Well Sunday was an awesome day of beautiful weather and great day of worship albeit on line with first Cornerstone which was prerecorded because of the virus going around and then with Jack Hibbs from Calvary Chapel in Chino Hills, California. Both had awesome messages. Nancy seems to be doing much better than either Amy or Katie did since she received the infusion. She hasn't totally lost her smell or taste although its has been altered. Thus far I'm taking care of her and doing O.K. with no symptoms. I either have already built up the antibodies to the virus or just been lucky. I know I've been exposed when Nancy was and of course we were sleeping together for several days before she started having the symptoms, oh well.
I started the day our much the usual with a 6'ish rollout to my routines of good vitamins and supplements washed down with a cup of hot tea before I do my blog and then my quiet times. Several are on my mind and heart for healing and comfort especially to middle sister Pat and her family. It was her oldest son John who succumbed to the virus and it has been an impact on all of our relatives. I headed out on my solo non stop hike to the top of the mountain around 7:30 and then down to Steve's campground where we chatted before heading back up our steep driveway. The extra climb is helping since I've been missing our late afternoon hike with Nancy. I'm trying to not wear down my resistance by over exercising but do so enjoy the morning hike which is necessary to staying healthy.
After the worship on line and my morning talk with GOD while on my hike I headed out to piddle around in the gardens picking more tomato's and cucumbers. The cukes are really slowing down and the fruit isn't nearly as large as before, but it was a good season for them and they still are blooming. The October beans have put on more leaves and are growing since I caught the cut worm which had cut off two of my nice plants and I dispatched him forever. The kales are still growing as are the beets and the greens. I sowed a couple containers of lettuces in hopes they will give me some green for the salad bowl in a couple weeks. The peppers are doing fine and I'm now saving the cilantro (coriander)seeds for future planting when I sow my winter garden in November in Florida.
The zinnias are in full bloom and I should have plenty of seeds from their heads for next years planting as well as the beautiful orange marigolds which are just beautiful this year next to the fire circle. I must say since removing so many trees from the backwoods yard the moss has nearly left the area and the grass is finally showing up big time. This year is the best ever for that area and it will need mowing again this week.
I made a semi mountain breakfast for us with sausage patties and egg on a biscuit, yeow was that ever delicious. I of course added a slice of fresh tomato and onion to mine along with a jalapeno pepper. Needless to say that held us until supper time except for a hand full of nuts while I watched the Ray's lose after being ahead in the 9th inning, oh well. Nancy is feeling better despite still being achey and a stuffed up nose as she was on the phone several times throughout the day. Our kiddos and family members are checking on us daily since she tested positive. It's seems we will be under quarantine for another 10 days or so and we will miss having Steve up for meals and cards plus entertaining friends for meals. Luckily I stopped at the library last week and still have a couple books to go as well as baseball on the laptop and of course You Tube documentaries, LATER
