Well, the carpets got
cleaned, as scheduled, and so the last remnants of our cat Snaps are gone
(ground-in cat hair, urp stains – so we’re not all that sorrowful about
it). And Wednesday went as scheduled:
Bible study, lunch, stitching, pizza night sleepover.
But Thursday morning, during
the hasty wash and dress part, I had a dizzy spell so big I actually fell
down. It scared all of us, and I elected
to stay home from the State Fair.
Bummer. The other three had a
great time: perfect weather, good food, interesting exhibits. I, on the other hand, was unsteady on my feet
the rest of the morning – but fine in the afternoon and thereafter. I think the dizziness is the result of a med
I’m taking. There is a warning of
dizziness on the label, though it seems now it was a one-off, I haven’t had
another “spell.”
As expected, I didn’t win a
ribbon for my Christmas stocking – but amazingly, Tanya did, for her
needlepoint of thirteen colorful lizards.
She came in fourth, and a pink ribbon draped her entry. Wonderful surprise to her, though imo she
deserved it, and I’m only a little jealous.
The weather has turned cool, there are trees just starting to show color. It's been an eventful spring and summer. I've been to the driving range but have sprained my ankle and so not met my goal (yet!) of going a round of par-three, nine-hole golf. But it hasn't snowed yet, nor have we had frost, so there's still a chance I'll make it.
This Saturday at one in the
afternoon I’ll be doing an appearance and signing at Books and Beans, a
coffeehouse in Shawano, Wisconsin.
Address: 1235 E. Green Bay
Street. My
brother and his wife live in Shawano, and we’ll be staying with them. Come on by, I’ll have a package of Oreo
cookies to share!

Monica - I hope you are feeling better. I just started your newest book over the weekend and am truly enjoying it. Best wishes to you.
Hope you get better.
Sorry you haven't been feeling well, and I hope that changes fast, a result of a med or not. And wish I could be there for your Oreo cookies!
I'm sorry you missed the fair. It sounded like you were really looking forward to it. I hope the dizzy spell was just a fluke.
