plasma donation on a liquid diet


Keeping with our liquid diet we had only a smoothie for breakfast before heading out to donate plasma. Thinking that if we got there early we could just get in and get out, we left before the kids woke up. The place was packed. Long wait with some loud people. It took almost 3 hours before we got back home and I was definitely hungry and tired. I made us some corn soup and some coffee.

Was getting grumpy and cranky, not sure if it is do to missing my meds yesterday and today, being on this diet thing or maybe I am just cranky and grumpy.

Only 8 more hours on liquid diet to go.

quick review

time flies and alot has happened and i'll try to remember everything. Mel and I have started to donate plasma and have been in twice. It takes a little longer than we had hoped it would and we can't bring Strider into the place. I went to Toronto with Mike and Rob and we went on the whirlpool jet boat in to whitewater on the Niagara River, but doesn't really count as whitewater rafting. While I was up there I did by a Stephen Hawking book A Briefer History of Time and I bought two different types of wine from the Niagara region, but again, I have to read the book and drink and critique the wines in order for them to count. We did see a Blue Jays game so that counts towards the professional sports games.
Today I chaperoned with Jaren to the Cumberland Fair with school. It was a lot of fun and we had a beautiful sunny day.

I think I got everything, it is hard to remember what has been going on without writting daily. I will try to keep up.
