Monday

The morning started out with the usual's; cockadoodle wake up a little before 6, my quiet time, bowl of oatmeal, ride to the rec on my bike, 2 1/2 hours of pickle ball and a stop off at the library for a couple reads. Nancy was getting ready to take her mom(GG) to see her dad(Pap) who is still in the rehab facility. At least he was in a wheelchair and out of bed for the first time in over a week that was a good sign. Nancy stayed and visited until it was time for Amy and the kiddos to come for lunch. We had a good lunch of rollup's with ham and cheese and raw veggies and dip.

After the kids left for their afternoon naps we ran some errands then Nancy headed to the rec for her workout on the treadmill. I napped and read until it was time to get ready to head to Amy and Tyler's house for supper. Amy makes this great casserole of rotisserie chicken, green beans with stuffing on top, Yikes is that ever tasty and easy to serve as one dish. Nancy made a fresh salad.

We had another cloud burst around 4 PM with severe lightning, thunder and rain. There was a river in front of our house with water a foot deep or more. Many streets were flooded so we took the back way through the hood to Amy's. After supper we headed home to watch the Ray's win over the Yanks and the Orioles helped us by beating the Red Sox's so we are now tied for the wild card spot; we made history as no team has ever come back from a 9 game deficient in September and be tied with just 2 games to play.

We got a call around 10:30 last night from Betsy(Nancy's sister) that GG's phone had been busy for over 2 hours and the operator said there was no talking on the line so we got dressed and drove over to find that GG was alright but the storm had knocked out her phone and she was unaware of it. Well that's about all here except we are sure missing some of that cool mountain air as it was another scorcher here to day. At 10:30 last night it was still in the middle 80's with high humidity, LATER
