  hi everyone, it's been a long time since i posted on here(other than commenting on exsisting posts) and wanted to share something with all of you.. yesterday i donated blood for the first time.

  lightning did not strike me, i did not have a car accident on the way home and the blood committee was not waiting outside for me.. i have been researching blood donation for a couple of years, but never worked up the nerve to actually do it.

  the canadian blood services website is very informative and the woman i talked to when booking the appointment was very nice as well.. so, as i am driving to the appointment, i can feel my heart racing and my blood pressure going up.

  a couple of weeks ago i went on a school trip with my sons school.

  it was held in an sports arena.

  while sitting there looking at all the kids filing in and filling up the seats, my mind went to all the conventions i attended in similar venues.

  so... my condo complex is getting some badly needed new lighting.

  finally, the tall new lights are installed and they are removing the much shorter older lights.

  they left them laid on the ground for a few hours while they dug up the old bases.
