The end and the beginning

This year I ended one job and started another.
Today , fittingly , we had a 12 day old baby girl in the shop and dispensed a prescription for a 102 year old lady . Beginings and ends - where will they take us?
I hope you all have a wonderful New Year and many more of them.
Take care

Rebellious Body

Well after being unusually healthy since August and hoping that I'd finally turned the corner healthwise, I woke Wednesday with very bad upset stomach . Couldn't risk the bus journey to work (more than an hour with no toilet access ) so rang in sick. Slept most of the day in the hope of recovering but woke with sore throat , temperature and swollen glands - developed ear ache as well later so had to text to say I'd be back Monday.
Didn't think I'd be able to do Saturday - Bath - but I felt better after resting a few days so it probably was my body in protest mode.
The American Museum at Claverton Manor http://www.americanmuseum.org/default.cfm/loadindex.198 was decorated for Christmas with a Flights of Fancy theme. We met the ladies of the Sampler Guild http://www.thesamplerguild.co.uk/ and started with a lovely cup of coffee and home made cookies then made a raid on the book shop and Christmas decorations. Then it was back to the cafe for lunch - for Ellie baked potato with lots of cheese , for me butternut squash soup and chunky homemade bread. Then we toured the house , with Ellie hunting kites with Father Christmas notes attached.Then it was back to the cafe to meet up with the ladies and compare goodies !!! Then home by train , bus and foot - shame about the rain .
Forgot to say the wonderful quilts and hook rugs are amazing and well worth a visit on their own
