I'm not good at....

 I'm not good at a whole lot of things.  Math...bummer...cooking...lazy...fiction reading...loose interest.  Those things I can live with but the one that bothers me the most is...the marriage between what is good for my body at this point and what my mind races along wanting to do.  Who can tell me if I'm doing the best for both body and mind.  Mind is easier...I've had that for a whole number of years.  This  body...not so easy.  It's a new born.   So readers, give this new "problem" some thought.  Maybe the answer will come in a still small voice.  I'll be waiting with ears open.  

Another beautiful day marked Friday.  Grocery shopping was a success which did put me on the comfy chair when all was put away.  Later the voice said.  Time for a walk around the block. I answered...windy and cold.  No walk.  Later. I heard again, walk.  . Did I listen or ignore.  Of course I listened and really enjoyed the beautiful fresh air  walk with Stella Stroller once again.  She's a great friend.  Recorded the walk and sent the evidence to the grandsons!  I got a rousing clap from Adam!  Smoked white fish for supper with NO side dish of soup.  Just fish, crackers and cucumber slices as suggested by Leslie/Dennis...the fish givers.  How sweet it is.  One more meal to go.  

Today, driver Doug and I are heading to church to drop off purple and white fabric for the music folks to use during church service.  Purple for Lent!  I'll stop by to say hello to the Sat. Bread and Bowl soup kitchen folks who provide 2 meals a month to those folks stopping by the church for a take home meal.  I miss my fellow workers and the guests who come.  No more out of the house trips that I know of are planned until Tues.  Thinking body!!!  

Having new adventures with my I Phone.  We're getting to know each other.   Yesterday...something happened...perhaps a swipe or something and all of my family showed up on the screen.  Jared at work...Kimmy and family at home...Andrew talking to me.  Woo...what a reunion.  There is one thing I'm not good at on this machine...I've got to figure out how to hang up.  They just wouldn't go away which in a way was awesome.  Surprises abound and do I need to get better at  I phoning...Not spending a lot of time thinking about that.  

Temperature in the 50's today.  Guess what I'll be doing.   It has an easy answer.  A date with Stella.

This time I hope I'm back for a very long time.  The computer with pictures is finally a go and all the excitement of Sunday is over.   I don't know if I've recovered yet.  There are a few more days before the next Sunday.   For those few who don't know it was another hospital stay of a couple of days.  And it all started in the pew at church with a pass out  seizure type of thing. I think something to do with high sugar perhaps.  The whole service came to a halt for a while.  How embarrassing with a carry out by the good old EMTS.   Lots of tests I guess.  I don't remember a thing until Sunday evening with a trip into a scan machine.  I got released Tuesday and today I visited my primary care doctor for answers and I'm pretty well satisfied.  Two days in bed have really made me wobbly so I'm pretty careful about moving around.  It should get better soon.  I won't be driving for a while because of the seizure.  That's a huge bummer.  The seizure medi

 A day that's been a little slow.  I guess that's OK now and then.   The morning included a yucky bird feeder clean out.  I got tired of looking at it and it was almost empty so there was my chance.  The blue bird was seen often and the pair of red bellied wood peckers enjoyed the suet.  I saw on facebook a guard that is easy to put together to keep sparrows out of the blue bird house.  It's worth a try made with wire and fishing filaments and fishing weights.  I need a wire cutter first.                                                                    For a while both Mr. and Mrs. were visiting.  Then it was to the sewing machine.  The day produced three bags.  I need to get the collection on their way to Michigan.  I made a couple for the Carmel grandsons.  The pace was slowed with a finger cut with the rotary cutter.  What a bleeder I produced.  I will say this is the first slash I gave myself in more than ? years of sewing.  I think it's time for a fresh dressing

Kimmy did it again.  She guided me to the spot where now there is a change made in the blog settings  allowing comments.  If you had a google account you could do that already.  At least  that's what I think I'm reading.  So comment away when you want to.  Will be fun.                             I'm looking forward to a whole bunch of different zinnias this summer.   Finger report.  It's doing fine with a major clean up today. One reason for no butterfly but a small club is to pad the site.  Typing is improving.  The day brought more sewing with four more bags completed and one waiting for velcro which should arrive tomorrow via Amazon.  Another package of D rings should be included to finish up a few cover ups.  It's been a busy sewing season with some new challenges that keep the sewing room interesting.  I must dig through my fabric for more options.   Lots of meal worms are disappearing again.  Most of the time it's because the pair of Blue Birds are having
