Blood Donation Day
Day 300 Today was our third blood donation day at work. This is the blood & transplant service logo, as seen on their correspondence, as in my envelope:
As Wednesday is my ezine day I opted for an afternoon appointment, and I arrived at the end of a backlog, which cleared by the time I was donating after a few people couldn't donate. Despite all the spinach loading I think my iron levels were lower this time, maybe because I donated in the afternoon, or because my period ended earlier this week. Anyway, it all went well but I felt it more this time, my head was a bit squirlier for longer so I spent the rest of the afternoon eating biscuits.
