l hope everything is going very fine wherever you are.
Today there is no rain. The sun is shining very pleasantly and it's a little bit warmer here.
It's another weekend whereby it's shaping up so well in this very juncture.
In the nearby trading centre, there is a concert whereby the people have been asked to show up to donate blood.
The relevant authorities had it that there is shortage of blood in the government blood banks and they are really in need of blood.
I have however made up my mind to go and donate out the blood. l have heard that they give a loaf of bread and half a litre soda as the appreciation.
Have you ever donated blood before?
Good weekend!

@Treborika I think I would. I would like to think I would. Only thing is, I get quite dizzy easily when I have me blood taken. Every single time I need a blood test, I feel strange. So it's a tough one.

I used to donate blood as soon as I could. The first time, I was in high school. The man next door needed blood and had to find replacements for what he used. Our family went to donate. I have done it many times ever since.
To donate, they test your blood for hemoglobin. I started failing that test a few years ago. My doctor told me not to donate anymore. He said I needed all my blood for myself. I can't donate now. I hope my blood helped to save lives.
