Tuesday Morning May 14th

 Well Monday was about as hot and humid as I like with temps into the 90's once again and no rain but tons of sunshine. I started the morning with my usual routines that begin 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 are holding with this post.

I headed out around 8 with friend Terry to a large church in Pasadena area to play pickle ball with some awesome players most of whom were younger than me, but I held my own, winnings with several different players and losing a couple sets. We left after 2 hours of play and he dropped me off at the house in his Tesla which is an awesome ride, although I would not own one because of the range limit and the power stations.

I piddled around in the gardens taking out the last of the tomato plants, the egg plant and digging up the carrots. Now all I have to do is rotor till the rest after spreading the last two sacks of oak leaves I've been saving for the gardens. Nancy was off to another doctor's appointment which was basically a follow up but she is still dealing with a sore knee which she is concerned about. Icing it helps and she did find at our small group meeting last evening walking up to the Botbyl's.

Brian came by around 5'ish and we went over our plans for the remodel and we gave him keys to the house plus some start up cash. He has all summer to do the job on both bath rooms which should make Nancy happy, I hope. She has been stressed about so much lately and I think its showing on her with all the maladies she been expressing, plus she hasn't done any cardio in months, oh well.

The group meeting was delicious with everyone bringing a dish plus the pulled barbecue pork Carol made and afterwards we played Balderdash which was a hoot. Its been years since we last played and Carol and Nancy were the best fabricators. I game back and hit the showers around 8:30 and then watched the Ray's beat the Red Sox's in Boston 5-3. It was cold there with everyone wearing coats. I'm looking forward to some cooler temps next week as well, LATER
