Tuesday

Pictures are a little sparce today.  There was way to much going on to think pictures. Earlier tonight they didn't want to load so this is an 11 pm job.  Election...not so hot right now.


        Here's an old chicken duck Michigan picture.  The congregation is waiting for their breakfast.                                         I think I may have posted this before but it's worth a second exposure.

The day started off pretty slow with the TV.  No matter what...this is a nail biter day.  So, my nails, be they connected to my fingers or the ones that are used to build things, I'm ready for some good news.  

After enough TV I did some burp sewing.  That's a great way to get one's mind off nail biting. I sewed away for a while.  

At 12, we were on the way to see Dr.Schmoll, the neurologist.  We had a great visit, and I have my wheels back.  There have been no seizures for 7 months since the lone one in church that got me in trouble.  I'm staying on anti-seizure medicine and off of tall ladders.  That's a small price to pay for car privileges.  I'll see the doctor again in six months.  Jared said I fired dad but Doug told me if I wanted a driver, he was available. By the way...no more doctors this week unless there is a surprise.  There are more visits coming next week.

                         More Georgia cookies coming tomorrow.  I bought a second bag of C Chips.

On the way home we did a Kroger stop getting some necessaries that Aldi's doesn't have.  So, the food pieces are coming together for Georgia.  When turkeys are cheap at Meijers I get one of those.  It's a toss up.  Should I bake it here or in Georgia.  Here the mess gets cleaned up quickly and the Georgia meal is easier to do.  Baking in Georgia...we get the smell.  Oh, dear...what will it be.  I made sure we had the Indiana Cranberry Sauce 2 lb. container.

             Here's the sauce! I've never found this at Publics.  They carry the canned stuff!  UCK!

If I remember correctly Rick and Dee both enjoyed the sauce.  I'm happy to share this with whom ever.  My dad added oranges, apples and walnuts.  Yum, Yum.  The perfect thing to add to turkey meat which can be a bit bland in taste. 

Groceries were stashed and there was a short return to the TV.  Election news is driving me today.  That was until I fell asleep.  

I worked on a few more burps counting and then miss counting and then doing it all over again a few more times.  The latest count is something close to around 12 more needed and there will be another 100 to bag up.  

I ran the sweeper picking up leaves that come in on our shoes.  Then swept off the patio which is a little feudal right now.  It's been a blustery dark day but blustery will blow more leaves off the trees.  Winny the Poo agrees.  Mr. Poo is one of my favorite friends.  

For supper we had election day chili.  Well, Doug did.  It really is the Georgia chili and a bit spicy fitting for the day.  I had calm, bland chicken soup again.  My kind of soup.

             Doug tried the Georgia Chili.  It sure smelled great.  It's made with turkey instead of beef.                                            Kimmy is not a beef eater.  Doug gave it a thumbs up.

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
