Saturday Morning May 10th...17 days to departure

 Well Friday was another now typical hot humid day in central Florida, yikes am I ever ready for some cooler temps and dry air. Its like walking out into a sauna in the afternoon. I started the day with my usual 5'ish rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet moments to honor my lord, Jesus, give thanks for another day and to lift several up for comfort and healing. All seem to be holding with this post. I headed out to the Rec on my bike for a good workout on the pickle ball courts winning most all of my matches with different partners. The play was good and constant and I left with a wet head and shirt.

I piddled around outside in the back yards and gardens hand watering and getting the gardens ready for rotor tilling next week. I did harvest a couple tomato's and cucumbers but the heat as just about done them in for this season. I hand watered the front planter and then sprayed some weed killer around the perimeter of the place as I get it ready for the grands to take over mowing when we leave in now 17 days. The weather in the mountains have been extremely nice with lots of rain and I'm sure the grass is hip high there. Our dear friends there will mow before we get there at least once which will help in getting around the yards for the first couple of days until I can get the riding mower working and the gardens tilled. I love the physical work and just being outside and there is always something to do there. No more flat land either for the next 5 months, oh well.

Nancy was off to the doctor's once again as she is having some issues and a new med was prescribed. Hopefully that will help with her ailments. I spent the hottest part of the day on the internet and in a book as it was just too hot to be outside for long, plus when you came in you are soaked with sweat. We ate supper around 5'ish then got ready to walk up to Dan and Carol's for some hand, knee and foot. Well the guys beat the gals 2 games in a row and it was going on 10 when we headed home. I hopped in the shower and then a little Hulu TV before lights out, LATER
