Friday

 And then there was another Friday.  That was today if I remember correctly.  I did a little sewing of some burps that were waiting for the last go around from yesterday's work.  Then Doug and I were off to see a new doctor for Doug.  It was a good visit and we have solutions to work on.  I'm sure they will be successful.  And then I noticed something...Where was my purse.  Dang.  It happened again but this time I forgot it at home.  Dah. With so much extra walking at the hospital looking, I decided the treadmill work at the Y wasn't necessary today. My brain is wearing out.  I was the driver this morning and the car started because Doug had a fob in his pocket. My fob had stayed in my purse in the kitchen.  Crazy, isn't it.  I'm driving myself nuts at a pretty fast pace.  I wonder how many nuts I have left.  Did I start with nine? Can't remember! 

Then back home on the ranch for the rest of the day.  There was more burp sewing.  Then some Christmas  sewing that includes some creativity.  My kind of thing.  I did more ripping of Galloway flannel sheets and Mamlin common ordinary sheets for more burps.  I'm getting ready for the next sewing marathon that's on the horizon.  

Beth texted with some projects she wanted sewn for Christmas gifts for her girls.  I'll visit her tomorrow to see what she is thinking about.  She has such great gift ideas for her family that I get to help with.  Fun, fun.

TV was interesting.  Naps were more interesting.  I texted Jared for some Christmas answers.  It's time for secrets. 

Laurel added two more angels to our Bruster nativity set,  Bless her heart.  It's a wonderful set and getting even better.  The three kings are a hoot!  



            I love her feet wrapped with ribbons.  A very whimsical nativity set.  Look it up.

Supper was warmed over veg. chicken soup again, this time with corn bread.  The soup gets better by the day.  Yum, yum.   We haven't had corn bread in a long time. 

Although there is one more day in this week I can say right now, it's been a very good week.  Not bad at all in the least.  A lot of things were accomplished that will bring back good memories. 

And Leslie...Yes...I'll make a mushroom top for your friend.  She can add the stick.  It's easier to mail with no stick.  Upper sticks work just as well as Indy sticks.  A dab of 6000 will hold everything together.  You taught me that.

 Another busy day with all day church.  It was worthwhile. Of course it started with some sewing machine stuff.  There are 50 new burps in the bin.  Yesterday I unloaded another 100 on to Ginny's porch.  So, we're well on the way to another 100.  This next one hundred will make a total of 500 this fall if my head is screwed on right.  Sometimes there are leaks.  Ginny gave me permission to slow down for a while.  I'll let that happen at the end of 500 needing that last bed sheet to reach that number.   Then off to church for another good day with church folks.  Remember your Baptism was the theme for the morning and all went well.                                                                            ...

 A good day with the usual stuff happening.  That's good enough for me.  I was up a little early with breakfast and a little TV but not much.  Spectrum was at it again.  Come on TV.                  Feverfew in it's second bloom.  I think it's a medicinal herb. Don't know for what.     I decided to work on the last 30 burps.  So that's what I did with the hope of getting them finished and on their way to Ginny at church.  Well, that didn't happen.  I ran out of time with only the last sewing to do on all 30.  They made it to the finish line in the afternoon. This is the third 100 in three weeks.  I think that's a new record.  I'm taking a break for a few days.  The nurses should have enough to keep them burp busy for a while.  I delivered the floor blankets so there will be something new for new born babies.         ...

                                                  Dahlias still showing their best side. I see some tired leaves. The morning was all about burps.  There were seventy to work on.  The next thirty needed a sheet for backing.  So the machine did the first sew around and then the scissors did the trimming.  The fabric scraps were deposited in the recycling bin.  Turning the right side to the outside was the next thing that needed to happen. I declared a break time.  But after the break...all seventy were turned ready for the iron.  Then more sewing and folding.  Woo...finishing is on the way.                Volunteer Cherry Tomatoes available for the picking.  I'm over tomatoes for this year.                ...
