Well Wednesday was another semi summer day with temps close to 90 and the humidity is rearing its ugly head once again. The early morning until around 10 was perfect and 4 of us played pickle ball outside for an hour and a half on the outside court at the Rec. One of our group purchased a separate net so we could play on the court that had been lined for the game.
I started the day with the usual before 6 roll out to my cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble then spent some quiet time with my Creator and Lord in humble thanksgiving and lifting up several by name for comfort and healing. All seem as well as can be expected and the one person who we personally know who was tested positive for the virus after a plane trip out west has recovered and has been under quarantine along with his family. Everyone else that we know are doing just fine despite the bias msm pushing this virus into panic mode to destroy our duly elected potus Trump, who by the way has done an amazing job considering the false news spewed by those who are filled with the TDS.
The congress lead by the speaker Pelosi and then again in the senate by Schumer have been nothing but an obstacle to helping the real needs of those infected by this virus. It's despicable that we have elected congress folks with their hypocritical and obstructionist plans to destroy Trump at the expense of those in need. I certainly hope they get their just reward in November and are sent packing forever from the gov't. They should go anyhow after robbing the nation and becoming multi millionaires while in the gov't for decades. Shame on them and those who elected them.
Well I came home and worked in both the gardens and yards. A pickle ball buddy came by and dropped off several large trash cans of dried up oak leaves for my garden which will help feed my worms while we are gone this summer and add compost to the gardens. Since we took out the huge oak tree in the front yard my oak leaf surplus has been cut by 3/4 of what I use to get each year for the worms. I harvested some lettuce for him and then later 3 egg plants for our supper and a green tomato. Nancy fried them up and we doctored them with fresh herbs; delicious to say the least.
I mowed both yards and then sprayed some weed killer along the boundaries of the fences and shrubs in the front yards. That kept me busy until lunch time. I took a couple hours during the heat of the day to read until 4'ish and then headed back outside to hand water the gardens until supper time. After eating those delicious veggies from the garden although fried, I headed back out as Nancy was on a simulcast with her women's group study until nearly dark around 8:30. I transplanted some St Augustine cutting I had growing in the garden. All had nice roots from cuttings I had made a couple weeks ago and transplanted in the bare spots in the back yard. I pulled weeds and then hand watered the front yard again as after mowing there were several brown areas. We need some rain.
Well I came in and watched a little of Fox Cable news before hitting the showers and then I watch the reality show about life in Alaska until a little after 10. The sandman was calling and I was soon out for the count. I did speak with our "mountain mom" Helen for a few after supper and she and her siblings are holding their own, LATER
