blood donation: The Pints Keep Adding Up - 08/22/15 09:24 AM
The Pints Keep Adding Up
Before you start thinking I'm talking about something else, I'm not talking about something that makes me tipsy!  Although I guess you MIGHT get a buzz if you stand up too quickly after donating a pint of blood!  I don't get to Hoxworth Blood Center quite as often as I could (every 56 days we're eligible for whole blood donations), but still pretty regularly.  Our local blood center tracks how many times we donate, and yesterday was visit #56, so a total of 7 gallons of blood given through Hoxworth. 
And while 7 gallons might sound … (10 comments)

blood donation: I'm A Pint Low Thanks To Hoxworth Blood Center! - 02/04/15 03:40 AM
I'm A Pint Low Thanks To Hoxworth Blood Center!
More priceless than the world's finest red wines, our blood.  Can't live without it and the demand is ALWAYS there!  Have you EVER heard a blood bank air a commercial saying STOP, we've got all we need?  No. 
As long as people have accidents and disease, there will be a demand for blood and a need for those that can give to give.
I was a bit overdue to drop off a pint (whole blood every 56 days and I was well past that), so this afternoon there was a gap … (23 comments)

blood donation: AMAZING Weight Loss Program: Donate Blood! - 05/01/12 05:44 AM
AMAZING Weight Loss Program:  Donate Blood! Like many Americans I could use to lose a pound or ....well let's just say I'm not at my Annapolis weight and haven't been for a long time!  But today I lost a pound in about 10 minutes!  Now losing a pound in 10 minutes might be enough to get me a New York Times bestseller, except like most lose weight quick schemes, there's a catch! I can only do that "1 pound in 10 minutes" program once every 8 weeks, and that pound seems to come back within a few days.  The human body … (14 comments)

blood donation: Paying It Forward: Time To Do Something Gruesome! - 10/02/11 02:33 AM
Paying It Forward:  Time To Do Something Gruesome! It's October!  The Haunted Houses are open, the TV will be running more horror movies then you'd ever want to watch, so why not do something with BLOOD for our Pay It Forward this week? 
Okay, so maybe it's not really gruesome  for me to give blood last week (you know I'm a regular donor), but to some folks that needle seems to be as scary as Jason's machete or Freddy's fingers!  But wielded by the skilled hands of the Hoxworth Blood Center technicians, you're as safe as you could be!  Honestly, … (28 comments)

blood donation: Paying It Forward: Another Pint To Go! - 07/17/11 01:56 AM
Paying It Forward:  Another Pint To Go! It's taken seven months for my blood donating to get back in sequence with the blood drives at my day job!  I won't mention the name of the company specifically so I don't violate any corporate social media policies, but the first name starts with "J", there's an "&", and there's another "J".  As a whole, they take their obligations to the community pretty seriously, with heavy United Way and blood donations as just a couple of key activities. The two day blood drive this week resulted in 136 units of blood counting the … (22 comments)

blood donation: Pay It Forward: Can You Spare A Pint of The Fine Red?? - 10/23/10 02:04 AM
Fooled you, this ISN'T about wine, it's about something FAR more valuable than any vintage wine, it's a real life saving liquid, the most precious on earth!!  Blood, we've ALL got to have it! For those of you that have been following us for some time, you know that I am a regular blood donor.  It's been a lifelong habit since I was a senior in high school in a time long ago and a land far away :)  30 years of giving a little back. Yesterday was time to drop off another pint at the local blood donation center, Hoxworth … (22 comments)

blood donation: The Needle Stung Slightly - 07/14/10 02:10 AM
He leaned back as he felt the needle stick slightly as it slid under the skin of his left arm.  How long would it take this time?  It was that same old feeling he'd felt MANY times before, going back to high school, through college and following him through his professional life.  But this habit, it didn't keep him from being successful.  Most people wouldn't have known he had this habit he couldn't quit.  Every couple of months, it would call him back and he couldn't resist!

STOP!!  This isn't what you think!  Your Realtor isn't some hopped up … (9 comments)
