Thursday

 All the morning stuff with successful wordle and crossword.  Woo.  Worked on all the PT stuff with an ice pack at the end.  Just got to do it!  


Then at 9:30, I did it again at the Ortho Indy PT office.  It is a  great workout with some things accomplished in a different way.  Keeping it fresh.  Nothing till next Tuesday.

                    A great Daliah from Daliah Hill in Midland Michigan.  Beautiful gardens. 


I went on to Meijers and got a few things for us and some for R and B.  It's fun to buy some things that Doug would never eat.  Back home and soup making.  Then a stop at R and B's again with a few lunch things and a lot of talk.  

Come November we'll once again be on our way to another great family reunion in Georgia.  Yeah!

Back on the road and out for lunch with my three teaching buddies from at least 40 years ago when we were much younger teaching first grade together at Forest Dale El. Sch.  Friends through thick and thin. They always want to hear how I'm doing.  We had some great food discussions Jan had cancer, Kay with some really involved knee surgery and Carol's husband a cancer victim.  We did some talking about ways we enriched our diet during all of those crazy days.  I drank supplements, Jan said she followed the Stake and Shake diet. A milkshake or two every day!  Great diet I would say.  Carol's husband did supplement drinks. There were so many funny stories that we related to each other that sort of made us the loud table. We really have wonderful memories and still keep on making new ones.  

The rest of the day was pretty tame.  I found a few things to feed to B B. Supper was soup and then cards as usual and then evening TV.  Tonight is our Spartan freshman Jacob's first concert of the year.  That picture is next. 

        He is at the end of the clarinet row.  They change seats for every piece. There is no first chair.

The evening also included another round of PT with Ice.

    That's interesting - no first chair! They keep rotating - that seems like a great way to develop good clarinet players.

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
