Teaholic not quite anonymous

...of muscle relaxant/anti-inflammatory. Let's just hope as the blog goes on you can continue to read my writing. :)

About noon today I started to notice that my right knee was tender. So, I babied it a bit, but at about 1 I finally decided to take a aleeve. Well, that did absolutely no good and as the afternoon went on it didn't get worse but it didn't get better either. But as I babied it I noticed that my sciatic nerve was also a bit tender (not pulled like when I was pregnant--thank God, that was miserable). So, as soon as Maddy went to bed I took a Naproxin and now I'm in bed waiting for it to kick in. I know I'll be asleep instantly!

The day went pretty well overall. I went through the fridge and freezer this morning and cleaned it out while making a grocery list. I planned meals for the week. Then I went through my gladware containers and matched lids to the containers. After that I finally cleaned up our pots/pans cabinet. It was a disaster and I was tired of being called my Mother. Now, don't get me wrong, my mom is great and all, but well, she's not the most organized when she puts things away in our cabinets. So Matt's been teasing me about that, so I finally organized it.

Then Maddy and I went to the post office to mail the box. It was SO HEAVY. It was 22 lbs. I was so afraid of how much that would cost. Well, turns out that it was only $15! Yeah! However, just getting it into the post office was an ordeal, let me tell ya. I had to get out Maddy's umbrella stroller and jam the package in it and then push it into the office while Maddy held my hand. Then of course, she wants to run all over the place which scares the living daylights out of me. I want to keep a HAND on my daughter and the second I let go for an instant she's wanting to go explore. SHEESH. But it went out and should take about 2 weeks to get there.

After the post office we went grocery shopping for the first time in a week. Even last weekend WE didn't go grocery shopping! Matt's parents went for us and what they bought lasted us all week. Again, it's one thing that they take care of Maddy for us that we can get away and it's HUGE that they do that. And we really appreciate it. It's just seriously over the top that they go shopping for us, do laundry and even make us dinner when we get home. WOW.. We don't expect that and they definitely don't have to do it.

But yes, Maddy had fun going grocery shopping except she's now to the stage when she sees food she likes she wants me to buy it, so I kind of need to run quickly down some aisles now. I can't believe how fast she's growing up! She'll almost be two soon!

Speaking of, I am in the process of getting my pictures together that I want printed of Maddy so expect some wallets in the mail in the next month or so, but that will need to wait for tomorrow. Because, my eyes are getting heavy and I think it's time to hit the sack.

Thank goodness I've been drinking herbal tea all day today with the rainy weather and not caffeinated.

Speaking of tea, I mixed together my Ahmad's afternoon tea and my Gloria Jean's Gunpowder green tea. I liked both but I liked the mix of caffeine. This way I also get the flavor of the black tea mixed with the Jasmine of the green tea. It's a great mix!

Tea of the day: Green/black tea mix, white peach tea, roobios tropical tea, foxtrot tea
WO of the day: Nada, I've got to get this knee back into shape first!
