A little of this and that for Saturday.

 This is a ketchup day.  Or is it catch-up day.  

                                More pictures from the walk at Central Park, a Carmel city park. 

The day started with the scissors and flowers putting together two arrangements of zinnias, black-eyed Susans, grass, and a few other things.  I forgot to take pictures.  Then it was off for delivery to my two good worker friends.  They earned way more than flowers but that was my limit.  

                                                    A water lily getting ready to open.

Back home and the WALK again with the realization that it was time to get busy on what needed to be finished in front of the house.  Well, some might call it finished.  I would say making it better because a gardener is never finished.  I redefined the front of the bed and got rid of a whole lot of charlie and violets and more.  Stuff is sitting in piles waiting to be gathered and added to other stuff in the big blue. 

                                                                                Waiting

This afternoon I did a Preen thing which should hold things together for a while.  

                                            Looks like fun with a big splash through the water. 

The Colts played a preseason game that was televised and that got my attention even though they lost by one point to the Detroit Lions.  The Colts scored in the last 40 seconds and went for 2 which would have given them a win by one point.  That didn't work.  Well, it's preseason.  It was a good practice game.  Even Doctors practice in their Practice.  

The afternoon was filled with napping while watching the game.  Woo, that felt really good.  


            The larger yellow flower is a cup plant flower with black-eyed Susans in the background. 

The morning was punctuated with rain during my flower delivery hour.  The afternoon saw periods of a lot of thunder with no rain.  Strange to say the least.  We had the noise but no rain came. 


Nothing much planned for the end of the day and I'm sure the day will end as it does over and over.  I'm letting it do it's things.  It's good at bringing on the dark.

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
