Slacker

Call me slacker on the blog.  But not other places.  I am continuing to dig up wild onions in my front flowerbed.  It a uck job with what looks like no end.  That's an almost every morning job of about 45 minutes at the least.  I'm not planting anything in that bed which goes across most of the front of the house until I can see the onions gone.  Might take all fall and more.  The sewing machine is going again.  I found a pattern for visors and have made about 25 so far.  Giving some to soup kitchen workers and hope to sell some to school cafeteria workers through Beth G. who works at one of the Carmel Schools.  Church continues as well.  Xmas decorations are almost finished.  Other fall displays are around the church.  Blessing of the Animals is tomorrow so St. Francis is out and about.  Communion parts are in place for Sunday.  Made some Doc. calls this week and now have an appointment for knee fixin happening early in Feb.  I think I can hang in there that long.  Gardening will be finished for sure at that point and Xmas will be long over.  Shoulder got a shot.  Doc does not think that's it's a torn rotator.  Hope he is right.  Eye doc appointment is coming up next week.  Seems there is a growth over one of the eyes growing sometimes after cataract surgery.  Doug had one and guess it's my turn.  See...I've been busy!  I just decided to sit one day and make appointments and I did.  Mamlins are back in the states.  I spent a day cleaning their house.  It's BIG.  4 bathrooms and lots of rooms with a finished basement.  Took me three days to get over that.  Woo...Tomorrow I'm taking a friend to the airport.  She is leaving her car for Sarah Ellen to use so taking her to the airport is the least I could do to make this all work.  Daniel O. is coming to that same airport 2 hrs. later flying from Eldoret.  Daniel has been here many times with quite serious eye problems so there may be surgery this time.  Dick H. is meeting him at the airport.  Lots of trips going on tomorrow.  Spent time one evening at church with Umoja activities.  So...I'm always happy to be HOME!  Even though those darn onions are a problem I hate.
