Tuesday

 It's been a slow day...a very slow day.  

I did put together 20 burps but not all at one sitting.  I would say there were many starts and stops with burps today.  But there are now 100 more in the bag for Ginny and 10 more priming the pump anticipating the next 100. A few are waiting for the sewing machine. The total finished so far...drum roll...1210.

                            I love those BIG Goodwill bags.  Another 100 for Ginny's babies. 

I spent some time this morning sleeping away a few hours.  Why?  I have no idea although I've heard and I'm believing that cancer makes one tired just because cancer is hanging around.   I think that's pretty close to being right.  

                                                            Sage, Sage and Sage.

The frustration continues with the financial aid lady Rosie at the Plainfield office concerning the drug Kisqali.  I e-mailed the info 3 times and Rosie said she didn't get it.  Then last Thurs we took the form to the doctors office downtown for faxing and Rosie said today she did not receive it.  The only thing left to do is to take it to Plainfield.  It should not be this way.  I'm waiting for more phone calls.  I have another week of pills, then one week off of medication and then I'll need a new prescription.  I'm just frustrated with the process but it is what it is. 

                            I pulled some dried flowers from this bush.  I'm a seed saver. 

                                The dark arrow shape at the end of the peddles is the seeds.  

So today I slept, sewed, and took a shorter walk.  I learned my lesson yesterday.  The important part is that I'm still remembering it.  Patty called and supper is coming for tomorrow.  There was still chicken soup from Kathy.  There is no food desert at this house.  


        Asters.  Other years I've had three colors but it seems only two this year.  Some years are like that.

I think there is another day till the Fever play.  There is no football and there probably be some sleeping before bedtime. My coffee is waiting.  The brain is a little foggy.  

                    The rain has made some flowers really perk up.  Others have said..."it's OVER".

    You have me well-trained. When I read about the asters and read "Some years are like that" I immediately added "even in Australia."

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
