Monday

 The morning started with rain.  That was good and bad.  Bad because I wasn't in the garden.  Good because everyone in the garden got a good drink.  Not that a lot of drinking hasn't occurred this year.  There has been plenty of that so a little bit more after a few dry days off wasn't a bad idea.  I must admit that good is winning. Yesterday's garden gave me so many bug bumps.  I'm covered even though I was covered with clothes.  So maybe the bad stuff has turned into a good reason to avoid the garden today.  Bug Bumps that ITCH!!!

 I moved all these flowers from the now Dahlia bed to another one, thinking they would not bloom this year.  Well,  there are more flowers then there ever have been.  Happy little posies. Yes...more rain.


There was breakfast and coffee with TV.  Not French Vanilla or Hazelnut Creamer.  Just TV.  It was a slow morning but a few things happened.  At 10:30 I was off to see the C doctor downtown Indy at the Simon Center.  It's an every three month's deal but for what ever reason I was sure the last visit was last month.  I guess the visits are memorable.  Then I checked the trusty calendar. March 23 was the visit date. So another three months has past.  Yikes time flies for sure.  But today I saw the PA.  I liked her just as much as B Schneider. 

        Another old fashioned been here a long time flower whose name I've forgotten.  It seeds itself!

Then it was on to the scheduling of new Dr. Schneider, Pet Scan, and Infusion visits which was a total mess of an experience.  But I was determined to finish all of that, leaving nothing to chance or undone.  I was ready to climb the wall sitting with what I called a totally incompetent scheduler.  One that should have had more training before meeting a patient.  After receiving some erroneous information I finally reported her to the head of the department who took over finishing the job. I was P O'd and they knew it. I have lost my filter.

                                   My well behaved little hedge hog always ready to show off. 

I had a few other things to do but just skipped everything and came on home.  Rosie was skipped. That should tell you a whole lot.  But on the way I saw a rather bad accident with a little car almost buried in the ditch..  My first thought was someone else had a very bad day.  Maybe my day wasn't so very bad. Maybe just bad.

I reported in to Doug and then spent some time on the phone gathering information and making another appointment with Dr. Raju for next week.  Yes, life could be better but it's not all bad for sure.  I'm feeling blessed with good doctors and answers to questions.


             I found the last flower a few days ago.  It's looking a bit prouder to be seen..  Maybe?

I had a very late lunch and spent some minutes that I could find watching soccer.  Argentine won again.  They may come out on top when this is all over even though I heard the same thing about the USA team.

The rain kept me in doors although I did make a visit with the Dahlia family. I moved two cups up.  I think the plants are big enough to take care of themselves. I'm seeing a lot about Dahlias on Facebook this year.  Maybe I'm just paying more attention to that flower currently. I made a run to the drugstore and unloaded the library books at the library, of course.  Supper happened and then there was more soccer.  I was happy to have the day end after all that was a part of this Monday.  Tomorrow should be an "empty" day.  There will be plenty to fill it I'm sure.  You will get a report. 

Blessed be the tie that binds me to all of you who travel this trip of life together.  Who ever you may be.

Red sails in the morning, Sailors take warning.   The warning sign was miss thinking about a wonderful day with a gorgeous sunrise, but it turned into anything but wonderful. And after yesterday's blog entry, what was hoped to be a good week had a dismal beginning.  Jared called to tell us that Sunday evening Wyatt, their beautiful red poodle stopped eating and by three in the morning of Monday as Jared was driving to Lancing to the Vet at Michigan State, Wyatt died.  Wyatt was one wonderful dog in every sense of the word.  Smart, friendly, protective with absolute understanding about so many things.  Today and the days ahead will be days of mourning eventually becoming times of reflections about all the good that Wyatt brought to us.  His camping chair is now sitting in our living room reminding us of that goodness he gifted us.  After hearing about this event, I took a walk outside to clear my head and heart and found the first of many crocus bl...

 The morning started off with breakfast and then a trip with Eric to Nora where he catches the bus to Indy.  I always love these trips in the winter often accompanied with a beautiful winter sun rise.  The morning light was coming through but it will be even better in another month.  I have taken some beautiful pictures in the early morning.   Home again and I did some sewing and some knitting.  The usual stuff that seems to be the winter work.  Ten more burps and I finished another scarf, one that could have been finished yesterday.  I was thinking no rush which is really true.  There is no rush. All the ripped fabric has been sewn so it would seem new ripping will happen soon. This noon was our first North Side North Church noon lunch instead of supper.  No driving in the dark for three months.  There were eleven of us, a smaller group but we all sat around one long table which was really nice.  And there was so much tal...

 Another Monday.  There have been many.  I think I've had 1524 of them.  Math wasn't my best subject, but I think that number is close to being correct. I am more than grateful.  In another 13 days soon to be 87 with 52 Mondays in a year.  Should I have added the 0 year?  Yikes. There are many Mondays.  Go figure yours.   There was breakfast and the garden walk and sure enough, sleep gave the embarrassed zinnias a gift.  They look great although a day in the sun will have some affect.  Tomorrow they should really feel good.   I did a bit of clipping this morning and found that yesterday and today's deer food resulted in 63 naked stems with not a day lily bloom left to show themselves to the world.  Grr for sure.                              The leftovers from the midnight meal of daylilies. Who turned on the lights?  ...
