Maybe tomorrow.

 Thinking about rain.  It sure looked promising at noon but it's a no chance now.  So the dahlias got watered this morning and that was it.  It's been one of those hot August days again.  Carmel 95  Midland, Mi with rain at 88 and wind,  Conyers, Ga 90 and Richardson, Tx.  97  Time is 6:51 pm.  I guess it's hot everywhere.  These temperatures are posted where family members live.  

It would seem the rest of the week is the same. ugh!!  

I love the early morning when the house is quiet and I'm on the patio with a coffee listening to the birds and watching all the animals that are coming alive for the day.  Peter continues to show himself.  And then I add Martin, a former North organist now in Oregan has attached music to Face Book and I can hear him play as only Martin can.  It makes coffee wonderful and at times brings tears to my eyes remembering all the wonderful pieces that he played for us Sunday mornings during worship.  We often said Martin Martinized music.  There is just a style he perfected that marks his playing. So the patio is a wonderful place to start the day with Martin.  

So today was pretty simple.  Watching television, preparing small meals and snacks for Doug to enjoy.  Today's flower is the white hosta flower that smells so good and is so unique in form.  


The monarch is very active on these hot days enjoying the sun and loving zinnias. I plant lots of orange flowers for color.  And now...it is time for a cold shower for this writer.

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

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
