Thursday

 Today felt like an old Thursday.  For many years I worked at our church soup kitchen on Thursdays.  At some point I moved to Saturday because of a staffing need.  Today I was a Thursday person, doing much the same as I would on Saturday.  There are a lot of jobs that need to be completed to meet the 11:00 deadline when our guests are invited to take a lunch or two home with them..  Once again we met the deadline.  Such a great feeling.  During little breaks in the morning's work I also completed a few other things that had to do with the Sunday worship service.  It was a busy morning.  

On the way home I used my Meijer coupons at their store and picked up a friend and delivered her to her place of work.  Then home for lunch and a nap.  Later this afternoon I made a quick trop to JoAnn's for a couple of things.  

Tonight is choir practice.  Will I go or will I stay home.  Yet to be determined.  Tuesday's  news hit me loke a ton of bricks, or feeling run over by a steam roller or having the rug pulled out from under.  I'm dealing with that and know that being with friends would be good but I'm not real interested in talking yet.  Writing is easier.  

So choir is yet to be determined.   It will all become clear at some point.

    Yesterday's entry has been posted on our prayer board. And today you were remembered in our intercessory prayers at Mass. It is the feast of St. Thérèse of Lisieux who was a quiet, hidden Carmelite and who is now a feisty and busy saint - "All is grace." (If we are open to receiving it.)

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....
