Spinach Muscles again...

Three down two to go. Off to Aintree again this morning for the weeklsy dose of Venofer.. Bit of a faff today though. Parking was a bit of a pain but eventually got a spot in the upper car park, so that was ok.
The nurse decided my hands were too cold and it would be hard to get the vein, so went off and came back with a wheat pillow which I had to keep my hands under. that took twenty minutes. Then the blokey staff nurse came and moved it to my arm and went off again. Another ten minutes went by, and he then came and put the saline in. Another ten mins and the Venofer went in. That was all ok, till after about twenty mins it stopped dripping. Twenty mins after that he came to attend to someone else, and sat talking to her for ten mins, caught his attention, and he got it going again. Boring.... Drip drip drip..but a bit quicker.Eventually...got out of there at 11.45!! Poor poor patient VT..sat waiting so patiently..Bless him, and never a word of complaint. God love him.
Then went to M&S for a coffee well earned. Nice coffee shop there, Sainsbury's could do with a visit there. Lovely coffee and nice surroundings, and spotlessly clean with tables cleared as soon as you leave them.
Got our vegetables and a few bits and pieces and came home just in time for lunch.
Next doors little ginger cat came out to greet us as we arrived. What a little star that cat is. It doesn't come out for anyone elses car just VT's..aaah.. then it runs up the path for its biscuits.Its a lovely cat, I wish it was ours really.
Tonight we are having:
Escalope.
vegetables with a sauce, something from the mix I have in the fridge,
Mushrooms,
Sliced potatoes.Maybe sauteed.
