was talking with someone recently and making tea at the same time…
as I was squeezing the teabag, they mentioned hearing that doing this bruised the tea, which was a bad thing…
made me laugh as I’ve done it forever to get any additional flavour out of the bag before discarding it…

before the soccer game on Sunday night we had our own tailgate party with ribs, carrots, potato and Caesar salad…
as I was filling my plate two of the travelling chairs that were leaning against the back of the vehicle fell onto my foot…
it hurt, but after a couple of minutes I went and ate my dinner… then the game started… I was happy to make it to a game that actually happened, lol…
about half way through my foot started to be uncomfortable… took off my shoe and realized that it had swelled up with a huge bump along the side…
iced it when I got home but it was sore…
spent yesterday at home with it raised up on a pillow…
this morning it felt and looked fine, so I headed in to work… by the afternoon it was a bit uncomfortable…
now that I’m home it is raised up again on a pillow..
going to be a great shade of purple tomorrow I think…

woke up to the sound of thunder… and listened to it rain for a little while…
had a wonderful lazy day… spent it in pyjamas watching tv and reading…
had a couple of great phone calls, catching up with folks… and made a few meals…
didn’t even realize how warm it was until a few minutes ago when I checked the temperature to find it was still 20 out, and nearly 8 pm…
guess I should have opened the door at some point… could have sat on the deck to read, lol…
yesterday I caught my thumb in a door and broke my nail… my nails are very strong and it really pulled the nail from the bed… feels sore and I think it is rather bruised… such a little thing, but it is a reminder of how a little thing can change how you feel in a moment… also makes me remember the cold that is gone now, and the knee that is working perfectly again…
been talking with friends about just that… you can be healthy and well one moment and then something happens and you are not… needing to celebrate these days of good health… so easy to take things for granted…
been sending healing thoughts to so many who are dealing with health issues these days… hoping Spring will provide some respite for them…
the grass is greening, from just that little bit of rain…
