Blood taken...
I went this past Friday to St. Joe's in Hamilton, To have the billions of vials of blood taken, I think more like 10 or 12 small ones...And the nurse I had was a real sweat heart, I just had to say something about her. She made me feel at ease and joked around with me, even the other nurse and patron who was getting blood done where all getting in the "spirit" I guess you could say.
It was a real treat to meet someone who was so nice and kind. I am glad for now, I am hoping I have to get my blood done once.
Now, if this darn cough and cold would go away...next year definitely getting my flu shot...
I hope everyone is doing well, and if I don't get to get on here again...
MERRY CHRISTMAS!! and a happy and healthy New Years to you and your families!! :)
