More sunshine peeping through the clouds. Hurrah! Blood taken yesterday after quite a wait. I think the whole of the Reading area were having their blood taken! It was VERY busy. The nurse used the tiniest of needles and the blood dripped out but at least she managed to get it. We did have a discussion about having to use my feet which is very tricky and painful apparently. I think we will give that a miss! I had a lovely visit to Hobbycraft and bought more bits for projects.

My new sim arrived while I was out so I now have a lovely working phone. It is like magic - it can do everything except make a cup of tea or wash up! It is my new window to the world. I am very glad Paul is so good with gadgets because I would never have been able to sort it all out - it is so complicated. He loves the maps!

I am not at all sure what happened to my post yesterday I wasn't trying to shout at you! It just appeared that size and I can't make it any smaller.

Today - some sorting of projects and tidying of craft stuff so that I can find everything. I think I need boxes but until I have sorted my stuff I don't know what boxes I need!

My blood results are good from yesterday. My creatinine has remained low - which is wonderful. my Gfr is 19 - this shows the amount of kidney function and has to remain above 10 for me to stay off dialysis. Normal kidney function is above 60. I was 16 when I stopped dialysis so it has risen. However (isn't there always a however) my phosphate levels have risen so I must watch my diet more carefully. I suspect it was too much milk and yoghurt recently. Ho hum! I did love that pudding! The good part is that my potassium levels remain completely stable and at an acceptable level.
