Well Friday was another beautiful winter day in Florida with a slight chill to start the day then temps into the 70's with a breeze which made for a great painting day on the house. I did my usual morning routines that begin with some quiet time to honor my lord, Jesus, give thanks for another day and then to lift up several by name for comfort and healing. All seem as well as can be expected with this post.
I headed out around 7:15 for the Rec for an hour and half of pickle ball, mostly with fairly decent players to begin with as it was a day when anyone could show up and play. There were a few good players but mostly intermediates and beginners of which I play with as I'm in it for the exercise on MWF but on T/Th its a different game. The Rec is closed for a week due to the Pow Wow festival on the grounds and they close down the whole complex, oh well. I'll now have the whole day to paint and hopefully get it completed by weeks end.
I worked for about 5 hours on the back area of the house as a lot of the front and sides have rather high peaks so I'll be on a ladder which gives Nancy a fit and she now will help by making sure the ladder is steady which will be a treat, not. Oh well it could be worst. It was such a nice day for working in the shade, painting and I really like the chore as you can see where your efforts are bearing results and thankfully she likes it thus far.
I cut up a whole chicken for our supper and put it on the grill for an hour and it was perfect. When the kids were little we could get whole chickens for 19 cents a pound but now they are like 1.69 a pound and thats on sale. We ate a lot of grilled chicken back in the days and the kids loved the way I grilled them. I still love the backs and the bony parts and the gizzards but none were in this sack of giblets, oh well.
After the clean up I settled into FOX News and then the Lightning game and they were winning going into the third period. I soon hit the shower and was watching some ALONE on the TV in the bedroom and it was lights out for me at 10. I woke Nancy up up who had fallen asleep on the couch and she soon came in for a shower but I was gone. These extra 4-5 hours of painting a day wears me out and it a good feeling, LATER
