Monday Morning

Well Sunday was a day we always look forward too. A day of worship, seeing our associates and friends at Element Church and of course seeing our son and his family. We started the day with a sleep in until 7 despite the roosters crowing around 5 AM. We did our morning routine; quiet time, lite breakfast and our social updates.

We headed out at 9 AM for the 45 minute drive to Tampa alone. We usually carpool with Dan and Carol but we were scheduled to bring Annsley and Gabe back with us after church but we found out that had changed once we got to Tampa. We had a different format for worship to start the New Year with mostly music. It was very inspiring. We headed back to Seminole to find the sun was out as it was really foggy on our drive earlier and the temps had warmed up. We opened the windows for some fresh air and after a frozen pizza and salad I settled in to watch the NFLWild Card Games. I really didn't care who won as I just love football. I played 5 years in high school and was a starter 4 of those years.

Bob and Jill dropped the kiddos off around 2:30 as they had an Amway meeting and dinner at the Salt Rock Grille on the beach and then picked them back up around 6. Amy brought Ava and Sam over to play with their cousins and they had a fine time together. I grilled chicken legs and thighs and along with tater tots and salad it was good eatin'; of course they were so wound up it was hard for them to sit still long enough to eat. With the threat of no chocolate chip cookies for dessert they manage to clean their plates. I don't know where they get all this energy with such little food.

Well they all cleared out around 6:30 so after the clean up I headed in to watch the last of the late game. It wasn't long until it was shower time. I still have this cold and while I don't feel really bad it's just enough to be annoying; so I'm taking an antihistamine and some cough syrup which leaves a yucky taste in your mouth, LATER
