in the wake of the vampire

I do like my midwife but when she takes blood, your arm stays like this for days. This is the result of Monday's attempt.

One of those days today where I didn't really stop. Although I didn't dread the subject of the presentation at our meeting tonight, I was definitely dreading being seated for an hour and a half. Even taking on the physio's advice, it hurt.

Probably didn't help that I was sat for another hour and a half immediately before this helping to shortlist questions for the interviews for my maternity cover. I was glad to be involved though.
