Saturday.

 Busy day.  That's what I like.  

Up and at it early.  Well, 7 something.  Not so early.  I forgot to get the paper from the box so no crossword finished early.  Happened in the afternoon with a brain that got stuck more than once.  

The morning was a fun one getting the church space ready for Bob Schilling's 90th birthday party.  Woo, woo. I can't post any pictures because Bob reads the blog.  Good to remember that.  So hang in there Bob. Surprises are coming. Bob's daughter Jennifer is here from Washington St. and his son Derek is here from Switzerland.  His other two sons live here in Indiana. Rita's two daughters live here in Indy. It's been a busy few days for the Schilling family already.

                                Three colors of Asters blooming.  What a beautiful fall flower!

I looked in on the sanctuary while at church and since tomorrow is World Wide Communion Sunday I changed the pulpit hanging and dressed the altar before I left.  I also brought home many many bud vases that will be used next Sunday.  Tomorrow's theme is God as the Shepherd.  Next Sunday's theme is God as the gardener.  So there will be flowers, grasses, and baskets of fruits and vegetables in the altar area.  The children of the church will be dressing the chancel area with more flowers during the opening hymn.  I've got to be ready with filled vases on Saturday when we put this all together.  

                           I'll be watching these flowers for a few days. Next Sunday should be a fun Sunday.

Back home again at 12:30 for lunch and a walk around the garden snipping again.  

The afternoon was full of P T and crossword and filling two vases for next Sunday.  Knowing how long the flowers will last tells me what day of the week I should fill vases with flowers.  The asters are a bit of a question.  A call to Amy sharing next Sunday's plans happened.  She'll help with the children.

I'm not quite sure what's going on with this little friend.  He's not very active and lets me come quite close.  Another chipmunk took a ride this afternoon joining his buddy in the woods

Pill bottles were filled again so that the body could be at its best.  And there was icing, not on cupcakes but my knee, the water kind, after PT happened.  Just one of those usual Saturdays preparing for next week.  

It's going to be a slow and easy evening.

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
