Tuesday and Giving Blood

I started to sleep poorly again last night because my sinus' were draining and I was drowning in my own juices. Finally I got up and took a Benedryl tablet and got to sleep. I hate to take an antihistamine because they encourage dementia . I don't need that kind of problem at my age.

Anyhow I slept until almost 6:00AM this morning and finally got up at 6:00AM, dressed, and had my oatmeal, coffee and juice. It's 15 degrees this morning and the three little cats didn't stay long to eat. Big Yellow Tom and gray mama cat and little yellow were the ones who came. I haven't seen the others for weeks.

We are to get snow this evening and tonight.   My hair appointment and game day are tomorrow and I don't know whether I can get over there in rain and snow or not. I will just have to wait and see how bad it will be. I hate to cancel my hair appointment because it is so hard to reschedule with Toni. I will just play it by ear.

I am to give blood this morning at 10:00AM so I will leave here about 9:15AM or so. It's only 7:35AM right now and I want to watch "Bull" before I leave. I recorded it last night.

More later....

I left shortly before 9:00AM and got to Coffeyville and the Red Cross site  in plenty of time. I gave my blood in record time and felt fine. I ate a sandwich and drank some water and then stayed for my 2 hour volunteer escort service and felt fine.

After I left, I went out to Walmart and bought two coffee cake mixes. When I went to scan them I was very weak feeling. I put my head down briefly and then went out to the car. There I drank a small bottle of water and began to feel better and drove home to Caney. When I got back home I went to get my mail and put away my trash container in the garage once again I felt weak.

So I had a breakfast bar and some more water...

Then four cats, two yellow ones (big Yellow Tom and the younger yellow one) and the Gray mama cat. After they ate, I brought the bowls back in.

Now I found the  "Bull" I recorded and am going to watch that right now. So more later...

I took my bath and got ready for bed and then I  watched "Bull" and then at 9:00PM, I went on to bed. I felt wiped out.
