Well Thursday started out much the usual with a well before 6 rollout and it turned out to be a very nice day with moderate temps, a breeze and very little humidity. I started the morning with some quiet time to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name, all seem to be holding even Helen who is in the rehab facility. Its been nearly 10 days since she fell and had her hip replaced.
I headed out on my bike around 7:30 to the REC for close to two solid hours of pickle ball and got in a great workout. I made a stop at the library on the way home for a couple new reads. Nancy was off to her women's Bible study group with a luncheon afterwards, so I was on my own for lunch. I hand watered the gardens despite the rain the day before and gave away some lettuces and tomato's to neighbor Carol and Michael. They were pleased and they to loved the ugly tomato's and their taste. I'm not sure what they are called but I had some seeds from some plants at the cabin and while they grown large its almost like they are in segments but their flavor is very good.
Tyler was picking me up after 12 to help with bringing back the new truck for Ava. She wanted a Toyota Tacoma and he found one in Plant City which was pristine for a 14 year old vehicle with almost 160 k miles. The fellow who sold it to us had all the paper work on its history and had kept it in great shape which will be perfect for her. We took it for a test drive and it ran smooth and was tight in the frame as well with no oil or fluid leaks and the a/c blew cold as well. He was asking 13K but sold it to us for 12 1/2 K. It has a topper on it but they took that off and hopes to sell it later. The owner mentioned he may want it back at a later date.
I got back home around 4'ish after huge traffic delays on I-4 as the roads are just so congested with all the folks moving to central Florida. We were having our men's Bible class at 6:30 so I picked up Dan and we headed out and got home around 8:30. I tuned into the Lightning game and they were beating the Canadians by a huge score. I soon hit the shower and was ready for some horizontal lab at 10, LATER
