Thanks for the kind words . . . and about donating blood . . . trust me it's not as bad as you might think . . . just keep thinking about how your blood donation could help save a teen-ager involved in a bad car accident . . . a grandfather with cancer . . . a premie-baby . . . and if that doesn't work for you, just keep thinking about those freshly-baked oatmeal-cranraisin cookies!
