Beautiful MB. Tis a great day today, tis. Katie be feelin' thu call o' her Irish blood. An may thu good Lard be blessin' ye also.

Had a meeting this morning at Tourism and then went to get my blood work. As usual the girl couldn't find a vein. She said did you drink any water? I said, "No, they always tell me not to ear or drink anything." She said it's okay to drink water. Now, I've been having difficulty getting blood drawn all my life and nobody ever told me I could drink water beforehand and it would make my veins easier to find. That's what I hate about the health care system. Nobody ever tells you anything. I think they enjoy torturing us. Grrrrr.

Awww......poor thing. My mom had the same problem with her veins. They told her to drink water before a blood test, that it would help keep her veins from shrinking away from the needle.

You take care. I know you don't think much of doctors, but they are a necessary evil, sometimes. Get your leg checked out.
