Well this month is half gone as well and 3 months from now we will be planning on our trip to the cabin for the summer. I'm excited about that as the the temps here will soon be almost unbearable except for the morning and late evenings when the sea breeze keeps it comfortable to be outside. The humidity will soon arrive with vengeance as well and the gardens will dry up despite daily waterings, oh well.
I started the day much the usual with a before 6 roll out to my routines that start with some quiet time to honor my Lord, to give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name. All seem to be holding as I ramble. I wasn't playing pickle ball until 11'ish so I piddle around outside in gardens, harvesting and cleaning a nice mess of leafy greens for the salad bowl and then hand watering all of the gardens. So far the cool nights and warm days are causing the tomato's to set lots of green ones but none ripening thus far. It usually happens this way with just a couple at first then tons of them ripening all at once, oh well. The leafy greens are doing awesome as always and the salad bowl stays filled plus I'm giving away tons as well.
Our pickle ball play was cut short by an hour due to the gym being used for a basketball game unknown to us, but we did play hard for an hour which really was enough since we play every day; two morning at 7:45 until 10'ish and 3 morning around 11'ish until 1. My game has improved and so had my stamina and I'm loving it, plus it helps with keeping the tummy some what flat.
I took off to Sam's Club after lunch and filled up at 3.08 a gallon which is about 20 cents a gallon cheaper than on the street. The price changes almost everyday but there seems to be plenty of it thus far. I did some other shopping and where you were limited to one pack of TP now the place is stacked with it and no limit. I read the rest of the afternoon until supper time and then until shower time. I tuned into a documentary on the Korean War in 1950 that had tons of real footage of what the military was facing with both the Chinese and the extreme cold in that barren land. We nearly lost a whole division of Marines with MacAthur's failed planning, LATER
