Thursday

 Jinks!  Awake from 2 to 4 something AM.  I'm getting used to it.  Then I slept till 6:45. Not too bad I would say.  The day was dark and dreary, cool and rainy., slow and steady.  It was a good change in routine. I checked things out in the garden and brought the paper in for Doug.  He reads EVERYTHING.  I just give it a quick scan some days.  I chose to watch a little news with not much more on the agenda.  The library books got a good going through and that will happen again in the days to come. I love pictures.  Since we haven't used our Webber grill that might become a flower/veg. planter!  Do you think?

I read the on line portal message from the nurse about Monjaro and her solution to continue on 2.5 strength until 5.0 becomes available is the new plan.  No one knows how long that will be.  A new prescription was sent to Walgreens.  A phone call said they did not have any 2.5 or 5.0.  I chose to make a visit finding out what other drugstore had 2.5.  We went to Nora and now I have a month supply of 2.5 in MY refrigerator with 3 more refills to come.  THANKS be to God.  I think it prudent that a diabetic have medicine protection if available.  Diet just doesn't cover it all.  Woo...that a biggy with a temporary solution that will work for now. 

I saw the neighbors out working on a new flower bed and offered two plants if they wanted them.  They did and the plant move was made. Their trip to Lowes brought more to plant tonight and tomorrow.

I was in the soup mood this morning and the garden asparagus became soup by adding celery and onions with chicken bouillon and potato flakes.  Yum, Yum.  I really started out thinking Split Pea Soup with celery onions and carrots and potato flakes.  I have both and have a bit of extra to take to Rita and Bob tomorrow.  Tarragon and parsley will top it off.  I'll add some sour cream.  Doug will NOT!

So even though the day was dark and dreary, rainy and glum, good things happened and for that I am grateful.  

Tonight I'm having difficulty with icloud pictures.  Big Bummer.  I'll try again in the morning.

    Maybe it's just as well not to have pictures today - pictures of your soups make me hungry.

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
