Oh what a beautiful morning

It's going to be a beautiful day.... sun shining front door open and a lunch date with Vickie who has this thing about reminding us how close we are getting to Christmas! It has been some time since our last meeting due to commitments so we are looking forward to catching up. I have not been on the computer these last few days. I have blog catching up to do for sure. I have been working in the garage in the early morning before  it gets too hot. I have a trunk load to hand off to Vickie for the school donation. Slowly clearing out what I am not using or will use or just do not what/need anymore. My trash/recycle guys are going to wonder if I am moving out. No indeed, instead it is who is moving in!
After so long of planning and counting away the months the time has arrived. The Brother Alan and Lisa are arriving next week.... yes they are.
In between the garage and other stuff I began the last dragonfly. This is the one that Catherine so generously helped me by sending me the right beads for the eyes.  As much as I like Mill Hill kits, there were a few issues with these. Of course having had them for a several years and never checking them, there is not much to do about the issues now except make the replacements of what is missing. The first two I made were complete so I did not check the remaining three. Thank you for the caring thoughts on my blood pressure issue. Although it has lowered a little, I am still in the Stage 2 Hypertension area which is still a concern for me. So far my bloodwork is all within normal range. I am walking a few mornings and an adjustment to one of my meds has been done. Working on it.. Glad you had time to visit. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.

GracieI I just thought of something, maybe your blood pressure issue is due to all the work you are doing and the excitement of Alan and Lisa are coming, maybe just a thought.
I love dragonflies, they are so beautiful to look at, I have had issues with Mill Hill kits myself, lucky that we are beader's and have a stash of beads.
I hope your temps stay on the cool side for you.

Hugs
Catherine

Sounds like Catherine hit the needle on the head with your blood pressure maybe it is time to relax alittle and try and wait patiently for your brother and Lisa to arrive and not so much work in the garage. Don't over due. Sit and relax for a bit. Enjoy the day and lunch with Vickie. Big hugs. I know my blood pressure goes up when I get excited.

I am sure you had a very nice lunch with Vicki. Feels good to clean up and clear out, doesn't it? Take care! Lisa and Alan are coming so very soon!!
