Sunday
Dear Elsie
Today was the day that had a number of things on the menu. David taught. We walked and when we got home, David had finished his first lesson and was already downstairs watching the start of the cricket. I then cooked egg & bacon rolls for breakfast. We watched South Africa labour and then smash their way through their innings against Australia. It was the 5th match of a ODI competition that saw Australia thrash SA in the first two. SA came back to do the same against the visitors in the next two. Today was the decider. The cricket would last most of the day, starting at 10am and finishing at 5pm. Brunch were the egg and bacon rolls and lupper was at 3.30pm. My view while cooking…TV was on – just can’t be seen.
Lupper on the go…
Not only was their cricket, but there was also rugby, so it was a bumper afternoon. The cricket outcome was very satisfying.
We won both convincingly with the Springboks thrashing Romania 76-0.
A very satisfying day of sport. Who knew we’d win the ODI series!
In between all of this, I was doing laundry and took some towels down to the guest in the cottage and arranged his next 3 visits. He’s coming for close to 4 weeks up to 23rd December, part of February and then again a month from March to April. This is someone who usefully plans ahead.
Then I went for a walk. The mountains are alive with spring flowers. A beautiful picture.
Thank you Lord for this day. We have today.
Psalm 149:4
For the Lord takes delight in His people; He crowns the humble with victory.
It’s not about now – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
Gran xx 🙂
