Sunday

  Sunday, another good day starting with a slow morning.  That's a good thing.  Then it was off to church celebrating the Transfiguration of Jesus and Confirmation Sunday and the last Sunday before Lent that signals the packing away of alleluias not to be read or sung until Easter.  I think it was one of the best ever worship hour making each one of those mentioned blend into a meaningful worship service.  The music was what I would say part of the glue that made it all work.  Jill preached a great Transfiguration sermon.  Darren had the beginning and ending of the service with packing away the alleluia words the children colored while the choir sand the Ukrainian Alleluia. Alleluia banners were carried to the narthex as the service ended. It all brought tears to my eyes along with perhaps a transfiguration moment for me when all was said and done.   After church I found take out clams for delivery to R who labels them and met Kathleen to mak...

Saturday

  Busy, busy day with never a dull boring moment.  Life is good.  I was up early finding two valentine cards to greet me on the kitchen table.  I live with a very thoughtful man. There was time to do what needed doing at an unhurried pace.  I was off to Bread and Bowl at 8, stopping at R and B's with two containers of chicken veg. soup.  I left them on the porch where R could find them easily, on the welcome mat.  Then I was on my way to church hitting every green light except one.  Woo.  a record on the time and staying within the speed limit.  Doug would be impressed.  I worked for a while by myself getting food in the oven and everything else in place needed to fill the take home clams.  Heidi came and we went to the sanctuary to talk a bit about tomorrow's service.  Back to the kitchen with Sarah Ellen arriving.  We filled 57 take home containers today adding many other things to the take home bags.  At 11 we...

Friday

 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...

Thursday

 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...

Wednesday

  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...

Tuesday

 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...

Monday

 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...
