Friday Morning Dec 30

Well 2022 is about gone and what a year, but I'm thrilled to be able to still function, exercise, work hard, love life and most of all honor the Lord. Thursday started out much the usual with a well before 6 roll out to my routines that start with some quiet time after posting this ramble to lift up several after giving thanks for another day. Those who I lift up by name are holding on despite some age and health issues. I headed out on my bike around 7:30 to the rec and finished up my talk with the Creator on the way.

I played hard for two solid hours and left whupped with a wet head. The outside temps were up close to 70 which made for a perfect rest of the day and morning to work in the gardens and yards. I fed some of the seedlings and then hand watered the gardens and front yard. I'm trying to get the grass back in the growing mode since I have a several bare spots that I have chopped up and removed the dead grass and weeds. After a lunch of salad from the garden I headed out to set under the back yard oak and read for a couple hours until it was supper time.

We wanted to leave around 5 for Keswick to watch Ava's basketball game and it was a close one during the first half. The coach didn't play Ava until the second half and her aggressive play turned the game around for the team and they won by 20 points. At one time they were down a few points and tied at half time, but Ava came in and scored 6 points immediately and stole the ball from their best player a couple of times. She deserved the best player award and the coach commented on her play as well after the game.

We stayed for the first half of the boys game then dropped the Ross kiddos off at home while Amy and Tyler who was working the admission gate stayed until the end. I watched the last two periods of the Lightning game and they came from a goal down to winning in a shoot out. Great play and these players are real athlete's in my book. It's the best sport to watch as well except for some fighting which adds to the toughness of the game. I hit the sack around 10'ish for some horizontal shortly after the game, LATER
