Productivity

Teresa and I decided to be productive one morning. We scoped out the Florida Blood Center and donated. The center was very nice and welcoming and overall I had a good donation. Sometimes I’m low in iron, other times, I get light headed while donating, but neither of those occurred this time.

We also received a “Local Heros” blood donor t-shirt. We have started a pile of t-shirts to tye-dye. In April, we are going to have one big roomie tye-dye party! I’m pretty excited about that! Last week, at property damages, I found two white shirts with 2010 Disney stuff on it and couldn’t find anything wrong with them. They are also in the tye-dye t-shirt pile. I’m researching mickey tye-dye patterns too so we can attempt that!

After donating blood, we found a Hair Masters to get our hair trimmed at. It is always interesting to travel outside of the “Disney Bubble.” At work and around the apartment, we are surrounded by cast members, so everyone you meet is pretty nice. But when we venture out, you never know what you will encounter. However, giving blood and getting my hair trimmed, I came across extremely nice people. I felt like I was still in the Disney Bubble.

Last Sunday I found a church nearby to attend. Fellowship Orlando is nondenominational and contemporary. I went by myself, which I surprised myself because normally that would be out of my comfort zone. I really enjoyed the church. I haven’t decided if I will go back, or try another, or what.

Monday was our apartment inspection. Of course, we passed with flying colors. We are pretty clean people so it wasn’t extremely difficult to tidy up the place for inspection. We should have gotten the “White Glove” Award. Basically, the guy told us we didn’t get it cause our trash wasn’t empty and some beds weren’t made. Well, one, we live here and the trash was empty until we all woke up and made breakfast and what not, but the trash was not over flowing out of control. And, second, the beds that were not made were people that just woke up when they knocked on the door to do the inspection. It was all a tad humorous to me, but hey, we got M&M Cookies out of the deal.

Monday night, Erin, Teresa, Betsy, and I participated in a Cast Quest Interactive Gaming Competition at Disney Quest in Downtown Disney. It was a CP Event that people signed up teams for. While we did not win anything, it was a fun evening running around Disney Quest for free.

My family will be here in about a week. I’m really excited to spend time with them. Plus, I’m ready to enjoy the parks. I have been to all four parks once with the exception of Magic Kingdom. With work, we are scheduled two days off a week, but my classes are on those days. Plus, I’m trying to keep up with online classes and my blog. It’s hard to venture out into the parks and enjoy them when I’m always catching stuff up. It will be a very nice week with them here. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the days I requested off for while they are here, so I’m in the process of giving those shifts away.

Also, skydiving is rescheduled for Friday March 19 with Teresa and Nick!!!
