Tuesday Morning April 21st

Well Monday started out with overcast skies and a front moved quickly through bringing us some much needed rain once again but the skies cleared and the sunshine became so evident I hung a load of laundry outside on the clothesline.

I started the day much the usual with a before 6 roll out to my usual routines that start with the cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric. This herb is an anti inflammatory and great for the joints and for anyone who has had some injury or operation in the past. I have noticed a great positive difference in my old bones and joints from the back operation while serving in the USAF, to knee hyper extensions and general malaise at times. I use it daily, anyhow after digressing I did my quiet time with my Creator lifting up several by name including our Potus Trump, the military and members of the "badge family" all of which I subscribe to. The update on our new twin grandsons who were hospitalized last week is a good report. They are home and seem to be back to normal in looks and their eating and sleeping habits. We still think the formula was the culprit but we may never know what caused them to become so violently ill. We can only praise GOD for their miracle healing and say Thanks to so many for their prayers.

I got ready a little before 8 and headed over to a local church where one of the members who is an advit pickle ball player lined the outside basketball court with the dimensions of a pickle ball surface. We had 5 players show up and the action was steady for 2 hours. It was great to get back to playing again and we all left with a soaked shirt. We are planning to play again on Wednesday morning. The church and court are in a very secluded area with no visible means to be seen by the public. So we do not have to worry about the quarantine police which is totally ridiculous. Being outside is the best way to thwart this virus whereas being inside only helps with its spread, oh well. I loaded up one of the players a large mess of collard greens as he came by the house afterwards. We all stood outside so he and his girls never came inside the house.

Well after lunch I chilled watching You Tube videos from true crime to travel adventures. I really love this channel and you get a good sense of what other areas of the world you can travel to vicariously. Time just flies as well. It stayed around 80 until the front came through but the humidity was terrible until late afternoon when a nice northern breeze from the front cooled things down and made it bearable for our 7:30 bike ride. We did probably 5 miles or more at a fast pace through the hood. We came back and watched Tucker on the FOX News channel then it was time for a shower for me. Afterwards I watched a little TV before lights out for at 10, LATER
 Not sure why Nancy put this old piece of furniture I restored 35 years ago and sits in our living room on the blog.
