Denied

I had my second plasma appointment today. I woke up so dizzy. I had my early exercise class and about fainted in class. It was weird. I almost fainted in class after I gave blood too. Anyway, I had my  appointment, so I wanted to go. They said I couldn't give today. I had a bruise from my last appointment and they didn't like how I was dizzy. I am going to try again tomorrow though.
I'm not sure what this video is about, but I found it on Jorja's phone.
She sure does such a good job of making other people feel important.
Jorja took the bus home with Madison. The plan was to go with Madison and her dad to get her drivers permit. Except Madison's dad forgot. They spent their time doing homework though. Jorja and Madison went to a Chick-Fil-A service project today. They met at the Southtown Chick-Fil-A. Jorja knew they were going to a retirement home to have dinner, that is all she knew. Turns out only three people from Jorja's store came. Also turns out the place was in Salt Lake City. Jorja ended up driving. On the freeway. In traffic. In the rain. In the dark. Yikes! Luckily there were no problems. There were three girls from the Draper store and some people from Southtown. Chick-Fil-A provided the dinner. This place is for older people who are going through cancer. Jorja didn't come home for a long time and I was worried. Turns out that she stayed with Madison and the other girl and just talked to these guys for hours. The Southtown people left right after dinner. Jorja loved it. We were in bed when she came home. She sat on our bed and talked to us about it for a long time. That girl has a heart of gold. She was so happy and we were so proud of her. I have never met anyone that loves so intensely and completely as Jorja. She loves everybody. I wish I could be more like her.

Now for some random pictures:
I finished Grace's stocking today!
 Jorja and I have a streak of 100 on Snapchat
 She has sent me fun pictures like this for 100 days.
Gosh I love her so.

Plasma

My brother Matt donates plasma twice a week. He talked me into doing it today. Because it was my first time it took forever! Matt came and went while I was still there. I only got to see him as he was walking out. Once I donate one more time, Matt will get $50 though. School was almost out when I finished, so I went to the Village Baker and ordered Jorja and I our favorite cream cheese sandwiches. These remind me of sandwiches Brooke introduced me to when I was visiting her up in Coeur d'Alene before she was married. That sandwich shop is long gone now though.

Anyway, I picked up Jorja after school and was able to get home before Stockton called. I was so worried he was going to call while I was out. I talked to him for an hour and a half. It was awesome! This new policy is THE BEST! He talked to me while his companion was playing basketball, while they were driving, and while he was finishing up laundry. It is so nice to hear his voice. I love him!

Jorja stayed at work late. The manager talked to her for awhile after asking her if she would like to become a shift leader. I'm not sure what that means, but Jorja was pretty excited they would even be talking to her about it. Chick-Fil-A has changed some policies recently. Like how raises are determined. Now they have a scale on your performance that is looked at. It used to be just who the managers liked best. The new policy will work out much better for Jorja.
