I'm alive.

 I had my doubts yesterday.  Such a @#$%^$% Day.  I was getting a bit scared with not being able to eat at all but today...little by little I'm functioning again.  Thanks be to God for a better body. I'll take it.  Something I'm really good at but still surprised is sleeping during the day.  Perhaps the body is still healing.  Sounds like a great excuse and I'll use it.  That doesn't mean I did much but it was a great day.  I visited with neighbor Judy and heard that our yard bunny has found her patio. And the beautiful yellow butterfly is also visiting her.  We had a huge teaser of a rainstorm.  No storm and very little rain.  Maybe more tomorrow.  The Dalia Ladies got another drink this morning from the watering can along with some potted flowers.  The zinnias are looking great even though they haven't seen much moisture for three weeks.  The purple flower is called butterfly bush which the butterflies love to find.  They have nothing to do with the propagation of butterflies but have great nectar for them. So today was a day when I found myself again.  Yesterday I had my doubts.

    I've missed seeing you in the yard and was starting to be more and more concerned. Praying for everything to settle down, even as you awaken in the morning. God is good.

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

Wed. I'm back Thanks be to God!

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

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.   The morning work flew along.  I talked with Heidi about my ideas for Easter decorations.  The Easter banners are back at church and a few more decisions have been made.  Easte
