No donation for you!

OK, I'm a really sad girl today.  I went with Nina for our blood donation/breakfast morning and found out that my hemoglobin is too low.  They wouldn't let me donate!  I cried like a baby - guess those hormones are still out of whack.  The nurse working with me told me that stress, lack of sleep and menstruation can cause iron levels to really get low.  Uh, how about a yes to all three?  So I sat with Nina while she gave blood and just cried.  I'm headed to the store this afternoon to get some spinach and an iron supplement.  Maybe with some good sleep and good nutrition, I can donate later in the week...
