Tea Tuesday

Raspberry Leaf tea for me today. It was in a variety pregnancy pack a friend was nice enough to give me and was also brought up during a birthing class Matt & I went to. I've only had it a handful of times so far, but they say the third trimester is when it's mostly beneficial.

Here's some good info on it: http://www.bellybelly.com.au/pregnancy/red-raspberry-leaf-tea/

Aside from that, I've been working on some work emails, looking up forms and getting ready for the weeks ahead!

How's your Tuesday going?

Happy to post today. Cheers to Tea Tuesday!

Tea Tuesday is reminder to you too, my friends and wanderers that found your way here. Remember that all the good you do won't get done if you're not around. So, take a minute to relax with me at some point today.

Tea Tuesday

Is it Tea Tuesday again? I seem to have missed a few...

Tuesdays used to be an attempt at a relaxing day after a long day with my dad. That was awhile ago though.

Now I have work in the early afternoon and that means for a limited time in the morning to take care of the animals and give them some time out to relax before being cooped up alone (and for Miles & Daph, crated) between me leaving and whenever Matt gets home.

Matt's not feeling well again, so I've got some chamomile & mint and green & jasmine teas seeping for green tea to hopefully help him feel better ... and it's a pretty delicious combination too.

I've had crazy nausea again. I thought it was heart burn for awhile because that's a possibility in the stage of pregnancy I'm at, but when I went over the usual "symptoms", that's not it. It's just that cold throat, maybe going to puke feeling. Ugh! I was hoping this part was over, but I guess not. So, tea hasn't really been my thing lately or really much outside of trying to stomach room temperature water.

How's your Tuesday going?

Happy to post today. Cheers to Tea Tuesday!

someday when I'm pregnant Tea Tuesday

Almost three years ago to the day, I added this photo with the intention that someday, maybe, I'd be writing a Tea Tuesday post ... and pregnant.

Well, that day is here and that's just crazy, crazy to really think about ... all the time that has passed since I originally drafted this post with the photo and now all the time & changes ahead that this post truly means. We're already more than halfway through this pregnancy and I'm just a few weeks away from the beginning of the third trimester. When did that happen?!

Today I'm going to focus on the little time I have though, as always, on Tuesday. I'm going to enjoy this tea and (try) not worry about what's ahead. I'm going to focus on today...

So far today has included some yummy food, freezing some fruit for smoothies and a warm mix of green tea, jasmine tea & almond coconut tea. I also have grown so desperate with all the eggs we have from our super wonderful, sweet hens that I scrambled up some eggs with almond milk, water & oregano for the dogs & myself.

Happy to post today. Cheers to Tea Tuesday!
