Good morning, Fizzio. Sorry to hear your not feeling better yet. I have a recipie for russian tea from Prevention Magazine that seems to help when I get a cold/cough. I'll see if I can find a link. BRB.

Okay, Fizzio, I copied the recipie - here it is:

Nancy's Russian Tea

1 1/4 c sugar

3/4 c instant black tea

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1 c Tang mix

1 tsp ground cloves

1 packet (2 qt) lemonade mix

Combine the ingredients, and mix thoroughly. Store in an airtight container. Shake well before using. Add 3 to 4 teaspoons per cup of hot water. Drink 4 to 6 cups a day, as needed.

It's from Prevention magazine, and I've found it really helps.

Hugs

Good Morning, Fizzio, Morning Tee, Fizzio, this is a order, take your butt to bed and stay there..you are not to open the room, play on the computer, or do housework till you are 100% better, ok?

Tee? Russian Tea? does that include a lot of Russian Vodka?

I woke up late this AM, guess I forgot to set the alarm, or the clock I have ain't working, good thing I found a replacement a couple of weeks back for 2.50..lol, cute little bitty alarm clock.. One more day and I am off.. looking forward to two days off, all I got planned at this moment is nothing..do have our home teacher from the Church coming over on Tuesday evening, I don't mind, as I enjoy his visits. Weds, Glenn is planning on going out to the Mothers and Brothers place doing some work around there that they need done and don't know how to do.. save them a bit of money.

It's really sad when you look forward to your days off as a get out of jail card.. have to sit down this evening and figure out what has to be paid, what can be paid and who has to wait..

So good morning to all.

Good Morning, Carmen!

Just one more day. I did do nothing all day yesterday, and it felt great, LOL. (Sorry, no vodka in the tea - just good for you stuff).

No vodka? that stinks.. how are we to feel better if there is nothing good in there to feel better about?

Yup, just one more day and I will be off for two days, and then I believe I start a new schedule again, back to having the weekends off.. I do wish he would figure out what the hell he is going to do here, I've started putting in applications on line for new positions at some of the other places around, I would really like to stay in customer service, but will do what I have to do to get a stable schedule.. this bouncing is killing me, not to mention the jerks I have for management.

So you did nothing yesterday? what's on your agenda for today? more nothing? sounds like a plan to me..

Carmen and Tee,

Thanks so much for your advice! I'll do anything at present. Carmen - hard work to prioritise. We have to decide how much therapy our kids can have and the bills are huge. I will be able to increase my hours in September, but this is a double edged sword as keeping my bipolar in check depends on not too much stress.

that does sound like a tough battle, can you get any help on the therapy? I don't know what kinda government support system you have down there, I know for the most part ours here in the States suck..

Well, y'all as much as I hate the idea, guess I had better dress and run, Glenn's watch is set for 7AM and is presently beeping..lol, remind me tonight to find a hammer and kill that thing..

Have a wonderful day, I know now what I am going to do bright and early tomorrow morning, some serious porch time, just had to run out there for a moment, and man is it nice, quiet, cool, the birds chirping..that will do the soul some good..

See you later..

Carmen,

Today I have to try to figure out how to get my pics from my camera on to my computer. Then, I have to get a yoga mat and some exercise clothes. My yoga class starts tomorrow (I'm excited!!!!!). I also may hit the grocery store (although I still have enough food left from the graduation party to last for weeks) and do some wash before people run out of clothes.
