Started the day with a blood test at Royal Berks. Managed to time it very well and didn't have to wait and the phlebotonist found a vein first go using a tiny needle and a butterfly. Then a shopping trip and now - needing a sleep!

I will probably not blog for the next few days except to update after my hospital visit tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow I have school lunch and hospital visit. Friday ladies bible study lunch here followed by GP visit. Saturday Strictly Final party and Sunday Nativity in the morning and carol service in the evening. Lots of lovely things - as always hoping I have enough energy for it all.

I hope you all have lovely weekend plans and that you find time to stop and consider what Christmas is really about. Jesus given for us. Immanuel.
