Well Thursday started out with the heat on here in usually warm Florida as it was in the upper 40's once again. We've had the heat on in the mornings to take the chill off all week long. I suppose I could go with out it, but Nancy needed it. The windows and doors were opened after lunch until the evening shadows started to fall then it was close the house. Such is the daily routines with temps here this time of the years. I even sat outside reading for a couple hours after lunch it was that nice in the sunshine.
I started the day with my usual before 6 rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet moments to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name. All seem to be holding as of this post. I decided since Nancy was going to be away at SRBC helping with the supper coming up on Saturday evening for the missionaries that I would head to the Rec for some pickle ball. I played quite well, winning all of my matches with different partners for the first hour and then I could feel myself getting tired and lost my first match with an intermediate player. I needed the rest and then played a couple more matches before calling it a day. I felt like a rock star as several folks came up wondering how I was doing after hearing I had been suffering from this cold issue. We had basically all advanced players accept for a couple which made for good play through out the morning.
I came home after a stop at the library to return a read, to work outside in the gardens until lunch time. I did some hoeing and then some hand watering and harvested a couple more cucumbers which are delicious. I found one that I had missed that had grown down between the fences and it was too large to get through the holes in the fence, plus when I cut it open the seeds were too large; not sure how I missed it growing so large. Everything looks great and I'll harvest more leafy greens today for the salad bowl. I had a salad for lunch as well.
Today I'll skip pickle ball because its grand parents day at Keswick School so we will attend for Eliza and then bring her home for lunch and then the afternoon. Ava sees the doctor this morning to see if she will be released to play sports again. The basketball season is over but she wants to run track and then play flag football. We will miss the twins first T-Ball game on Saturday but we have too much on our plates to drive over there as its Eliza final game and then we have the supper at church where we will work it, starting around 2 in the afternoon. Then we are meeting the Nymark's for brunch on Sunday after church at a awesome eatery in Clearwater and then tonight we are at their place for cards after supper. Busy, Busy is our weekend and life, oh well, LATER
