Thursday

 What happened today? I don't have much to show for it.  I did a lot of sitting around.  Some walking the garden.  Texting Eli and then it was Holy Thursday evening church service of communion remembering the Last Supper.  So what did I see in my walk?  

The Blue Bird mom and dad are busy stuffing the box with Georgia pine needles.  I'm really happy about that.  So far the box is about 2 inches full and will get at least another 2 inches before Mom and Pop are satisfied.  So far the danglers are keeping the sparrows out.  Their nest building skills stink so neat says Blue Birds.  They have been busy.  

The Lenten Rose Hellebores continue to look fresh ad beautiful.  It's so nice to have flowers that are happy when the environment is not so forgiving. And the size of the beds tells me that they have been around for some time planted at least 10 years ago.  

I pulled a few weeds.  Worked on not tipping over which is pretty easy now.  Tomorrow morning the in house PT lady is coming and that's not to soon.  I wanted to take Stella around the block but I sort of talked myself out of that trip.  The wimp in me said tooooo cold. Maybe tomorrow.
I had to take a picture of these two little friends.  There are just a few around so I'm giving them a little space.  
My Nancy friend 's mug arrived today.  Kimmy loves this shape and so do I.  The dark brown glaze was dug in the UP where our potter friend Dennis told Jared to dig.  It's a favorite glaze.  Great choice Nancy!

Neighbor Kathy was yard working so I got to talk to her for a while.  It proves that we are thinking spring for sure.  I moved some of the zinnia jugs out for the day.  They will come back in before night.  
Here's another plant bursting out.  I need to go to Rosie's and discover once again the name of this pretty thing.  Sprigs of asparagus are appearing.  The lettuce is growing.  I need to plant parsley.  And everything else is looking great for this time of year.  It's still MARCH but not for long.

That's about it for the day.  Not much to show for it but I can live with it.  Tomorrow there is another chance to make a difference.  God is good.

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

Wed. I'm back Thanks be to God!

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
