Well, it is. White flour, white sugar, caffeine, diet coke is the only thing that will kill a cockroach, all things that make depression and anxiety worse, and back up the system. i wonder how long they just sit in the cells?
Ate something yesterday, plus copious amounts of diet coke and some 1/2 caf coffee -- and for the first time in months white flour in the form of burrito -- blech -- I was sooo sick last night.
But, had fun learning to play cribbage with sons. This is a verbally abusive game! Plus it requires math skills. Looking at cards and adding really quickly -- nope, nope, nope -- Hard levels of Soduko are easier. However...
Ate very little today and studied more herbalism lore. Calming the Storm Tea was from Nuwati Herbals -- yarrow, red clover, ginger alfalfa... works. Read Echinacea is really no good for a cold, but better for topical use, infection from oral surgery, kidney infection, pelvic inflammatory disease. And a Copperhead bite apparently. Those little pills you buy aren't enough to do diddly. Kind of figured.
1 cup cut and sifted Echinacea augustifolia (I love that lst part though I am clueless as to what it refers so far)
1 1/2 quart hot water, let steep for 40 minutes, strain and drink a quart over the next two hours.
I found out for herbs to work you have to use a lot and keep them continuously in your body. They take longer, but work with the whole body versus the reductionist view of one pill for one precise ailment -- which is impossible. One illness involves many components.
No big humour today. Stargate Atlantis time.
