Well we lost an hour of sleep over night but its a sign winter is coming to an end for some folks and that means we are closer to heading north for the summer. Saturday was another work day until 4 when we headed to Keswick School who was holding the county all star basketball players for the girls and our Ava Mae was a starter along with 3 other Keswick players among a group of really good players. Her group which led at halftime eventually loss but it was a good game and some outstanding play by all the girls on both teams and the crowd supporting the girls, filled the gym.
I started the day with my usual before 5:30 rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet times to honor my lord, Jesus, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name for healing and comfort, all seem to be holding with this post. I had a lite breakfast of banana and some yogurt before heading out to hand water the gardens and do some yard cleanup as I mowed for the first time in weeks. We were heading to purchase some shrubs for the front planter and after 3 different stops we finally bought 12 plants; 6 pink hibiscus and 6 smaller hosta's. That filled the front planter and the one small area next to the drive way. I have a small area that I will fill with some other plants but haven't decided yet on what that will be.
We got back to the house after a Sam's Club stop some where around 1, and then after a lite lunch I headed out to get these plants in the ground which took me close to 3 before finishing in the hot afternoon sun. That was one of the reason's for hibiscus as they like full sun and for the hostas. After setting these plants I got cleaned up and we headed out to the school for the game. We missed the JV girls game which we were unaware of and did make it to the varsity game. After the game Nancy wanted a drink from Starbucks so we picked up one for her and then headed home to eat some leftover while I had a glass of the fruit of the vine.
After the cleanup I settled into the girls basketball game on tv until 8'ish then it was shower time and some ALONE time on the bedroom tv until lights out at 10, LATER
