Wednesday Morning Dec.18th

Well Tuesday was mostly a fun day with some garden work later in the day. It was overcast to start the day with some actual drizzle around 8ish but eventually it cleared and 6 of us played out side on the pickle ball court for a couple hours.

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 posted this ramble and then spent some time with my Creator and Lord giving thanks and lifting several up by name. Most are about the same as I've heard nothing to the contrary. There is still the push by the dems in the congress to impeach our duly elected potus which is just down right partisan and despicable as he is uncovering for all of us to see just how crooked and corrupt so many in the gov't were in the last administration. That is the reason they want to destroy this non politician but I must say he is a fighter and is not taking this lying down. I pray daily that GOD will prevail with keeping him intact and strong and showing the world this is His choice for America. He has done more for us Believers and for the nation of Israel than any other potus in decades.

Well I played hard for nearly 2 1/2 hours before finally calling it a day as the wind became a factor the last hour or so of play. We all left whupped and with a wet shirt and vow to continue playing outside as much as possible when the weather permits. It's a total different style of play than playing side the gym which has now become less than attractive. There are now so many B players and the lighting is less than good with so many over head lights burned out. I'm at a loss why they haven't been replaced as we have told the staff many times about this issue.

I hoed all the garden and loosened up the soil around many pulling weeds and this one grass that is so annoying. I now have more radishes up as well as the sugar peas are putting on second leaves. All of the tomatoes are loaded with blooms but thus far no small fruit have set. The green leafy plants are just going crazy with growth and I'm giving away more than we could ever use and now the many lettuce seedlings are close to being harvested for salads as well. The cucumber plants look the best ever and are starting to climb the fence.

I grilled deer burgers for our supper and they are beyond being delicious. I would never eat beef again if I could get deer. This meat was last years harvest and it was just awesome for grilling and the taste is so fresh and clean. You never have that after taste or feeling in your gut as deer has no steroids or hormones which beef is subjected too during their growing years. Maybe the reason this deer is so tasteful is because they eat my garden during the summer months, oh well.

We headed out just as a cold front approached with a severe storm warnings. It lightninged and thundered and then torrential down pours flooding the parking lot at Keswick School where we went to watch Sam's Christmas program. It was the 3rd, 4th and 5th grades time to shine and they did with a great program about the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. The nearly hour program was wonderful and delightful. When we exited the building there was standing water everywhere. We got back in time to watch some Fox Cable News and then I tuned into the Lightning vs Ottawa hockey game and the Bolts(Lightning) won in overtime after giving up a 3-1 lead, oh well. By 10'ish I was ready for some horizontal lab, LATER


A couple of pics from the program and that's grandson Sam (our first grand son) on the end of the third row wearing a blue shirt and glasses
