Accomplishments

Yesterday was a great day, even though I had to drive all over the cities for several hours of errands.  But after I finally got home in the early afternoon, I started work beading on my BFAC box and have almost finished it.  The heavy beading is complete, and I can do the fill-in beadwork around my sun tonight.  Then all I need to do is place my Swarovski crystals where I want them to go and glue them into place, mount the beadwork onto the box and mount the disk as the final step.  An end is most certainly in sight. 
I dropped by my friend Eleanor's office on the way home from dropping Meghan off after breakfast yesterday.  (Whew!  That's a bit of a confusing sentence, isn't it?)  I had been quite worried about Eleanor.  We normally get together for breakfast every Thursday morning and she had cancelled the past two weeks because her companion/husband was literally deathly ill - heart attacks and pacemakers, etc.  Not good.  But he is home from the hospital now and we can get together today, just at a later time.  So I'll add some more miles to my car, turn things on at the shop first, and then drive north to meet her for breakfast.  I'll have to see if this later time will become the new permanent routine because snow days may be a problem with this increased driving in bad snow.  But, for the summer and fall, it won't be a problem.  Right now she can't leave Lee on his own and has to wait until the home health care worker arrives for his/her shift.  She has two home health care people every day helping her out right now, one for the daytime and one for the afternoon/evening.  That can run through money quickly so I hope they will be OK through this.  I spent a half-hour with her getting the update on what had happened to Lee and how he was doing.  He almost died several times, so she's been understandably on edge.  Lee could use some positive white light if anyone reading feels as if they would like to send positive thoughts his direction.  I hope you have a day of accomplishments today!
