Wednesday Do Day

 Lots to remember.  It was a Wed. sort of cleaning day.  Blew off the patio, blew out the garage,  Scrubbed the kitchen floor, vacuumed the carpet.  Discovered I was tired this time for a good reason.  That's always a good mental exercise to remember.  Having a good reason is what I want.  Remembered the haircut.  Did a library drop-off and visited with friend Kathy returning her "bulbs' back to their home.  

The church's All Saints celebration includes lighting a prayer candle.  They are lit for only a short period of time near the end of the service.  So...an attempt was made to snip off the burned part of the candle and remelt the ends which I hope will enable us to use them again when needed.  Woo...that was a sitting and watching TV job which saw about 400 candles being refurbished for another year.  I can check that job off for sure.  

So it was a busy day of lots getting a whole lot accomplished.  

Today's events include my quarterly visit to see Dr. Baker, my diabetic doctor.  It should be a good visit with numbers being where they should be discovered through testing.  Eating continues to have it's ups and downs.  Fewer downs than ups are evident.  The evening appetite is mostly gone, the noon is taking over.

Bo has arrived at the Michigan farm.  Eli's big delivery was a huge surprise yesterday while he was at school. .  Bo will be well-loved by the whole family.  He is a huge horse in my estimation but not one of the really big honkers.  Just huge.

    W'll have to see what the protocols are for visits - but our Br. Emilio is the master of candles and may have some tricks to show you for next year. . . .

    PS - he tells me frequently that he is praying for you.

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
