Well this month is moving right along and this time next week Thanksgiving with be over and then we are just a month away from Christmas, wow, where has this year gone. I started Thursday with my usual morning routines that start with a before 6 roll out to my cup of tea while I post this ramble and then some quiet moments giving thanks for another day and all the blessings of life and family to my Creator and Lord and then lifting up several by name for comfort and healing. All are holding as far as I know but the nation is hurting with this inept moron in the white house who was never elected legally but inserted by the radical left and the corrupt main stream media. Its down right disgusting and heart breaking to see these traitors be in control and do away with everything that honest hardworking folks have acquired both morally and economically.
I headed out to the Rec for 2 hours of constant pickle ball play and left whupped on my bike ride back to the house. What a good work out and I held my game to a higher level with some much younger players. Its taken several days but my game has improved and the stamina level is good as well. I'm back playing in the top couple of seeds with these much younger players. I love the challenge and its helping me to get rid of a few pounds as well. We did break down after Ava's basketball game in Tampa and eat fast foods at Mickey D's on the way home as everything is packed with the folks. All of the roadways are like parking lots and all of the eateries are packed as well. You would never know gas os 3.35 a gallon with all of the vehicles on the road.
Ava played a great game and was the high scorer in their first game of the season but they lost with 4 seconds to go on a questionable foul which gave the player the chance to win with free throws and she sunk both of them, oh well. Her team mates missed so many easy layups and with the terrible passing it a wonder it was as close as the game was. Oh well she was great, scoring the first 9 points in the game and ended up with around 15 points. They played her tough and she got in foul trouble with some very questionable calls by the home team referees. They play this team again in Tampa in a couple weeks.
I watched the Lightening win in a shoot out in Philadelphia in a hard fought game and then it was lights out for me after a hot shower. Bobby's game we think was postponed due to rain and the game will be played in Brandon on Saturday as of now, LATER
Ava is #14
