IN Carmel

 Different stuff happened today.  It was all good stuff which makes it even better stuff.   The day broke before I woke up.  Woo.  That happens but not very often.  I'll take it even though a smidgen of the morning was over and gone.   There wasn't much time before the 9:00 appointment with Michael, my great PT friend.  There was a recheck on vestibular stuff and nothing showed up.  Added to the take home assignment were exercises that strengthen what needs to be strengthened to prevent more vestibular stuff.  MORE HOMEWORK!  but happy to whatever keeps the ugly giant away.  There was no after shopping.  Doug scheduled today as Tax Day.  I've never attended but today I was on the way with Doug to Noblesville to our tax man.  I thought we might need to meet each other.  So, we did.  It never hurts to get a few important things in my head.  Tax info has been submitted to the government. Fin...

 Well, it was the same old same old.  I woke up, brushed my teeth and washed my face among other things such as taking a lot of pills to get the day going.  And the engine revived up when all was ready to go.   This was a Y day but before that there was a little knitting, bird feeding and more of the usual.  Doug had to fetch his own paper in this morning.  I don't think it hurt him.   I started at the Y with the Living Strong group. Then leaving early, I stopped at the office to get some questions answered which made me late for my 11:15 class once again.  Angie is so gracious and welcomed me in as usual getting me started on the rowing machine.  I met a new pardoner.  We proceeded around the circle using many things to build strength with repetitions including rest.  That went on till 12.  I was on to the treadmill and at 12:30 started the martial arts class once again. I have pictures to post when the blog will let...

  On to Wednesday.  Where has the time gone?  Maybe gone with the wind might be one answer.  I was talking with a friend a few days ago that spend time with family in Nebraska and South Dekota.  There is nothing to stop the wind there and it blows a lot and with furry.  So what is in the news column today?  The alarm went off.  I didn't set it but I did learn to turn it off so it stops ringing every Wednesday no matter what.  I think it was another Jared move not wanting me to forget him.  How could I?  His birthday is Saturday and there has been a lot of fun over the years with that kiddo.   There was breakfast and just quiet for a while.  Then off to the knitting store for more yarn.  The pickings were a bit slim in my basket.  I bought some paint pens for a project coming soon with my Live Strong friends.  Back home again and soon I was on the way to church meeting Heidi and James for a good work day...

 Busy day after a good night of sleep.  Now that's a good combination. I sat for awhile with coffee in hand and then started another scarf with no hurry in mind.  The plan was to participate in two classes at the Y today with a repeat of the martial arts class on Thursday including another Living Strong get together.  The calendar says that will work.   There was a surprise with one of my neighbors being in the strengthening class.  We were pardoners.  It promises to be a lot of fun.  Then there was time for a half mile treadmill walk and then on to what I call sort of a Japanese martial arts class.  That one is harder with specific moves in specific ways.  Good training for the brain which mine has been without for way to long.  Both sessions have teachers that I would say know for sure what they are doing and how to teach those skills.  Woo, Hoo.  Those two classes went from  11:15 to almost 2 with a little bre...

 I'm getting a "sign into my google account" sign when wanting to post pictures.  Bad, Bad!  So now pictures tonight.  We'll see how this goes.  Another start to a five-day week.  I know...there really are seven days in the week.  But the five still are sort of alike.  Well, sort of.  It was an early wake up and I just went with it.  Breakfast, Pills, Toothbrushing.  Most of us do a little of each at some point in our lives.   I decided to make a run at finishing the scarf I was working on and that happened.  The basket of scarves went with me to the Y and Living Strong.  Arriving early, I was able to get my mile walk in before we met.  It wasn't going to happen after because of our monthly church gathering for lunch at McAlister's.  When the other ladies arrived bit by bit, everyone picked out a scarf they liked. My goal for the morning was to get over some humps or holes I thought were holding us...

               Add at least 12 more and you get the idea of the entertainment that is seen at the window. There is not much to write about this Sunday that is different than any other Sunday.  So, we'll see how this goes as it comes out of my head on to my fingers.  One can be surprised.   It was so wonderful to wake up in a warm bed thinking there wasn't a reason to explode out of that bed.  So, I just stayed put for a while.  But the clock said it was time to move at one point.  Then I did.  There was breakfast, paper fetching and bird feeding.  The blue birds were a delight again.  I yelled come and get it which they followed that instruction with a grade of A+.  I started a new, you know what.  Moved the burp bag to the car for Ginny and noticed it was time to leave for church.   We honored three ladies today who came to church almost as babies, now in the late 80's and...
