Wow what a day of firsts; great worship with out local church BridgePoint on line and then later in the morning with Jack Hibbs at Calvary Church in California. Jack is one of the most learned speaker/preachers about the prophesy in the Bible I'm ever heard and another first is the Bucs won in their home stadium the big game against a team every sports caster picked to win. The game was exciting and our defense along with the great Tom Brady played excellent.
I started the day on Sunday with a sleep in since our campus isn't ready for folks yet and we watched on line. I did my usual routines that start with a cup of hot green tea while I posted this ramble and then spent some quiet time with my Creator and Lord in thanksgiving and lifting up several. We thought our dear friend Kathryn was coming home from the hospital but she had a set back with her body to retain oxygen so she will be there until she can maintain a certain level without forced air. She sounded terrible to say the least and I just hope she does recover.
I headed out after a late semi mountain breakfast of sausage, eggs and toast to piddle around in the gardens after worship. We got a heavy rain fall sometime during the night and the gardens were wet until later in the afternoon when I hand watered. The air was warm and the sun was bright and with this sandy soil it doesn't take long for the soil to dry out. I harvested Amy a nice bunch of collards and noticed the new Bibb seeds are showing some colors. The other lettuces are adding leaves as well and we will soon have romaine and loose leaf lettuces. I also harvested a huge mess of curley leaf kale for the Zuppa soup we were taking to the Super Bowl supper at the Botbyl's.
I read for a couple hours and started a new book titled The NIGHTINGALE. Wow, I love this author who I had never heard of Kristin Hannah. She is writing about the French resistance during WWII. It's an historical novel and what I have read so far is very real about that time.
Well I must say I'm surprised the BUCS played so well and Brady was great for an older guy who is without a doubt the great QB of all times as his records prove him to be so. The press are very critical of him because he is a conservative and came out for Potus Trump. He is a team player and leaves his talking on the field as it should be and the team played really well beating this young team from Kansas City. The first half was much closer than the second half as the Bucs kept this young elusive QB scrambling to find his open receivers. Great Job Bucs and I'm still out on the politics of the NFL and their disrespect for the anthem and the flag, LATER
