Day 5: NO spending day. It was a quiet Monday. Day 6: I spent approx $6.00 to fill a prescription. I should probably update you on another goal I had for this year. I have been trying to make it to the gym twice a week since January. It doesn't seem like a big goal but some weeks it is tough. Truthfully I haven't made it even once in the last two weeks but I got back on track today with a bootcamp class at the YMCA I go to. Although I am not noticing much difference in my weight or how I look I have noticed a substantial difference in how I feel......GREAT! I am also hoping it will translate into an improved softball season. I may never be in the shape I was at 20 again but I can certainly try and be closer than I am now. Today was also lunch date day.....my coworker brought pulled pork sandwiches with carrot stick and cherry tomatoes. She also made chocolate peanut butter squares....ummm delicious. I will have to get that ...
Over the years I have become a fan of tea. My favourites are non-caffeine. Green Teas, herbal teas and rooibus. Almost any loose leaf tea will do. I once got chamomile tea from a friends parents and it was really just a whole baggie of chamomile flowers.....it was from a place in Sarnia, Ontario but I am not sure exactly where. It just seems so much fresher when you can recognize it by sight.... In June while on vacation I found a tea store selling hand tied leaves. What a fantastic aroma of jasmine. It is the Madame Butterfly tea by Capital Teas (www.capitalteas.com). It was very expensive and I just couldn't afford it but they certainly had lots of great teas. My most recent vacation in Florida found me in the Spice and Tea Exchange (www.spiceandtea.com) where I purchased a small bag of loose leaf hazelnut cookie tea. Ceylon black base so not my usual herbal but wonderful smell and tastes very rich. An enjoyable tea....
