We finally had some real snow this weekend. That is the good news, the bad news was that the frigid temps kept all of us home. My daughter had soccer practice, and while she did that, I donated blood. So it was a productive weekend. The bloodmobile has been coming around every couple of weeks, and it is local, so it is easy for me to donate. It was nice to see a lot of younger people there giving, also. Donating is the least I can do, since giving financially is just not an option. Of course, it drives my boyfriend nuts. He can't understand why I would just give my blood away. He thinks I should be paid for it. And when I try to explain to him that my blood could be helping someone, his attitude is so apathetic. ' "Since you don't know these people, why are you helping them?" ' Sadly for him, my answer that it is just a nice thing to do, is beyond his capabilities to understand.
Saturday was a rough day for him. He decided that he was going to quit his job. We are going nowhere fast, so he thinks quitting his job would be the best idea. And when I asked him if I should quit my job too, he said whatever I think is best. Obviously, taking care of our responsibilities and our children was not one of his concerns. And with that, he went to bed by 5pm. Sunday, he woke up, with a sunnier disposition, and all was good at our house. And we all, once again, survived another weekend.
