Saturday.

 So what happened today.   Here goes! 

The night wasn't to bad.  I did a lot of waking up but then I did a lot of going back to sleep.  I'll take it.  And once again the morning came around 5:30.  I did a slow wake up with the TV, breakfast and more T was nursing a sore hip so I just took it easy.  That happens more than not so I wasn't surprised.  I expected it to go away and it did..

Ms. Daisy needed to wake up the driver to get her on the way to church and soup kitchen.  We were a wee bit later than usual but still in great shape.  So I did all the early stuff that I usually do getting a whole lot of things started but there was plenty that needed starting as well when the whole crew arrived.  Sarah Ellen and I fill the "clam" with the hot meal and I like to that that ready for her arrival so we can power into the job asap.  

There were 8 of us and we finished all the preparation around 10:40. The doors open at 11:00.  And we had a lot of guests. The line was long and we did not run out of food.  All were fed.  Sometimes I think of the 5000 story in the Bible.  We think the food will not last through the hour but it always seems to.  

Heidi and I checked out the sanctuary for tomorrow's service and there were things to fix and we fixed what was needed.  There is a new banner at the pulpit and the altar flowers are stunning once again given by the Canes.  

Dr. James gave me a better understanding about what my cancer medicine is doing for me.  It was so helpful. He takes such good care of me. A friend I've needed many times. His wife is Heidi who is also a Nurse Practitioner.  I am so fortunate. 

The driver once again arrived, and we were on our way home.  True to form a busy morning means a slow afternoon.  So it was napping and more TV with Michigan football but mostly napping.  

I spent some time cutting about a third of the fabric we found at Goodwill yesterday.  More really pretty burps on the way.

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

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

 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
