her chain saw running wide open. I'm thrilled I usually sleep through the night so I'm getting plenty of rest and sleep. I did my morning routines that always start with a handful of Nutrilite vitamins and supplements washed down with a cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric while I post this ramble then spend some quiet time with my Creator. All seem as well as can be expected for those I lift up daily by name as I've heard nothing to the contrary. I lift up our patriotic potus Trump as well as he is being excoriated by those on the left and in the dem party to cover their corruption which they are accusing him of doing. Our nation is at a turning point if these libs get into office.
I headed out a little before 8 on my bike to the Rec. for a good solid two hours of pickle ball play with non stop action. We had three courts in action and some really great rallies. I'm getting built back to my old standard of play which is good for the body and the burning away some of this spare tire. I'll be glad when all of the left over desserts are gone and then I can work on my weight that way. I just can not see food go to waste even if its not the best for you such as cheesecake, oh well. One more day and that will be gone as well.
We took off after lunch to vote for a fellow who was running against an incumbent mayor who has done nothing for our firefighters and who we know as a church member. The last word we heard was she had beaten him out to stay in office for another term but now that he has his feet wet with this running for office maybe he will prevail later. We stopped by the post office to look into getting passports as we will need them for our trip next September to Alaska on a cruise with fellow friends. I still had my old passport from the service and that can be used to assure my citizenship. They are not cheap to get either which is a little surprising at a cost of over 300 bucks for the two of us, oh well and its good for only 10 years.
We will make an appointment later in the Spring around April as they usually take 5-6 weeks to obtain and we will need them before we leave for the mountains next June. It was too hot to do much outside until late evening so I did hand water the gardens and yards a couple times during the afternoon. I now have radishes up after just 3 days in the ground as well as a couple cucumbers seedlings. I'm slowly but surely getting the garden going but hand watering a couple times a day. Thankfully the well is doing O.K., LATER
It seems the pics are back using Nancy's new phone. This is a scene of the orchids and fern our mountain mom Helen gave years ago which continue to grow without any attention. The orchids are now in full bloom and this was from a few days ago.
