Bleeding transfer.

We brought Elsy back to the specialist to take a look at her nose and he re-cauterized the area he fixed the first time. Apparently it didn't heal properly. He told us to really gel up that area so that it completely heals and to make sure no mining is going on there.

He also sent us to check on blood work in case there was something out of the ordinary. I took the day off so figured that we could do it right away, but alas the clinic was by appointment only and they were fully booked. We did find another clinic outside of town and amazingly enough, it was dead empty. The difficulty was convincing Elsy to go. Once she realized what we needed her to do, she got very anxious. It was all very natural and we bribed her with toys but what surprised me the most was that during the procedure, she just stared at the needle and watched the blood come out. No crying, just fascination.

Speaking of blood, I had my blood drawn a week ago, and coincidentally enough, my nose started bleeding last week..

This was in contrast to the infrequent visits to our old neighborhood when I was a child. In addition, we were too poor to really enjoy a cone of soft ice cream when it did show up so I never built up that sense of tradition that others would share with their children. As suck, when the truck does drive by, I don't rush out to grab a cone for my kids. Also, the pandemic does not help either. Still, maybe one day this summer we will indulge our kids. Maybe. Oh, but that was beside the point. Today I heard the ringing of a bell. This was not the sound I'm used to for an ice cream truck so I decided to investigate with Serena. As the truck drive by, I wondered to myself how such a small truck could be used to sell ice cream much less any kind of food. But then it dawned on me: this was not a food tru

We were planning on going to the beach this morning but our plans got derailed when Serena stomped on Elsy's face and we had to wait for the bleeding to stop. It took so long that there was a chance we needed to go to the hospital. In the end, we thought it too risky to leave the house this morning lest the gusher started again, and so we set up the water table at home instead.

So it seems as if the link I had to the Polynesian Cultural Centre was flagged as a bad site. I double checked the link and, yup, I got a warning when I tried to visit it. I double checked if the link was changed and no, the search and Wikipedia still point to the same page so.. I just removed the link. We will see how the repost goes.
