And to think August WAS supposed to get better!

So - I had thought that August would bring in better days at work! Alas - not so much...

Toady I had my first blood drive in August BOMB. URGH! I feel so disappointed and sad. Why do people not want to give blood. I mean, I know it is scary and there are needles, but it truly isn't that bad. The finger prick hurts worse. The truth is, blood levels are critical and we ALL have a community responsibility to get on the bed and give the gift of life. One hour people - three lives saved and/or improved. I tried to give today, but my iron levels were down...they told me to eat more liver and onions, but since that WILL NEVER HAPPEN, I will stick to raisens and oatmeal. If you are a blood donor, good for you! If you aren't, I understand that not everyone wants or can donate. It is just aggrivating that I am

In other - nonwork related and happier - news...next week I will be in FL! I cannot wait to go to the Magic Kingdom. I so hope that the TIKI Birds and It's a Small World After All can turn my frown upside down! And fireworks...and Sea World...and Cirque De Solque...and ANYTHING BUT BLOOD DONATION TALK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully I will be able to post more later this week - with no blood talk!

If anyone of you are the praying or willing type - please get on the blood drives improving, no rain in FL next week, no hurricanes or other natural disasters in FL next week as well, let Lindsay keep her job, and make her head go away!

OK, that should be all for now!

Lindsay
