Saturday

 Today has been slow in some respects.  I must admit that isn't too bad.  The morning started early as usual.  Quiet and slow.  I woke up with CNN hearing about the disaster in Russia.  The world isn't so happy at this point in time. I had a scrambled egg for breakfast topped with some sour cream.  Eggs have no taste and I love sour cream on anything.

                                        A beautiful sign of the emerging world waiting for us.

I made out a grocery list and just before lunch we headed to Aldi's and then to Krogers.  Doug is a great cart pusher.  I got some soup making stuff and at some point that will happen.  I did get a container of tomato bisque out of the freezer. 

TV showed me a whole lot of I U ladies basketball in the afternoon.  It was an awesome game.  They should go far. 

                                Iowa on their way again.  We might see Caitlin here in Indy. 

                        This is a first for me finding this idea in a library book I checked out last year.  

I decided I had room for two more gal. containers planted with zinnias. So now there are eight each with about 9 or so seeds.  I peeked a while ago and there are little green things there that weren't there yesterday.  I planted them on the 20th.  I could call them eager beavers.  The seeds I planted today are some I harvested from flowers last year.  It remains to be seen if they sprout.  The plan is to move the containers to the patio when the weather gets warmer. They will be their own little greenhouse. 


T                                                Two little eager beavers.  There will be more. 

Bob and Rita dropped in for a visit in the afternoon bringing some food from the Emporium.  Yum, Yum.  What a treat.   
                                                            How easy can this get. 
There was more basketball in the evening and then the hope of a good night's sleep.  Tomorrow I'll see a whole lot of folks who prayed me through.  The church family is awesome lead by an awesome God who has cared for Doug and I in so many ways over so many years. 
                                'm a Spartan grandma but we're not doing so good.  Fingers crossed.

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
