Tuesday Morning Apr 8th

 Well Monday started out much the usual with my morning 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 seem to be holding with this post. There was no pickle ball today for me as my friend and fellow church member was coming to install two doors plus some front porch construction with my help. He came at 9 and worked until 3'ish as he lives about an hour and half north of here and the traffic is usually brutal both coming and going.

Well we hung the outside garage door first and I never would have been able to do this job alone as he knew what he was doing with this pre hung door and then we moved onto the front storm door which again was a big job because of the weight and size of the door plus some additional construction. He is amazing in how he knows how and what to do to make it look great. We took down the iron railing along the front of the porch and will now construct a wood box across the the front and I'll stain like the pillar on the side of the porch which is also iron, but it will be boxed in. We will do that today then I'll find some paint stain to give it the affect Nancy wants for the front. Both new doors added to the look and safety of the house.

Yesterday I got in the mail my new quote for home insurance which tripled in cost from last year to close to 11k for one year, unbelievable. This is robbery at best and I'll start checking around for a better deal or have to pay this amount. I've never in all the years I've been here made a claim and now a new company has taken over the policy, oh well. Seems they want to either drive folks out of the market in Florida or just reclaim all of the damage done in the last storms from new folks clients.

We headed out a little after 6 for Ava's flag football game and they were losing by a touch down the whole game but with just seconds to go they tied it up and it went into over time. There was a play off much like the pro's where each team from the 10 yard line had 4 chances to score and make the extra point. Well each team score in the 4 chances but the other team failed to make the extra point and Keswick won by one point. What a game and the opposing team had lots of fan support as well.

We got back around 8:30 so I hit the shower and watched until half time the Gators vs Houston team and the Gators were down 3 at half. I was whupped after being outside in the sun all day so I hit the bed at 10 and will check the scores later this morning after posting this ramble. I'll do some pickle ball this morning before Brian comes to finish up with my job around 9'ish, LATER
