Thursday

 Another slow day.  I'm loving them.  

Once again I'm sucked into the book.  Trial and error.  Success and failure.  It's all the ups and downs of learning with cheers and laments.  So, the morning was full of reading.  That is until I went to Goodwill to retrieve something that I didn't think I needed yesterday.  I needed it today!  Someone else needed it more than I is what I discovered.  So, I bought a sweatshirt.  I donated two a couple of weeks ago.  They didn't fit anymore.  

                                            
                                            Pretty...isn't it!  I'm talking about the sweatshirt!                                                                                       Kimmy, this lady has her eyes open. She is not talking!                                                                                  This old lady bought the same sweatshirt that I did.  

Back hope and another sack of summer and winter shirts are ready to move on to someone else.  

                            Proof.  The next trip south will see these move from the seat to the store. 


More reading and then Doug and I did an hour or so at the Y.  I walked a mile this time listening once again to Christmas music.  Drummer Boy, Frosty, Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas, White Christmas, Here comes Santa Claus and more.  Those were the good years of music with so many written that still are heard every year.  What a gift still come to us created more than 60 years ago. 


                            My gardening build a bear is staying pretty warm on the front stoop.                                                                          He's using a blanket I brought back from Kenya.  

  Supper was a meatloaf from the freezer along with those delicious potatoes once again.  Better than soup any day.  


The word is that snow will be here tomorrow.  I'm ready, bring it on.  Nothing bigger than 2 inches they say. A little excitement is what I need.  

                                                    It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

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...

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 s...

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....
