Responsibilities and relaxation time.

 Today started with a bang.  Rise and Shine...no time to waste. The apple pie went in the oven at 5:30 am.  We needed that pie for an afternoon event.  Then on to the soup kitchen at 8 am with soup and noodles to add to other things to make casseroles for the noon meal for those who came by for food.  The morning was busy with food preparation done by the Butler Basketball team.  They were busy and once again the 11:00 deadline was met.  Another good group of workers.  This afternoon we had a wonderful visit with Bill and Penny Shared, Kimmy Russell's parents. They were at an event in Kokoma and dropped by for a visit And that's where the apple pie entered the picture.  






Four trays of green beans, carrots, cream of chicken soup
noodles and cheese.  That's the recipe.  It was well-received.  












Another great group of Butler Basketball guys Cutting pies into five pieces, placing them on plates, and then bagging them.  They are gloved and masked for good food  practices.  


We enjoyed a wonderful visit on the patio with lots of talk and apple pie.  
An interesting day with responsibilities and ending with a bit of relaxation.

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...

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 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....
