Well it was a bit nippy to start the last Saturday of this month but it did warm up enough by late evening to where a jacket wasn't needed to be out after dark. The wind finally died down which helped considerably. I piddled around in the gardens after my morning routines that start with some quiet time after posting this ramble to give thanks for another day and lift up several by name for comfort and healing. All seem as well as can be expected. There was no pickle ball this morning as the gym is being used by youth basketball until sometime in March so I took a nice long bike ride after lunch which got the heart rate up and help keep the leg muscles in tune.
I piddled around outside hand watering the gardens and once again filled the rat poison tray with pellets. My neighbor Bobby came over with some bait as well and we placed it in a couple different areas as we both think our yards are a buffet table. There must be a huge family of them somewhere as this poison should have killed a couple by now as its been a week since I first put the poison out. There is a house behind me that has some openings in the fascia board that could house rats in their attic and this must be where they are living, oh well.
I read and a watched You Tube travel videos for most of the afternoon until it was time to get ready for the Botbyl's for a supper of salad, Zuppa soup and crusty bread. Afterwards we introduced them to Hearts and Carol won 2 games and me 1 game. They say they had never played the game before and they really enjoyed it as did we. It was going on 9 before they headed out for home which is just about 3 houses up from ours. I tuned into the last period of the Lightning game and they won 5-2 over the LA Kings here in Tampa.
Today is corporate worship day at S.R.B.C. and we have a new couple coming from our old church who is also not happy with the leadership there and the wokeism that is being slowly let into their thinking. We now have at a dozen or more who have found our church who is preaching the truth and has moved here with us. We still love the folks from the old group but no longer their ideology and I'm afraid this is happening in America as well with many churches. Standards are being stripped away from the Word to include sin which is forbidden by GOD and has now infiltrated many churches such as abortion and homosexuality to just mention a few that is being accepted by many churches as a norm. Well that was about it for the day as it was soon shower time and lights out around 10'ish. Today there are a couple NFL games on the tube so for us who are sports lovers it will be a day of playoff football, LATER
