Sunday

Wow a day of temperature changes. The morning started out with sunshine and in the high 50's. After our quiet time and a lite breakfast we got ready to head out to Tampa for worship at Element. It was really breezy but with a long sleeve shirt you were comfortable. While at Element the clouds rolled in and the wind and rain were heavy and strong. After the service we hung around as Nancy had and E-Kids volunteer worker meeting. We have so many new children and we need more volunteers with some changes to make in how we register the little ones and make it a safe place as well.

We headed home in the rain and wind, the bay waters were being blown into white caps as we cross the big bridge and the temp's were falling fast. After a quick lunch of the delicious homemade veggie soup we headed out to the nursing home to help with the service we do twice a month. It really gives us a chance to love on those who are infirmed and many are without any families as well as hear a short message and sing. We had several 1-5 graders who came to sing Christmas Carols and we had a good time.

We came home to watch the Bucs beat the Redskins and then about 4:30 we headed over to Nancy's folks to celebrate Garrett's 14 birthday with a dinner of roasted chicken, mashed spuds and green bean casserole. It was good eatin' and by the time we got home I was ready for a rest. I watched a little football before deciding it was time to call it a night. The bronchitis seems a little better with not a lot of coughing so I decided it was time to get back on the pickle ball court.

Overnight the wind increased to near gale force with the leaves, limbs and acorns striking the roof during the night and the temp's were continually falling. Well I headed out to the rec this morning and I took the truck as the winds were to high to ride the bike. We are getting ready for Sam as we are babysitting while Ava has her first dental checkup this morning, LATER
