Well Monday found me back on the pickle ball court and the knee held up just fine and I even wore my brace which was probably more a psyche thing than anything else. I played hard and won most of my games but I cut it back to an hour and half instead of the 2-3 hours which I had been doing before.
I started the day with a before 6 roll out to my morning routines that start with the cup of tea while I post this ramble then some quiet time giving thanks to honor my Creator and Lord and then lifting several up by name for healing. All seem well. I rode out on my bike to the Rec. around 7:30 as several players were already there. The play was good with some long rallies and while I was cautious at times because of the knee it never gave me any trouble or concern. I was welcomed back by all.
I came home and worked in the garden until lunch time setting out the last two Celebrity tomato plants and then transplanting a couple dozen marigold seedlings that finally germinated from last years seeds. I hand watered after hoeing all of the veggies. I now have some of the onion seeds I sowed a week ago breaking ground. I've never grown onions from seeds but I'm excited to see how they do as they are the big sweet type. No one carries the onion sets or seedlings here anymore, just the seeds which I had my doubts but decided to give them a try.
I read after lunch and then we headed out to the Nymark's for supper and cards. Initially it was just the 4 of us but their close friends came late and we played two rounds of games. The guys prevailed in Euchre and the Oh _ell game was won by Steve. It was close to 10 before we headed out for the house. The chicken and dumplings that Steve made were awesome along with Nancy's fresh garden salad and Sandy dessert. What a fun evening. Its a busy week for us with the twins birthday on Saturday at Busch Gardens and an outdoor concert on Friday night just to name a few. Nancy keeps us involved with all these social outing, LATER
