It has been a pleasant day for me, although it was a bit warmer than usual. I went to my usual Saturday morning breakfast with some friends which was intellectually fun. Then came home and worked in the garden for over an hour pulling big weeds which made a couple of large piles. I got several bug bites that itch. Read for a while in the afternoon, and Debbie read to me for quite a while. I dozed off for an afternoon nap. While I slept she made a fine midday meal of vegetables from our garden. It was wonderful. We walked to the dog park and sat for a while enjoying watching the dogs and people romp around. We talked and played word games. Not formal games just fussing around with subjects we both like and playing with the concepts we both enjoy. Unfortunately, there happened to be some pine pitch that had dripped onto the bench from the Ponderosa tree that was shading us. When we got home I fussed around with various stuff until the pitch was out, and hung the pants and jacket on the clothesline.

It was nothing special, just a pleasant day. I read quite a lot of the new Fortune magazine that came in the mail and took apart a pair of glasses whose frames had been messed up. I have made some frames out of baling wire for some sunglasses that are my favorite to wear because they are easily adjustable to various circumstances. Then I took my blood pressure an hour ago, with my OMRON which I have been doing frequently for over a month to create a baseline of observations. I have been having systolic blood pressure in the teens in the afternoon hours, and  higher in the evenings but quite good by most standards.

This reading was different.

Tomorrow is the UU meeting which has been excellent lately, and Debbie and I are meeting Leigh Anne for lunch. So, it will be a pleasant day too.
