Alex's even longer post thread.

Kristi had some blood tests that came back showing severe anaemia. Because she has some unusual stuff in her blood (she has stuff that she should only have if she'd had a blood transfusion before. Since she hasn't these results caused some minor confusion), they need to mix up some stuff specially in Aberdeen then ship it over to Elgin, so she'll be getting two pints of blood put in tomorrow. Presumably they are also going to take two pints out. She'll be in hospital all day, and from when they got the test results until tomorrow, she's had to spend the whole time resting. The nurse said she'll see an immediate different in her energy levels.

With a week to go before I was supposed to give Kristi her annual Samhain diorama (I give her it on the 1st of October), I had to accept the planned project was not going to get finished, so I did a two part Scooby Doo one. One half has the gang along with the Mystery Machine, while the other has some classic bad guys (Miner 49er, 10,000-volt Ghost, Captain Cutler and the Clown Ghost. Got it finished on the last night of September. I had no idea what to do as a Yule scenario, but a friend suggested Narnia, so I am building the set for that now. I've done a grass base with melting snow, and the stone table as a background, found a Snow Queen figure and a Lion, so now I need the children, maybe a Dwarf with a whip if I can find a suitable figure.

Hugs to you all, especially Kristi.
