Monday

 Today started out pretty slow.  Just the way I like it.  Nothing to hurry one along.  Just mosie at a slow speed.  

I made another phone call this time to Dr. Baker's office hoping for her PA to make a return call.  The morning was filled with sleeping and just taking it easy.  No response from the PA and it's evening.  I'll give them until sometime tomorrow. Now I have a neurologist.  So another phone call tomorrow for an appointment. There are a lot of doctors in my life. 

                                                                         Spring. 


Early afternoon the home health care guy arrived with lots and lots of questions  This company really impresses me with their health evaluations.  I'm eligible because driving is gone for 6 months. I'll have 2 sessions of PT for 3 weeks and than another evaluation.  My goal is to be able to garden again.  Taking it slow with care will help. Balance is an issue.  


Rita and Bob stopped by with more beef soup.  It is so good and not heavy with food.  Just lots of good juice.  

                        The bloodroot is all open now.  The leaves are as interesting as the flowers. 

Doug did some burn pile burning. In fact it got somewhat out of control.  So having the hose close was a good thing.  I was surprised he messed with it since I would say it was a bit windy.  

                         More decoys.  I think the King and Queen should call their subjects home.


There was more good sleeping in the afternoon.  I hope this isn't a habit that gets in the way.  I worked on more decoys for the bluebird house.  They are meant to keep the sparrows out.  We'll see if it works.   Last year the sparrows killed the B Bird babies.  I'd rather take down the houses than have that happen.  

                                Lettuce peaking out of the ground...BARELY But lettuce is there!

I spotted the beginning of lettuce in the garden. Just the beginning but a beginning.  The zinnias continue to germinate in their little green houses.  I pray there will be no wilting off in a few weeks.   


                                    The promise of a few zinnias. Just a promise

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
