The day started much the usual with a 6 ish roll out and she stayed in the sack until after 8'ish. She is a night owl where I hit the sack with the chickens which was an old saying when the folks back in the day had no electricity. I remember times when we used coal oil lamps at the old home place when the power went out for a spell, oh well those were the days. I did my quiet times lifting up several by name as well as giving thanks for my healing which is slow but it seems to be on the way. I can't wait to get back to hiking and even the thoughts of playing pickle ball again has crossed my mind, despite a week ago thinking that would never happen.
Nancy made our first zucchini pie from our garden and it was so delicious for our supper. It's quite an ordeal with lots of prep work but well worth it in taste and flavor. We still have half of it leftover which is always better the second time, so we will have another supper. Those squash came from our circle drive which was over grown with weeds and grasses when we got here in June so I plowed it under and we decided to plants some perennials in the lower 2/3 of the bed and I had the upper 1/3 for squash and cucumbers which have done great. The rest of the garden is producing delicious beet greens, Swiss chard and kale as well as jalapeno peppers and lots of lettuces and herbs. A cut worn took out two of my okra plants which were 8-10 inches in height which was disappointing but I dug around the ones he cut off and found him and sent him away for good. I do have a couple tomatoes on the Big Boy 'mater plants, despite rain for a week and then drought for a week, oh well.
That was about it for the day as we will hopefully start on hiking next week and trying to get back into shape since all of our company is now gone. We did eat lots of breads which we love but adds inches and ounces to the body plus I was so inactive for nearly a month. I'm doing better but not a 100% yet despite wanting to be able to run and play, oh well, LATER
