Tuesday Morning..Feb 18th

Well Monday was another almost summer like day around mid morning and into the afternoon with high heat and humidity and lots of bright sunshine. I started the day with a later than usual roll out so I posted this ramble after getting back from two hours of pickle ball outside with three other good players. We left with wet heads, shirts and just plain worn out. It was a great time of exercise and good play and my partner and I beat a couple Canadians in 5 sets.

I did do my quiet time and checked the birthdays on FB before heading out. All seem well as can be expected for those I lift up daily for comfort and healing to my Creator and Lord. There are several who we know and love who are hurting due to the loss of their loved ones and we lift them up as well. Our twin grand sons seem to be improving a little with their reflux with some new medicine. We are heading over to them later today(tue) after pickle ball to give Katie a chance to rest and for us to love up on them. We will stay late and I'll go to the baseball practice with Bobby and Gabe.

I piddled around in the gardens harvesting green tomato's and egg plants for frying for our lunch as Amy and her kiddos all come for lunch. They all love these except for Eliza which still seems to be recovering from her bout with the high temps and cold symptoms. Ava Mae loves them and she ate as many as I did. I also harvested fresh cilantro and dill to garnish them with and they were delicious to say the least. After they left I headed to drop off some things for the Keswick thrift store, air up my tires and then make a stop at Home Depot.

I did turn on the Daytona 500 around  4'ish and we watched it to its final which ended with a very horrendous crash at the finish line. I'm not sure how the driver survived but it seems he did and with no life threatening injuries the last we heard. We decided we wanted to watch the "WASHINGTON" series on the History channel and it was a good portrayal of our independence from England with Washington as the general leading the continental army against a very powerful foe. We watched that until 10 and then it was off to horizontal lab for me. The Lightning were winning 2-1 when I checked the score before retiring for the night.

I want to give a big shout out and HAPPY BIG DAY to our "mountain mom" Helen as she turns 92 years young today. She is a courageous gal living alone and at times looking after her younger sister and older brother who both have some health issues. Blessing on her and we love her dearly, LATER
