Friday Morning Oct 27th

 Well Thursday was a catchup day of honey do's and small chores around the house with most of it being outside in the yards and garden areas. It was a hot one with temps in the upper 80's and very little humidity with a nice gentle breeze. I started the day with a 6'ish rollout to my usual morning routines that start with some quiet time to honor my LORD and give thanks for another day while lifting several up by name for comfort and healing. All seem to be holding with this post.

I headed outside after a lite breakfast of oatmeal and raisins to check on some plants in the front yard that needed watering. I had left all of our frozen water bottles around them over night to melt and give them a drink. It was garbage pickup day so I had two large cans of debris from the back yard oak tree that Amy and Tyler had collected over the summer plus we had some garbage that I wanted to get to the curb. I headed back in to work on the spare bathroom sink which had become unusable due to the drain plug frozen. I took apart the assembly and got it working again which had been holding water all summer. Next I worked on the outside spigot for the well which needed new seats as it was dripping slightly causing the well pump to come on when I had the power to it. 

I kept busy with some small chores and then decided to water the back yard, letting the well run while I dug up a path for seeds in the garden that I wanted to see if they would germinate. Tyler had weed whacked the tall grasses in the gardens which made it easy to dig up and shake out the dirt. I'll mow these grasses up for compost later which will help hold the moisture. Nancy was off to two stores for stocking the panty. We didn't need any meat as I brought two coolers home from the cabin of every meat but lamb which the grand kiddos requested in a shepherds pie supper on Saturday after the ball games, which is the reason we came home early to see Gabe play.

I did make a trip to the library for a couple of reads and then listened to an hour or so of Jack Hibbs and Amir Tsarfati give real updates on the war with Israel that you will not hear about on any of the biased MSM. The Bible prophecy is coming true not only in the Middle East but here in America with the evil that is enveloping our culture. So sad to see brainwashed college kids taking the side of evil with the Palestine terrorist who are sub human in their desire to destroy the Jewish folks. They are worst than the Nazi's in their killings and torture.

Well Nancy fixed a nice salmon filet along with some orzo and cooked spinach. I need to cut way back as I tipped the scales at 200 pounds. I'm hoping to get back to pickle ball on Saturday morning and I'm hoping by working in the gardens and yard to sweat a few pounds off as well. The water at the cabin is so sweet and it makes everything taste so great, plus we had so many guest this summer that we prepared for as well. So much to be thankful for, LATER
