Another wonderful day.

 These fall temperatures are just wonderful.  I guess it took HOT August to make one aware of what's happening in these first Sept days.  First...the mug...It's a product of our friend Dennis, our Copper Harbor friend.  The cupboard is full of his achievements.  All loved reminding us of our summer vacations.  

Now isn't that just beautiful  Well not the green plastic I see are there.  I cannot say I need more so the pottery Jared and Kimmy are making are few and far between but that's O K.  I have a couple mugs and a set of bowls.  That's good enough for me although I see many more I like on their web site. 
 
During the night on one of my wake-ups, I decided that I would tackle a dirty job today that I have been putting off for more than a few months.  That's cleaning the steps going into the lower level from the outside of the house.  It just a collection sticks, dirt, leaves, and stuff and I DID IT.  So happy to know I don't need to think of it anymore for a very long time like next year.  That led to a little sprucing-up in the garden.

Noah wasn't feeling well today so the school needed to be canceled for him and he came to visit me.  Temp was gone but needed to be 24 hr. free with a negative covid test to return to school.  His test proved to be negative and I enjoyed seeing him again.  It was chocolate chip day and after eating some he went home with a plate for the family.  
That's proof that I'm feel baking energized.   I'm still happy to let someone else eat baked items.  It's that mouth full of sand feeling which I know will be gone at some point.  I'm enjoying lots of fruit which is not all that bad.  I'll leave the cookie eating to the rest of the family.  
Once more a day for patio sitting and butterfly watching with music coming from the IPhone.  
What a treat to watch the Monarchs dance with the Four Seasons.

    Do they like to dance to "Winter"?

    I will be receiving a new espresso mug soon! I loved seeing it on the etsy site and so I screwed up my courage and put it in my sharping cart. I sent a comment that I loved the rose color used on the mug. The response told me that the "boys" call it crimson forest. So, rose is gone - crimson forest is in. I am looking forward to receiving it.

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
