JUST MOVING ALONG.

My how time rushes on.  Before you know it-another month is starting.  Thank goodness for the cooler weather it also brings.  I just got back from breakfast with the usual group.  New gossip and things of interest.  Eggs and bacon were good.  My they can cook eggs-over-light to my liking.  And I still am enjoying rye toast.  With Jan out of town, I have Saturday open and I miss her.  I know she is enjoying her grandchildren as well as Cary and David. 

Not a lot to tell so I will just get to filling my day with a few little chores.

P. S,

FALL FUN

 

Soon Fall weather will appear,

Bringing fresh energy with it.

For me, too much fun I fear.

So, I grab an apple and book and just Sit.

CHANGE OF PLANS

I was supposed to get my flu shot today- here.  They had to postpone it till next Tuesday, October 3 and Tuesday October 10th.  The vaccine shipment was delayed.  So I am at a loss as what to do today.  I went down and had breakfast at Cyber.  Was good. I must get the poem for the Library written.  Maybe that can be me gold for today, Seems I need one.  It needs to be only four lines and about October and the library.  Any ides which way to go?  I don't.

GOOD THINGS

Two great things have happened.  Amy had a man look at Truman's  coin collection.  She said he got so excited because it was so good.  Value not great , but worth more than we thought.  Of course we are keeping it and M.G, is going to organize it.  The appraiser made it easier .  He would be so happy to know that it is taken care of.  Next Amy and our Vet are determined to fine out what is the problem with Bitsy.  They brought in one of the older Doctors and I remember him from a while ago,  He tracked a rare parasite in her ears.  Said he had only seen one more case like it in 35 years of practice.  Taught the young guys something,  Amy said he was so excited and set to work to treat her.  I now have high hopes.  It wont happen overnight he said, but he thought he found the solution to her problem.  Bless her -for she has suffered since I got her.  Jan took off to Ft. Wayne this morning.  She needed a break.  So much she has had to take care of lately.  She will come back refreshed I hope.   Must run to exercise class.

MORNING HAS BROKEN

As the song goes--like the first morning.  Love that song.  I could not sleep well last night.  I had a few things on my mind that I could not put to rest.  I know what I should do but human like, I try to solve everything alone.  I got up before 6 and started my day.  It was still dark but almost day break.  I stepped out on the famous balcony and heard the first bird wake and saw  the first trace of light in the sky.  What a sight.  I thought how faithful God is again .  And how great he is.  So much bigger than all my troubles.  I found some peace in that.  Later I fixed my breakfast and took coffee outside again.  I saw the sun rise and it was beautiful.  The ducks are swimming and the geese  are grazing the meadow and I saw this couple come walking around the lake-every morning they do this.  How wonderful.  They said they have been doing this for 50 years and see not need to stop.  Good for them.  I will try once more to turn my troubles over to the Lord this day and take it one day at a time.

What a sermon~~forgive me again.  This blog helps me.

SUNDAY MORNING

I did not get to spend a long time on the balcony, because it is Sunday and I need to get ready for Church.  One of my favorites.  Since our new pastor has come, I really do enjoy it.  He brings good messages.  It seems the Canada geese are back in full force .  They make a joyful noise.  But not to all people.  I have to admit, they are a force to recon with.  They make too much noise and are too aggressive.  Makes people who walk the lake path nervous.  Don't blame them.  We still have many other creatures to watch. 

Well I must stop writing so I wont have to rush to get ready.  Don't handle "rush" too well any more.  I am worried about my kitty.  Can't seem to get her up and running.  Don't know what else to do.

WAFFLES & RYE TOAST

Breakfast was fun.  Two people ordered waffles.  They were beautiful, Belgium waffles.  One said the texture was nit right.  The server noticed he wasn't eating them.  She asked what was wrong.  He told her the story but they were o. k.  She insisted she make them again.  He already said he could eat only half they were so big. but accepted a new one.  Which he felt obliged to eat. He was full.  The other person who ordered one said nothing, but they brought her another one too.  So she is going to have waffles for breakfast Sunday (warmed over.)  Just thought it was funny but as I write it I know you had to be there to think so.  Now the Rye toast.  Last Saturday one of us discovered they had rye bread.  He shared a small bit with me.  I really liked it.  Didn't think I did when I last ate it a long time  ago.  It was good toasted.  Jan and I went to Wal-Mart for a few things for me.  We researched the rye bread.  They had at least 6 or 7 brands.  Can you believe it?  Ended up with COBBLESTONE BREAD CO.'S BROOKLYN RYE..  I just liked the name.(it sounded so official)  I just could not wait to try it, so I had a piece toasted just now.  Very good. 

Now, don't I have a lot to talk about?  Stay tuned--maybe something else interesting may come up.  Oh yes, I am boiling peanuts I just bought too. Yeh!!
