Monday

Well it was another Hot day but at least the rain stayed away, our street is still soaked with water as the yards still drain water from all the wet weather the past several weeks; such a shame as Texas could use some of this wet stuff. After the usual wake up by the dueling roosters, a cup of hot green tea and the usual bowl of oatmeal with some fruit I pedalled out to the rec for some 2 plus hours of pickle ball. We had a some great play today and only a couple of the less experienced players showed so there were wet shirts all around.

Amy and the grand babies came for lunch and we had a good time playing with them its sure going to be tough to leave them next week(we hope) for several weeks but there is much to be done in the mountains before we winterize the cabin. We are planning to leave on Wednesday the 21st. We have been getting updates about how nice the days are with 50's in the AM and highs in the 70's, wow will it ever be nice to spend the whole day outside. I spent the afternoon as Nancy took her folks to the doctor reading and finished a fun book written by Ree Drummond (The Pioneer Woman). She is a hoot and we both love reading her blog. The book is fantastic and quite a love story, not the mushy, chick flick type but a real love for each other, kids, the land, animals etc. Good wholesome real life adventure as well. Its a must read if you love life.

We did Mexican for supper with refried beans, ground beef(I prefer deer but we are waiting for that season to start in the mountains) tomato's, onions, chopped lettuce, sour cream, grated cheese and taco seasoning in the beef slapped on to a flat tortilla along with some jalapeno peppers(optional)then rolled and eaten, oh my!!! Anyhow its good for you as well.

The Rays won again last night and and are just 2 1/2 games back from a wild card slot...GO RAYS behind the Red Sox's. Well I want to remind all of you who use vitamins and any health products that all Nutrilite products this month only is purchase one and the another of the exact same product is free. That offer is only with our team and not the company so let me know via e-mail if you purchase from my website so I can make sure you get this amazing offer also shipping is free to you if you spend 120 bucks. Not bad when you consider we were purchasing from another company and their products were twice the price and they charged us 40 bucks in shipping alone, what a rip off. Anyhow this offer lasts the whole month of September. Now that I'm a business person I feel remiss if I don't at least inform all about these offers. LATER
