MLK Day.

 A little of this and a  little of that for the day.  The usual morning starts with coffee and 2 scrambled eggs with a touch of sour cream and horseradish!  Yum, yum.  Then on to the birds.  Their morning starts with a thaw of their water and them yum, yum Bluebird mealworms with sunflower seeds tossed on the ground for Junco's. .  Busy morning and I missed the bluebird visit but they didn't miss the mealworm breakfast.  Twice I filled the cup and then "magically" it disappeared.  The squirrels were sunflower eaters.

Then there was a quick visit to JoAnn's for a scrap of brown flannel to do a pant repair for my church friend Joe.  He keeps me busy now and then and I'm just happy to help along.  This was a very simple repair.  I hope it works for him.  

An interesting phone call this morning with a colonoscopy P A  nurse made me set a date for an exam.  Let me add there are no red flags.   My new Primary Doctors says my age exempts me from that experience. But...given the surprises of this past year, and wondering if there are any loose breast cancer cells roaming as Dr. Schneider now thinks landed on my head, my decision is to go through the rather unpleasant but I  feel necessary experience.  Once again, no red flags but the last exam was 5 years ago.  It's time. Doug's exam is this coming Thurs.  The nurse P A recommends exams for "OLD" people if they continue to be active and able to do the prep.  This paragraph might be called TOO much information for some.  I  agree.  

I need to make my yearly eye exam.  Being diabetic warrants that.  Woo.  Maybe for March.  Feb. seems to be filling up. This body is demanding attention.  

No big plans for the rest of the day.  It's one of those KISS days.  Keep it simple sweetie.

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
