Well this month is half gone and we are looking at just over 4 weeks until we leave for the cabin. I'm getting excited about heading north into higher elevation and getting the yards and gardens worked up for planting and sowing. The heat here hasn't been too bad but its dry and the garden is starting to come to its end as two tomato plants have died and dried up but I did harvest most of the fruit the flies haven't destroyed. I'll give away another sack of collards, lettuces, tomato's and an egg plant this morning at church.
I started the day on Saturday with my usual well before 6 rollout to my routines that start with some quiet time to honor my lord JESUS, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name for comfort and healing. All seem to be holding and even Helen sounds much stronger almost daily. Just maybe there is a chance she can return to her cabin but probably only with a live in help or some one who comes daily to assist and help her.
We had to be the other side of Tampa to Brandon at 9 AM so we headed out at 8 and made it there in about 50 minutes to watch the twins t-ball game. I actually helped in the field as one coach was absent to remind the kids to run the bases and where to throw the ball. It was fun and Bobby's team has some good players who are learning from his coaching skills. Both boys hit the ball while he was pitching and they made some glove stops as well. It was a fun time for an hour then we headed home around 111:30 for a bite of lunch before heading to north Clearwater for Gabe's game. They lost the first game and then the game we attended after some costly errors in the field by a single run. I'm not sure on their coach's skills and teaching, who use to help Bobby coach the teams in the past but because Bobby is gone so much he couldn't coach this team, oh well. It got rather warm with temps in the low 90's but a nice breeze kept in bearable.
We made a stop at a flooring place that Betsy pointed out to us, but despite the shower flooring tile she picked out it was too slick for us to change out so we are going with the one we had already purchased. We still have several purchases to make before we leave for our friend who is redoing both bathrooms while we are in the mountains. We got back around 4:30 and I settled into the Ray's game which turned out to be a blow out by the Giants and then the Lightning lost as well in D.C. It wasn't a good day for Tampa sports.
I did watch some of the war in Israel which the Iranians are now bombing with missiles and drones. So far they have failed as Israel has in place great defenses. Now I hope Israel takes out these terrorists and destroys their nuclear capabilities of making a weapon. They are such radical muslim terrorists who are evil. Today is church day at SRBC and I believe we have 4 more Sundays to welcome folks at the front door before we leave on a Sunday which is the 19th of May, LATER
