FRIDAY's FAVE FIVE

My bronchitis, which loved me so much stayed for almost two weeks, is now finally leaving me. 

On Tuesday, I was supposed to have a blood test. At 7 a.m., all the lights in my room were suddenly switched on, and a male nurse wheeled his squeaky cart into my room and informed me that he was going to draw my blood. I held out my arm, and he fiddled with his cart for a while. Finally, he found what he needed, but unfortunately not my vein, with which I have never had any trouble before. So he took my hand. I felt a slight stitch, but it didn't really hurt. Then he took a whole roll of bandages and wrapped it around my hand. I told him not to use the whole roll, my hand looked like a boxer's, but he didn't have any scissors. I offered him my scissors, but he refused and kept wrapping. Then he fiddled with his cart again and wheeled the squeaky thing out. I yelled to turn off the lights and close the door. Then I wanted to continue to sleep, but with my boxer hand it was impossible. 

When I woke up I had this nice Halloween hand !

                                         

 Now, at the end of the week I have blue fingers added. Countless times I am asked, "what did you do to   your hand ?" 

The worst was, that the test had to be repeated the next day, because the nice colored one was not right. This time I had the "Queen" blood taker and didn't feel anything and nobody could see anything either. No worries, I am still alive ! 

I tried a little round in our park again, but the air must have been very bad, although the sun was shining and I had to return and remain inside. 

The glass cover of my lamp over the bed was broken and I have got new ones, they are much prettier then the old once. Our "man for everything" did a very good job and as he was already there, I also asked him to connect my  luminosity therapy lamp. My doctor recommended it because we don't have enough light.

 

In countries like Sweden, Norway, and Finland, these lamps are standard in every household. You sit in front of it for half an hour and soak up some vitamin B. It won't give you a tan, but it's good for your health.

For the moment there are a lot of changes here, as floor 4 has started to be transformed and floor 3 is done. Therefore people had to change rooms, the fugitives, and the brain damaged and we see them not so much anymore. 

Little Rosie has put on some weight, which makes me happy as she goes towards 20 years now !
