Considering I was flat broke early yesterday, yet also considering that the poverty didn't last all day---it was a treat to order a book online last night. This one was 'The Heart of England' a Victoria magazine book that came out several years ago. I've been looking for an affordable copy for ages, and happily found one for a buck last night, with shipping only $2.95. Amazing, yes?I need something to look forward to, especially since one of our big dogs, Opal the shepherd, decided to whine for about an hour and a half, wanting to go out in the middle of the night. Well, honestly, is it reasonable to want to play outside at 4am? I think not. Needless to say, she stays out ALL day today (is usually in and out), and the kids are under orders to wear her out. Some of us need our sleep, even if it's not the dog.
Off to drink Lady Grey tea which is my new treat. Have gone off aspartame for good since it was making me feel sick to my stomach. Not good. Have to admit to being pretty addicted to Coke Zero. With stevia as a sweetener in my tea, I figure I'm being more kind to myself. Those artificial sweeteners can be sorta scary.
And my apologies if the comments aren't always working here. There are some Wordpress bugs that pop up from time to time....and had to remove the Tumblr widget since it kept acting wonky. I think when Tumblr is over limit at their site, then any links tend to wig out. Sorry to have to remove that since it was fun to see the variety of photos that would show in my sidebar. Oh well.
Take care, everyone.
