  1. What a fun one! I was surprised by a few of them! love it!
    I always want to take more classes as well :0 Maybe someday when our kids are older. I would love to sign up for something random - like painting or pottery.

  2. I have the same problem with donating blood! I never connected the blood pressure issue, I always just thought it was me being weak :-P, but I have pretty low blood pressure and giving blood is not fun!

  3. I can't give blood either, although I've never tried, I know my limits! Even giving the 5 vials of blood for pregnancy testing I was getting faint and hot flashes. It's horrible.
