Wednesday

 This morning started a little different with an 8 o'clock visit to a PA that works with my heart doctor.  I was pleased. She was a great listener.  I'm on a heart monitor for two weeks to see if there are any peaks or valleys in heart rate.  I'll be checking blood pressures as well looking for highs and lows. We may discover something and we may never discover anything. My doctor friends who were with me when this all happened Sunday are very happy about the heart monitor decision.  I am as well. 

                                My hope is the memory will repeat itself in the garden this summer. 

Back home I tried to schedule a follow up after hospitalization with a neurologist.  That was a trial of errors taking a lot of time with nothing scheduled. The neurologist referred to has nothing available for a year. I'm wondering if she's on a baby break.  Nothing available is the word from the lady who schedules appointments. The attempt continues

                                                       Getting anxious to see in the 2024 garden.

I'm chilling out on this one.  That is easy to do since my get up and go seems to be in short supply.  I U will be contacting me when there is an answer about follow up.  Promises are made that cannot be kept! 

Kimmy has been busy.  Look at all those two handled mugs.  One firing of bisque equals three firing of glazed pots.  Salt pigs are in the back of the picture.  Mugs are on another table. 

Today my goal is to do a little sewing.  I have 8 cover-ups cut out that could be added to the 7 already finished. It's the last of the fabric.  Over 200 nursing kits have been mailed out to Goodwill areas in Indiana, each with a cover-up.  And by the end of the day the last 16 were ready for a trip to nurse Ginny saving one for myself as a reminder of how to make them again when asked.    

The big surjprise is how pretty the sheets are now a day.  I'm always thinking plain cotton.  I'll never buy new sheets when I can get such pretty ones at Goodwill.  

Today the lawn mowing folks arrived.  Yeah.  It's spring or so it seems.  I decided it was way to cold to walk the yard.  Not much will grow on such a cold day. 

I had fun texting with my Nancy friend in Cleveland.  Texting also happened with Adam and Jacob.  I love my five grandsons.  They are the best.  One is spending spring break in California.  

The soup supper came out again.  So delicious.  Rita shares her best.   And every day it tastes better.  How does that happen? The day is almost finished and that suits me to a T.

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
