Well Tuesday was a mixture of fun and work with a ton of sunshine and some humidity. The temps reached close to 90 but the breeze kept it passable to be outside until after lunch. I started the day much the usual with a well before 6 roll out to my morning routines that always start with some quiet moments to give thanks, honor my Lord and lift up several by name. All seem well as can be expected.
I headed out on my bike around 7:30 as the better players now start on Tue. and Thur. at 7 AM at the Rec. so they won't have to play with some of the lesser players on the pickle ball court. Some of the better players just will not help out with these B players to get better, oh well. I like the exercise and the game and yesterday my old game was back as I teamed up with different players through out the morning and won every set. I kind of like helping those B players get better and of course the other 3 morning at do that with them.
I headed home around 9:30 and hand watered the gardens then decided since it was nice out with the breeze and little humidity that I would wash the truck and clean the insides. That kept me busy for a couple hours up to lunch time. I pulled the truck up into the grass area of the front yard and that helped with using the water for a drink on the grass. It's so dry here this time of the year and we are in need of some rain.
We found another queen bee and her ball of bees were fixed on the vine which is next door to Bobby our neighbor who raises bees. He had several hives in his back yard and this must have been one of his queens who moved out and into our yard. He caught them in a bucket then transfer them into a different hive. He has become quite the bee keeper and of course they help with pollinating my gardens and keeping me in honey. After lunch I settled into a new read titled RIDGELINE. It's an historical novel about the taming of the west and the confrontations between the Indians and the army. So far it's a great read revealing both sides of the taming of the west.
I harvested a beet so large it fed us for supper and it was delicious as well along with some leftovers. We are trying to eat down our freezers as well and eat light enough to lose some weight. I'm still 10 pounds heavier than last year this time. My shoulders are still bothering me from the fall I took face down but I'm able to function during the day but at nights they ache and make me sleep on my back which I'm not use too, oh well it could be worst. I'm able to play and work so I'm thankful, LATER
