Well Wednesday started out on the chilly side and ended that way but during the day it was a perfect winter day with tons of sunshine with temps reaching the low 70's. I started the day much the usual with some quiet time after my well before 6 rollout to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name for comfort and healing. All seem to be holding as of this post.
I headed out around 7:45 for the REC on my bike despite it being quite chilly with temps in the low 50's for two hours of pickle ball play with decent players. Usually on MWF there are so many less than advanced but today 4 of us advanced players were able to keep one court the whole morning so we didn't have to go outside and play. I was whupped went we called it a day at 10'ish and pedaled home to piddle around in the garden.
I transplanted some carrot seedlings which I had thrown seeds into one area and they were growing too closely together. I'm hoping these will make as you usually don't transplant them but I did last year and some of them made nice carrots. If these couple dozen do well then I'll transplant several more later on. The lettuce seedlings are doing fine and I did harvest a nice mess of collards and other leafy greens for Betsy when she and Gus came by for a visit. She has a ton of ills but refuses to retire as she will be pitted with Gus full time, oh well.
I didn't do much after a lunch of a fresh garden salad except watch the war in Israel and then Betsy and Gus came around 3'ish and stayed for what seemed forever, oh well. We unloaded the last of the coconut cake which I over indulged on desserts after a healthy lunch. Those desserts taste so good and Nancy had a ton leftover from the Tuesday night small group supper and I tasted both of them. So glad to get rid of them as it just blows my chance to lose a little of the belly fat.
We headed out around 5 for Keswick's district girls playoff game which Ava is still on the bench until she is let go by the doctor. She may be able to plat if they go to the state finals but until then she is just a morale booster. Her team beat a Clearwater team by 45 points and it was a blow out to say the least. We stayed and watched a little of the other game and IRCS was beating the home team, Canterbury. I must say that gym was so dark and dingy I'm surprised they would hold playoff games there. It was going on 9 when we got home so I hit the shower and watched some ALONE until 10 on the TV, Later
