Well Wednesday was really a very beautiful day for a change with tons of sunshine, blue skies and NO rain for the first time in over a week. Temps were down into the low 70's for a high and no humidity at all. I do believe we are in a high pressure system which is helping with keeping these hurricanes off shore. I can't imagine the damage if that Cat 5 hurricane came ashore followed by another major hurricane. Hopefully Bermuda is spared as I once visited there by in the 60's while serving with a 4 star general in the USAF. It is quite the nice place or was back then, but a small island in the middle of the Atlantic off the coast of the eastern seaboard.
I started the day with my usual 6'ish 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 and healing, all seem to be holding with this post. Our friend and neighbor headed back to the hospital in Charlotte yesterday evening as he isn't doing well after after a kidney removed a couple weeks ago. Keep Grant and Shirley in your prayers. We are expecting Dan and Carol on Friday and she isn't doing well either as she can no longer chew food due to her jaw bones not functioning properly and she has now lost 40 some pounds in the last couple months as she can not eat normally. That's a tough way to lose weight, so we are trying to figure out what food we can prepare for her so she can eat while here for 10 days, oh well.
I piddled around in the yards and gardens after stretching on the back porch and checking them before a breakfast of some home grown red taters that Nancy fried up. I added a couple eggs and jalapeno pepper cut up in mine, delicious to say the least that held me until supper time with a couple snacks around 1'ish. I tuned into the MLB playoff's at 1 and spent most of the afternoon watching those games except for a 4'ish hike we took down the driveway and around the road before coming back and finishing the game in progress. All the games were close and some good play as well.
Nancy pan fried a couple salmon filets and we had enough pasta left over from the night before, along with a can of peas, so we ate high on the hog once again. After the clean up it was now almost dark as the sun was down behind the trees surrounding the cabin, so I tuned into the Yank's vs Red Sox game and they even up the games to one each. Tonight the winner goes on to play in the division championship this weekend. After the game I hit the shower and read until 10'ish.
Today Thursday we head to Sparta for Nancy hair coloring and then some shopping for company tomorrow. I'll head to the landfill and then the library while she is getting hair colored and then its a stop at Walgreens for her scripts and Food Lion before we get back on the mountain, LATER
