How many times do you get to use the word "whence?" Ken and I made it to the top of the lighthouse (224 steps). We spent some time taking in the views from all directions (and recovering from the climb) before heading back down.
Our mornings are still below zero, but the highs seem to be getting a little higher each day. My blood work got done yesterday. Now I can log in and download the results. The woman who checked me in was puzzled as to why I was getting the blood type. All the other blood work is covered by the national health system and our supplemental insurance policy. But the blood type test, since is wasn't required for any medical reason, was on me. It cost 24 euros. I'll write it down on the vaccination record card that I keep in my wallet and also in a file on the computer.
The view was worth the climb!
ReplyDeleteI never even thought of a blood-type test costing anything! I remember doing it at school in middle school, with just a little finger prick and a card to drip your blood on... I think? :) But, smart to have it on record.
ReplyDeleteThis year (and I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier!), I started keeping a spreadsheet (Google sheet) with all of those little bits of info you kind of need to keep track of, but where do you put it? Like, I'm going to add my blood type to it today (if I can find where I stored it on my computer!), and I put the date that my husband got a new battery for his car, and the date we got the new blower on our furnace... stuff like that (then, since it's a Google spreadsheet, I can access it from anywhere, with my phone).
