Hope and Enough.

 Living with hope makes life livable.  Gardeners are great hope holders.  Hope that it rains at the right time.  Hope that the weeds don't over take.  Hope that the newest plant makes it through the summer.  .  Hope that the deer once again will not eat the beans...Hope that there will be a harvest of great tomatoes.  Life's  experiences can be filled with hope.  The hope that there would be enough flour happened.  There was enough.  I thought of the Children of the Promise Land filled with hope that the oil in their lamp would last 8 days..  Hope brings more than enough.  

Yesterday the flower beds received a few touches.  Still more to do but this year spring is here early. Time is on our side.   Raking and pulling and finding surprises filled some of the day.  Baking was finished and there is enough food in the freezer for all.  Stella went with me once again on an evening walk.  .  

Yesterday a phone call from Dr. Schneiders' office indicated that Dr. Moore would  be calling sometime today.  So...the iphone will be sticking with me at all costs no matter where I am..  The hope is that there is a plan for the next months of treatment.  And if that is delayed, the hope is that I can see my way though if  more discovery time is needed.  Hope...a wonderful gift to be used over and over again. 

This morning it is time to do more preparation for Palm Sunday.   With my friend Heidi, we will be delivering palms to church for the Sunday afternoon outside event planned for church folks and neighbors  that include a parade, a donkey, singing, palm waving and more.   Hosanna to the Son of David.

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
