Today is kind of yuck. Yesterday was, too. It's been dark and cold and rainy. Yesterday started out really well. The night before we ate at a fancy Italian restaurant to celebrate Mom getting the final word that she passed, she's now a Dr., the first in our family! I'm so proud of her, words can't even express it. Then the next morning Mamaw

I'm really happy for your Mum (or Mom, hehe ;)), that's an awesome achievement! Maybe you'll be the 2nd in the family in time? :)

I could relate very much to what you said about feeling happy for others and trying to keep the faith but not managing it always. I wish that we were closer to each other (geographically) so we could do some fun things together and get out of these kids of moods. I look forward to the mix CD though and to making one for you :).

O.o I never ceased to be amazed at how much you guys have to pay for healthcare in the US (and at how cheap clothes and shoes are, lol). That's great about the herbal tea though, what's it called? xx

Thank you, I'm so proud of her that my heart almost bursts when I think of it! Y'know, I've toyed with the idea of going for a PhD, but tbh I'm not sure I want to take on that much work when the only reason I'd want it is to be 'Dr.' instead of 'Ms.' ;p

I wish we were closer, too! I can't believe it's been so long since I visited you! You can be sure that when I get back to the UK visiting you is at the top of my list. :)

The tea is called 'PMS Tea' (clever name, no?) by a company called 'Traditional Medicinals,' and it's made with organic dandelion root. I'll be happy to include some in your upcoming package. The stuff really has worked wonders for me (and my cramps are intense!). :p
