Some more scavenging... and collapsible veins

-
Blood test needed today (just to check things), and with the weather being DRY (high humidity and feeling as if thunder is about to hit soon, but DRY!) I decided to get some exercise and walk the 20 mins to the other medical practice. 

Due to muggy weather my veins played up a bit and played "collapsible" hide & seek - my history with blood tests pre-Twins wasn't that great (rolling veins, lots of poking to get a vein by DOCTORS - nurses usually get them quickly), but as I don't need constant blood tests anymore since the girls were born the nurses usually got the veins in one go. Today we had 2 attempts (one on each arm) but a medical student (feel so bad for her!), and then the nurse went for my hand ... I'm not sore or anything, high pain threshold and being used to that anyway... ;) 

Nice walk back, and I managed to get 2 more photos for the scavenger hunt. 

A WINDOW
Drumbrae Edinburgh Leisure Poolside Windows - not see-through due to refurb of pool


A CAMPER/CARAVAN











A caravan on the way back home - thought I'd have more problems to find one

So missing and needing before 22/9 are:

  • A paw/foot print
  • A porch/deck
  • A bicycle
  • Fresh Produce
  • A map showing a trip taken during hunt period 
  • A Supermarket basket/trolley full of groceries
  • A photograph of you with a newspaper dated of current hunt period


They're all manageable before 22nd I think! ;)

Christmas Journal Entry #2

Phew!!! Took me longer than I thought!!! :) Maybe I should leave the crafty bits out ... I am a slow scrapper after all (found that out at the Cyber Crop!!). But have to say I LOVE that LO. Used acetate with stazon white opaque (over photo), snowflake eyelets, snowflake button and snowflake vellum sticker. The prompt today suggested we cut a paper snowflake ... well, I had three attempts and am absolutely rubbish at it!! So I decided I try my luck with a quilled snowflake ... first time ever for me to do a snowflake and you can see the wonky result! LOL.

 Here is my Final Round up for the Photo Scavenger Hunt 2013: 1. Open air market (Market Stall outside Kew Station, London) 2. Theater for performing arts (not a movie theater) ( Edinburgh Festival Theatre ) 3. City Hall, Capitol or other similar civic building (Dumfries Council Buildings) 4. Airplane (Our Virgin Flight plane to London) 5. A sunset (opted for another picture than posted before, as this sunset is more stunning! It’s taken at Knockbrex House, Dumfries & Galloway, with view of the Bay) 6. Someone or something taking a nap (there’s too much cuteness about, and still so many photos of the Hobbits falling asleep ) 7. A sign that is intentionally or unintentionally funny (Seeing it was Maple Pecan Ice cream, the note  “May contain other nuts” makes you really wonder…) 8. A tower (Watch tower at St. Cuthbert’s graveyard, Edinburgh, defending against grave robbery) 9. A photo with someone or something that is clearly out of place or doesn'...

Day 15 ...

Mmmmh... headaches, a little pulling pain, and now some dark brown spotting (but really just a little, goes away after dabbing - SORRY, TMI!) ... wonder if my body decided to take its time and does implantation bleed later than normal???? I don't think that both embies are making it ... but I have a little hope that maybe my little 1-grader (LOL) hangs on!!! Could do with the long wait though .... :( Tomorrow we're off to Newcastle for the day ... bit walking about, going to the MetroCentre for Big Luke's (first time), Hotel Chocolat (first time in Newcastle) and Hobbycrafts - and Toys R Us for Doug... :D Mood goes up and down ... considering what we woman (and partners/hubbies) are going through with IVF we should get a definite YES or NO!!! Not such a stupid limbo stuff!!! :( Little one, hang on ... maybe your great granddad (RIP) can help you to stick???
