Darker in the morning now.

No words needed

Here we are on the second Sunday of March and only 3 weeks away from Easter Sunday.  As I often say time flies and as one grows in maturity it seems to go faster.

I am now 22 days from my Dr. appt when I feel more freedom will come.  My leg continues to feel fine so I think I am getting about ready to do a lot more.  This watching tennis is getting kind of old for sure.  I suspect it will continue for at least another month or so.  The PT that I have twice a week is making my body sore for a day or two after so maybe it is doing what it is supposed to do.

We have had a super rain over the last 24 hours and I think it is supposed to continue into this afternoon.  Nice and slow which means there is very little run off.  We have had a very very dry winter so far and wild fires are getting to be a serious problem.

I am getting a bit more into the book on President Grant.  With 900+ pages I will have to renew it and I still may not finish it.  A bit different than some of the books I read where I can pick it up in the afternoon and finish it the next morning.

For some reason my mind does not come up with a lot this morning.  I have yet to have breakfast but I have finished my FP.  Hard to decide what to eat.  How blessed can we be when deciding between many things to eat and then in some countries there is almost nothing.  It may be hash brown potatoes, an egg and some bacon this morning.  Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and I have no idea why.  I do have a frozen pound of venison I could have or also a frozen pound of wild boar meat.  I wanted to hunt wild boar but again this leg is kind of restrictive.  Maybe next year.

Terry and I need to use some of our restaurant gift cards soon.  We have one for Flemings from 2 years ago and one from Bonefish Grill from last year.  The tennis team has given them to us at our end of the year party.  I am guessing this year they may give me a lump of coal!  BUT we want to be able to tell some of the guys we have used them.  One guy even offered to buy them back and use them himself.  We just do not go out to eat all that much and of course over the last 24 months there have been several things in our life that make going out difficult.  Terry now has this special shoe for her left foot but it is so so awkward to walk in so she tries to not do a lot of walking around the house.    Maybe, just maybe, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and things will change for the better.  BUT I will say that I have no complaints.  What the heck I can take my bp pills, my cholesterol pill and after I get my hearing aids in I am ready for the day which is a lot more than many people can say!!!

I was thinking this morning about why God does not clue us in as to what old age will be.  Maybe it is because He knows we would be a bit scared!  I have 2 guys on my team who are in their early 80s so I have a ways to go.  Perhaps I should ask Glorine or John what the 80s are like but what the heck I am only in the early 70s so I have a ways to go.

Enough for this morning as breakfast is calling.
