Thursday

Today was much like yesterday with perhaps one exception.  I went to church at the Washington Cathedral watching the service honoring Jimmy Carter.  It was remarkable in so many ways.  I'm glad I had the time to see and hear his service.  

                                        Old vacation memories along Lake Superior.

There was bird watching from time to time with nothing unusual happening.  My friend Rita who lives two miles south of us entertained the Hawk this afternoon. 


                                                I'm happy to see that he is getting around. 

                Lake Superior rooks framing a summer garden.  Snow doesn't come close to color.
 

Doug and I spent some time at the Y doing our thing.  I'm on the treadmill and bike again.  Doug does the treadmill and the machines.  Rita and Bob were there.  We stayed a little longer today.



There was some TV watching about the fire.  Eric and Kat have good friends living approximately 10 miles east of the inferno. Then an evening of college football with Notre Dame and Penn State.  Wintertime turns me into a hermit.  I might to some ripping of flannel tomorrow.  Sewing needs to come later. 

                                                                        Something is missing.

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....
