Giving It Up

Aaawwwwyeah, I'm talking about blood. Giving blood is one of those things I decided I should do more of in the new year. So when the opportunity presented itself, I decided to make a donation today at work.

It didn't hurt at all. The tape they use to keep the needle in place hurt more when they took it off. Rachel was great and a shout-out to Inova Blood Donor Services for coming to the Government Center and making it so easy to give.

Plenty of studies show that it's healthy to replenish your blood by giving. Your body produces more and it's fresh, it's like changing the oil in your car, which reminds me, I need to get the oil changed in my car.

Cooold Here

It got windy and froze over the day before. Of course that didn't stop me from going out and stopping off at the "Sev", otherwise known as the "Seven Eleven" or as my friends south of the border call it, "Siete Once".

Had to bundle the kids up.

Posting From Blogger App

So I abandoned The Blogpress App and got the Blogger App and will try to get a photo on this post.

This is Reet holding Emma when we had dinner at their place the day after Christmas.

(edit) Look at that, it works! Thanks Blogger and the Blogger App!

It Crapped-Out Again...

after i tried to upload a photo. WTF? I'll try reloading the App and then I'll move in if it doesn't solve the problem.

Blogging From My iPhone -Part 1

I have been trying to figure out a quicker way to blog and thought I would try doing it from my iPhone and see if this works. This is the second time I have written this entry on account of the last time, the app quit on me after I tried to add a photo.

So far, Blogpress hasn't "Wowed" me. If it can't upload a simple photo, it's not much help to me. I will try and upload a new photo in a few minutes and reinstall the App and see how that goes.

"Walking"

Emma "Walking" with some help from her walker toy. She did this yesterday and Kate captured it. This is the first time she has done this, right after Jack showed her, she just pulled herself up and did it. A quick learner.

Thanks for the Coat, GG

We got the package a week ago and I put her in the coat, its a bit big but she looks cute in it. Thanks, Mom.
