B Birds

 Those feather friends seem to be figuring out the new approaches.  And the Starlings must have heard my complaining.  I saw one a few days ago and there was some difficulty getting to the feeder so he/she flew away.  I'm not saying they are out of the scene yet.  So far so good.  

This morning was our crew's time to work at Bread and Bowl again.  It's been a few Sat. ago that we met.  All were busy and our 47 meals were well received.  Many but not all took two meals.  It's always a busy morning with preparation and then from 11 to 12, our guests see us in the west entrance to the church.  We still stress mask-wearing and no one comes into the church unless masked.  So they are keeping us safe and we are doing the same for our guests.  

On the way home I made a stop at the fabric store.  Kat has a huge project for me and I'm starting with bits and pieces of fabric.  So this sort of looks like Easter.  Agree?  

Placemats for the new table.  These will be approximately 14-inch squares.  .  There will be more for other celetrations of the year.  I'm starting slow and easy.  St. Patrick's celebration may come first.  I'm starting to think of possibilities.  I just need to see what's in my boxes of fabric.  I would guess not the right kind.  Isn't that Murphy's Law?  

I'm feeling like I did a few things already today so maybe it's time for the chair and a nap!  Sounds like a plan.

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

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

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.   The morning work flew along.  I talked with Heidi about my ideas for Easter decorations.  The Easter banners are back at church and a few more decisions have been made.  Easte
