It's been a funny old week. Lots going on - most of which I cannot say yet.
One good piece of news is that I had a blood test today - obviously no results yet but it was at a small cottage hospital and they were so nice. It was easy to park, amazingly quick service, no wait and totally wonderful - well as wonderful as a blood test could be.
I always have dire problems getting blood as apparently I have no veins.
I went into the room and there were two nurses there and I explained my usual issue and they both looked at my hands and arms and said'wow, there really isn't anything there'. Bit worrying that really. Anyway they told me to go to the sink in the corner and run my hands under the hot water for 5 mins which I did. And she was in first time, no collapses, no slips, just straight into a vein and blood out.
Best blood test I have ever had.
Kira also had blood tests this week and her results show a possible kidney issue which was what we expected as she is drinking a lot and she is of that age. We now have the joyous job of collecting a urine sample. That is such fun with cats!
I have new scrapping to share today with a brand new release by Eurdora Designs
A friend - who has the most gorgeous daughters - has let me have photos of her girls to scrap and this is the first one I have scrapped. She is stunningly pretty and I know I am going to love working with their photos.
Today I am thankful for
- a painless trouble free test
- FRIDAY
Hope your weather is getting better over there.
Wow! What a great thing to know about warming up your skin to get the veins to behave for a draw! I know those tests are difficult for you. I have other friends who have difficulty with their blood draws, I may pass on the idea!
"Beautiful Past" looks like a lovely kit, and it really sets off the black and white photo! <3
Stay warm and enjoy your weekend!
