7. I'm winding down now
I was a good boy today. I got up at 8am (on a saturday, yay) and did all my chanting in the morning, as well as walking into town to go to the health food shop. Then in the afternoon I cleaned the kitchen and the bathroom and vacuumed all the other rooms, then made dinner. Later on I'm going to make a vegetable mix to go in some samosas tomorrow. Phew!

:hug: Good to see you. :loveya:

15. So what kind of tea is it?
I just had some iced green tea w/ lemon with my lunch. :9

I'm glad you're doing housework. I wish I felt motivated to do that. :P

Redbush. Whatever you want to call it - no-one seems able to agree on its name. But I like it. :D
