How quickly a day changes

Well, I never tatted from my new book, I never enjoyed sitting outside....instead it was several hours in the ER for me. Remember the visit with the doctor for my knee? When they took my blood pressure it was sky high and they did take it several times. So it was suggested that I follow up with my doctor if it remain high. I took my pressure later that evening and then again yesterday morning...more than once, and it was still very high. Do off to the ER Mr H and I went. After time spent with the monitor hooked up, an IV inserted, chest x-rays and blood work, they found nothing wrong...not to worry but still follow up with my PCP. They did give me another BP med ( I already take 2 a day) right there and an RX for it to take for 14 days. So.......when we arrived back home I was too tired and sore...did I mention that I have the bruise of bruises at the IV site?, and just felt out of sorts. Not a good day at all. I am starting this one with a headache and still a very sore right arm.....my stitching/tatting arm. Even though the temps will be in the 90s, I hope to sit outside and tat after I get my new med at the pharmacy. As Dennis sat with me in the ER room, he said "we should have brought your new tatting book". I looked down at my right arm...IV, then to my left arm...BP machine and yes, the right index finger attached to a gadget...."Denny ( that is what I call him) now how would I even hold the book". "Oh you could manage"..at least he was thinking of me. About those Mourning Doves...there are 2 more eggs. Things look so pretty with flowers blooming and everything nice and green.  As I sit here and type, I just realized that this computer desk is still a mess....maybe later. Thank you for the kind words and for taking time to visit. Thank you most of all for your friendship. Let's all have a good day!
