Today...Emphasis on the day.

 Nights are a bit long but in some respects they were long before surgery.  So...surgery is not the entire reason to be awake I must remember.  So at three o'clock I emptied. the  dishwasher, folded a small load of wash and played games on my I phone.  Happy to have the energy to do all that.  And again saw the darkness leave the window to the day light.  I am blessed for many reasons. Waking is one of them.    I have a mind that works for most of the time.  Well, if I work on it, all the time.  

Today new dressings for my leg were delivered to the front door.  Many thanks.  Doug made a trip out to the drugstore for the usual pills and now we are honkered down for the snow storm.   Our needs are being met.  That's another blessing knowing that others are not so fortunate.  

Texting all five of my grandsons is such fun.  They were giving me a bit of a tease  and I e mailed a picture of my skin flap on my head.  Uck...Enough said.  I got them good.  I really saw it for the first time today.  Doug took a picture for record and I am eternally glad that I don't need to look at it when it's being dressed.  Today I washed my hair.  Took half the time to do it since half is gone for now.  Not sure I can count that a blessing.  That's still to be determined.  

So...the electric throw continues to be my friend.  Texting is a wonderful devise.  O T lady was here and I think she can move on to others more in need.  Tomorrow should be a quiet day and then Wed. at 1 am back to the Med. Center for staples out, drain out and I pray more answers to questions that didn't have answers last Thursday.  

Still have the Messiah streaming through my head as I heard it yesterday.  God is near.

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
