My favorite tea EVER!
 
Colton was talking with Keeley last night telling her his symptoms, she then talked to a doctor that she works with and he said it is either phenomena or influenza but either way he needed to get in right away.  So EO drove Colton up to the urgent care and they ran some test and said, it was influenza and sent him home with some prescriptions.  Lauren has different symptoms, her's is more like a mild case of mononucleosis.  No you don't have to be kissing someone to get it.  *rolls eyes*. She sleeps all night and takes four hour naps in the day... she is achy and sore and very tired.  As for Steph, she is trying to stay away from everyone as she doesn't want to get sick.  EO is doing ok, but he is afraid he is going to bring the bugs to someone else.  However, mom has a doc apt she has to go to today, so he has to go out anyways.  

As for me, well I did my spiritual workout this morning, but that is it.  Physically my body is NOT HAPPY today.  I was up most of the day yesterday, there was just too much going on in the house, and I knew it was going to take a tole on me for the next couple days.

EO bought us a couple of new pillows.. you know what bugs me... (well lots of things) but... when you find products you just love, and many stores provide, and they are available for a number of years, then in time you can't find them anymore.  Like my notebook and my current pillow (not the new one).  My pillow I bought is for "side sleeping".  I have had it for awhile and LOVE it, but it has been awhile, and now, EO goes to buy us 2 new side sleeping pillows, and he can't find anywhere that they even say "side sleeping" they are all just uniform.  Maybe if he went to some other stores, but it is just so annoying.  The pillow he bought is ok, but it just isn't the same.  :(   And for many years, I have bought a 3 subject notebook, that is 7"x9", it is smaller than standard paper.  It is perfect, not too big like standard paper, and not too small. Plus I use it for the whole year.  One section is for the D.C., one section is for the C.A and S.A.D and one section is for the C.O visit, Special talk and various other talks throughout the year.  Some years I have bought a few of them so I have then for a couple years.  Well it has been harder and harder to find them.  Now, I don't know if I will be able to find them at all.  I love them that size, because I then keep them all together *deep sigh*.    Ok, I ranted.      

Maybe I should go make myself  a cup a tea, it is just so de-lish!  So I had Steph try a cup of the Bengal Spice and she loved it!  more like LLLLLOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEDDDDDDD it.  She loves drinks that are big on flavor.  She put almond milk in hers.. and it is recommended to add milk, but it is so good without, i hadn't tried it..... so I had a sip of hers and YUMMMMMMMMMMM.  I was going to do that this morning, but I forgot to leave room for milk, so I will drink mine down to half and then add some almond milk to it.  I was drinking peppermint tea, almost every day, as it is easy on my stomach.  Now the peppermint tea is so plain, almost like drinking water.  Oh, and the Bengal doesn't upset my stomach at all, so win win!

Steph had to open the store today, so she will be off work around 1 or 2.  She hasn't had to open the store very many times, but she says it is easier than closing.

I should go veg now, as I am just so achy. At least breathing doesn't hurt today... win win... well sort of.
