So I'm sitting here drinking peach tea with powdered ginger and peppermint oil added. Yeah maybe I over did the peppermint a bit, but I'm trying to wake myself up in a healthy way, and I'm hoping the blood circulation effects of ginger and peppermint do the trick.
I know that putting a few drops of peppermint oil on my wash cloth when I shower and some in my conditioner does the trick nicely, but it also gives a cooling feeling I'm not totally thrilled with... maybe when it gets warmer. I really do need to get some more Ginger oil, it gives a lovely warm feeling. I wonder if some powdered ginger on my wash cloth would help?
At 10:30 I'm supposed to meet the other hikers at RedTop mt. for a 5.5mile hike. I'm excited. I'm glad I got a hike in this weekend. My week isn't anywhere near as good if I don't hike during the weekend. I really do wish I could get my hands on a treadmill or some other exersize kinda thing like an elliptical or stair stepper. I mean I go and use the one over at dad's place, but not near as much as I would if I had one in my own house. I know the Goodwill on 92 has some great ones it's just a mater of organizing a truck, the money, a Saturday and of course the goodwill actually having one worth buying... which is a pretty good shot with the 92 goodwill but yeah.
Last night was quite an adventure. I take my meds get ready for bed. give th puppy his meds, and get him ready for bed. Do a few last minute chores, and then hop in the bed. Just as I'm getting comfy and the meds are hitting... my dog goes and vomits all over the bed. All I can say is thank goodness I had somewhere else to sleep because once my meds hit there is not way I can manage a chore like stripping the bed linens and remaking the bed. I've actually lost consciousness when trying to stay up on these medications, and I'd probably fall and crack my skull open. So anyway, this morning I get to strip the bed.
