Well Happy Big Day to my middle sister Pat who is close to 70 today. I'll get a card in the mail this week. Well Saturday was another nice day with a little more heat but lots of wind which kept it comfortable to be outside at the ball park in Brandon for the twins base ball game. It was another tough loss for their team as their hitting is in a slump. Huck got a couple hits but Ryder is striking out along with most of the team. Anyhow they was plenty of support for them as Amy, Tyler and Eliza came over to watch the game before heading to AKEA which is in Tampa.
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 comfort, healing and for safety for Ava and Sam who are in France on a school trip. We got some videos of them singing at some concerts as they have a full schedule while in these different venues.
After leaving the game we came back the crosstown toll road due to a fatality on I-4 which FHP was still investigating with the road completely void of any vehicles, which was a rare site and the traffic back up and delays was major causing some slow downs on our route as well. The fatal person was still evident at the scene but thankfully covered with a sheet as it appears they were throw out of the vehicle. That brought back memories of my job for about 25 of the 30 years I was a trooper and a traffic homicide investigator. The toughest part was always notifying the next of kin and of course photographing the deceased.
We made a stop at Lowes in Pinellas Park for paint for the front door and to check on the new doors we will be replacing in the next couple of weeks when my helper is able to be here to supervise the job. He is tied up for a couple weeks but eventually will get here as we want to replace the front storm door and the side outside garage door and that I hope will be the end of all the remodeling and updates on this house.
Amy and Tyler had us over for a supper of grilled flank steak, rice and green beans all of which was delicious. We stayed and played a game that Eliza likes to play and old me won both with some great guesses. It was going on 9 before we got home so I hit the shower and was soon watching some ALONE on the bedroom TV with lights out at 10, LATER
