 Another virtual trip North. One can never have too many of those.

                                                              Too BIG to fit in the picture. 

'm going to start this entry this morning.  It's that darn brain fog that makes me forget stuff.  Well, fog gets the blame.  Who knows for sure.  There was breakfast and then a Tylenol for what seemed a stir up of inside the body stuff.  Am I imagining  Maybe.  I decided to fertilize the Dahlias and then thought better would be a good watering and then fertilizing.  So the watering happened and the fert. will happen this evening.  I'm trying to stay clean meaning unmuddied this morning.  

                                                At the entrance to the children's garden.

Today is a Ramona day.  A day to care for someone who needs care and her family members in need of help.  I was off to Community North to find her cancer doctors office.  Kim was the responsible person with this assignment to be with Ramona.  But mine responsibilities came with the next appointment.  We traveled farther south on Shadeland to see her eye doctor for another evaluation about her cataracts and a possible surgery date.  At this appointment we called Ramona's doctor daughter Olivia again now living in Portugal allowing her to get both doctors evaluation of the day.  The world has shrunk a bit.  Kathy's granddaughter calls her grandmother living in Carmel from Denmark when walking home from school.  How big is the world to that sweet granddaughter?  I would say smaller than I remembered. 



Kim, Ramona and I had a bit to eat at the hospital.  Kim went on her way home and I was on my way south on Shadeland to the eye doctor who took us right in. Ramona had a reevaluation and some decisions were made concerning the surgery to come at some point soon.  More appointments are on the book so busy seems not to be going anywhere but full steam ahead. 

                                            More floating balls on every little water feature.

By 4 Ramona was home just south of Sheridan and I was on my way back to Carmel feeling this day qualified entry into the well done column if one had such a thing. The day's evaluation included the word tuckered out for each of us. I took time to sit a spell watching the second half of the soccer game. My bracket was busted.  I thought France would win.  So now I've moved to Spain and Argentina.  Supper happened.  Dahlias?  They got their enhanced drink with a bloom booster high middle fertilizer number that should help buds to appear.  The plants look pretty happy.    


Another bunch of tuckered ladies still having a very great fun day. OOPS.  An unknown took this one.

Tonight's pictures are more Grand Rapid pictures that Kathy took.  Remember?  My camera checked out a little early that day.  Tomorrow an Endoscopy.  I'll do anything for a picture.  I wonder if they will give me one.

                                   A nice ending to an interesting day.  Fresh flowers are always refreshing.  I woulad call this a little crazy day.  Meaning the unexpected was part of the morning.  But first... A great night of sleep again thinking it was six o'clock when it really was seven.  Now an extra hour of sleep never hurt anyone.  There was breakfast of course with a little TV. Yesterday I finished sewing and turning 30 burps, so the order of the morning was to iron all of them with top stitching in mind at some point. And there was time to iron all 30.             I did some straw flower seed saving.  It's a repeat of last fall that worked well this spring. Then it was off to church to pick up and put away all the things that supported the six weeks of sermons on prayer.  I love these lit...

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...
