2. Do you donate blood? Do you know your blood type?  I have given blood 3 times.  I have been rejected since then, cause I have white coat syndrome.  In a blood donation centre there are MANY people with White coats on and that makes my blood pressure sooo high I might explode.  And they send me home.

Just another manic monday..

One weekend merges into another. 

We are wishing our lives away.  Monday comes, and we are counting down the minutes til the next weekend.  

We fill every waking moment of the weekend with as much fun and action as possible, and wham. it's gone, and it's monday again.

this week, Am going to try to do something more every single day - get the most out of life on every single day. 

Right now - Am heading to bed ....

Highlight of this weekend - we ate the very first sweet corn we grew from a corn kernal!

It took 19 weeks from planting on the table in the dining room, til it came to fruit on Saturday!

It was DELISH. 


Now we are contemplating a new freezer to keep the other 30 or so cobs which should keep us going til next year :-)
