Well its disgustingly hot and humid and we are in need of some rain here in central Florida. I mean when you walk outside you sweat its that humid. It won't be long until we are in the cool mountains if all goes to plan in about 9 days. I'm ready for a change and yet I will definitely miss our family, friends and neighbors here and I'm excited for renewing old friendships there as well. We are blessed to have such two diverse living conditions.
I started the day with my now well before 5:30 rollout which the new internal clock awakens me daily, but I'm usually lights out at 10 so I get a good 7 hours or so sleep depending n how loud Nancy's snoring gets. I'm back to wearing ear plugs at night as she has been loud lately. I headed out to the Rec on my bike after my quiet times to honor my lord JESUS, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name. We speak with our "mountain mom" Helen daily and she is holding for her age at 96 and is now in an adult facility in Elkin, N.C. which is just down off the mountain. So when we shop it will now be in Elkin to visit her her because there is a super Wal-Mart and Lowes there as well as Galax, Va. Everyone else is holding to my knowledge.
I had a good work out with mainly advanced players and left whupped around 10'ish. Nancy was at her chiro visit, so I harvested the last of the lettuces which wasn't much and another couple tomato's that were turning in color. I still have several green ones on the side garden which I may bring with me after taking out the plants next week. I have some beans on the plants that are drying and I will use for seeds for next year planting as well.
After lunch I made a trip to the truck dealership to have them check out the unusual clicking noise in the gear shift selector arm which you hear occasionally and they assured me it was nothing to be concerned about. We had to manually move the selector to finally hear the noise and now I know how to correct it so as not to hear it, oh well that is something to be corrected next year when we get home as its under warranty.
Well we went back to Lowes for more items and they corrected my bill and came me a 100 bucks back on my card and a discount of 5 % on everything in the store and a 10% military discount on certain purchases. Every little bit helps in this day and time with inflation out the roof. We now have the garage full of items for the new remodeling of both bath rooms that our church friend Brian with do over the summer while we are gone. I loaded up some mulch from there as well and then after supper filled up the front planter. I was soaked with sweat after that small job and it was going on 8 when I did it.
Well the Ray's were off so I watched some NHL playoffs as Nancy was visiting neighbor Carol after supper. She almost daily has some new ailment and I'm wondering if I will be pushing her wheelchair instead of the other way around, oh well, LATER
