Thursday

 It was a very long day.  Some things went right and some things didn't go as planned.  I would say maybe it was a typical day.  Maybe!  All the early morning things were successful.  Breakfast, Crossword/Wordle, Eric's trip to the bus, and then home again accompanied by another wonderful morning sky.  


I got everything in the car for the morning work time at church.  That's a sure cure to forgetting things stashed right by the door.  All was ready for Palm Sunday preparation.  Then a phone call that demanded a trip to the hospital with PJs  for Noah needed to be squeezed in first.    I called fellow church workers saying I would be late but giving them all the information they would need to complete the work without me present.  

This was a new plant last year.  It needed staking last year and today I moved a fence post by it for support.  It's barely out of the ground but looking good.  It has a druppy side but I love it.  


\Andrew had the bag of P J's  ready for me but not Kat's tea so just hang on.  Patience...All would happen in due time.  At the hospital I got a text saying the sanctuary had scaffolding and we couldn't do any work.  Changing light bulbs was the word.  So the big job planned for the morning didn't happen at all.  Saturday morning a whole lot has to happen and no doubt we will be successful.  At least that's the plan.  We've run out of any more days by than.  And we can not make it an April Fools joke!

I took this picture near Copper Harbor Michigan in a friends garden where the breeze is cool with moisture and the deer do not eat Holly Hocks.  The garden was filled with many colors all just pristine in every way.


The afternoon was sunny and warm and perfect for a spring day.  I walked the garden doing a little work but the last two days have been busy with garden work and I was ready to let it rest.  The garden looks like it's also ready to let itself rest. 

The evening was a quiet one with not much string.  Tomorrow I'll pick up the palm frons for the parade prepare them and wrap then in wet towels to keep them fresh for Sunday morning.  It would appear that job will be one of those rainy day happenings.  I'm ready for a boring day with no glitches.  Noah remains in the hospital and will be there until Saturday.  There have been complications with something called a catheter.  Surgery is a ok.

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
