The Eve

There is a Christmas Eve, New Years Eve and today is  the eve of Friday...an important marker Friday.  So today there is a lot of excitement bubbling up for what will come this time after this eve passes.  Graduation day is tomorrow and I plan to not wear jeans to the event but my Sunday best. .  There will be a commencement address by the doctor and nurse with instructions.  I'll will pay attention although most addresses are pretty boring.  I teased the front desk ladies saying I expected a certificate of completion with a job opening to be included.   I'd love to have a tassel moving liturgy spoken.  So much for the fun...It probably will be ONE and DONE!  A very truly marker that I will remember. 

Many years ago there was another marker on June 4th.  The birth of our first son Eric.  Who would have thought then that June 4th would have another marker added.  

Today I'm staying busy once again outside.  It's a great place to quiet the mind and think about simpler things.  It's perfect weather for transplanting and taking care of another stop at Meijers.  Yes...I did it once again.  It's my flower year and a comfort to the eyes and mind as well.  I think all the even pretend space is filled with something.  

The garden is producing many kinds of leaf lettuce.  And the neighbors will once again will receive a bag.  Doug has eaten a salad almost every night loaded with other good things to make the meal interesting.  It still is not on my menu list. Currently food with one or two exceptions  have a taste I don't want to remember so I don't eat  Uck.  Finished another acceptable strawberry milkshake though.  

So that's the day so far.  I Owe the Lord a Morning Song...of gratitude and thanks.  I might add a 24 hour song, not just morning.  


Thirty one sessions completed...One more left to do.

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...

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 s...

Saturday.

 Today was the every other Saturday for Soup Kitchen work at church.  But before that I was up at 6 with breakfast and a little sewing time.  By 8 I was on my way to church to be at the door when Tosha would be arriving.  Sarah Ellen is in Italy for the week.  One person short makes a whole lot of difference when the soup kitchen crew is at it's usually small size.  Jack arrived earlier than usual so that was a big help and the new Cindy crew of two more folks made work time even easier.  Sometimes I feel like it's a guess who is coming to work now added to the guess who is coming to lunch.  The crowd wasn't as large as usual.  We just never know.  I say it's a crap shot not to be figured out!                                                I hope to have a lot of these orange cosmos this summer....
