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.

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
