Got out with oldest daughter today to run errands. We grabbed some tacos for lunch and then stopped at the drugstore, then went to the Mediterranean market near our home for tea. I've gotten their Darjeeling twice now, but got Kalami Assam today. Don't I sound smart?!! Already drank a cup, steeping it a much shorter time than the 8 minutes they recommend, and it was wonderful. I tend to like my tea pretty mild anyway, so 2-3 minutes is tops for my likes.
And Daisy the pug who has to have bladder stone surgery soon (will call vet next week ::shiver::) had a cough again this morning, but it's passed. Her throat sort of seizes up when it's cold (which it is now after being in the 60s yesterday), and she hacks and hacks. Right now she's in my lap, all good and cozy and is much better. Tiring to have to be so careful with her, but until her surgery, her immune system is, pretty much, toast.
And thankful to have Gary home for the weekend. We cherish weekends much, much more with him being at FedEx overnight during the week. He's at his shop now, finishing up a couple of repair jobs----so thankful for the phone ringing for that work. He is, after all, a woodworker and not a package handler in real life. FedEx is just a stopping off point until our ship comes in again. Taking awhile, isn't it?
Well, not much else going on.
Three
four kids have funny throats and sniffly noses, so stayed in from church tonight. Will plan on being Anglican tomorrow. Not sure if I'll be alone or not, but Gary's made noises about going with me some time. He was raised Baptist/Reformed Presbyterian (oddly so different from one another in my mind), so is a bit cautious. That's okay. We all get churched in one way or another.
Take care, sweets.
