Well we are down to 39 days before leaving for the mountains and I'm ready, although the heat and humidity hasn't been bad but the skitters are back as we sat out at the stadium watching Ava's flag football game. They lost their second game of the season by a point after winning the night before by 45 points, oh well. What's the old saying "on any given day any team can win".
I started the day with my now usual before 5:30 rollout, it seems that's when I have to use the potty for the first time during the night which is a blessing so I just stay up and do my quiet time to honor my lord JESUS then lift up several by name for comfort and healing before getting ready to ride out to the Rec at 7:30 for pickle ball. We had a good crowd of players all are some what advanced. I got in several matches or sets with different partners winning most all of them and left whupped around 10. I made a stop at the library for a couple of new reads and found one female author I had read a few years back who writes very well. Jeanette Walls has a new read titled HANG THE MOON which is a page turner that is set round the turn of the 20th century in rural Virginia. Great read thus far and I can not put it down.
I worked in the gardens pulling some weeds that grow despite the dryness which I'm back to watering twice a day. I need to harvest green beans and beets today as well as more lettuces and tomato's. All of the above are maturing daily as I make this post. I gave away more 'maters and leafy greens as well as egg plants yesterday and will take a sack of 'maters to give away to my pickle ball buddies this morning. Nancy was off to her chiropractor and then to the hair dresser so I had the morning to myself until early afternoon. I had a fresh garden salad for lunch and then some leftovers for an early supper as we headed out to the game at Keswick. It was a hard fought game with some questionable calls by the ref's who were teachers at the school we were playing. A conflict of interest there, I think so but I think we are still in the playoffs despite this loss, oh well.
It was going on 9 before we got home so it was shower time and then some ROKU before lights out a little before 10, LATER
