Jan. 2nd, 2016 02:30 pmI tried Zhena’s Gypsy Tea’s ginger peach black tea today. I apparently hadn’t tried it before. I thought I had, but there were four teabags in the tin. I think I might like it better with a shorter steeping time. I went with three minutes this time, and while it wasn’t exactly bitter, it wasn’t not bitter either. It did not blend well with the stevia I added. I don’t know if I’d like it better with honey. Possibly.
My foot is hurting off and on now instead of constantly with spikes when I walk. I’m applying heat right now, and that actually feels good. Ice was really bad in terms of making the pain worse. The foot is not sore when I press on it and/or massage it. I can’t find any sensitive spots that way. It’s just when I walk and when I curl my toes under to stretch my foot.
I tried Tylenol for the foot pain yesterday and didn’t notice any difference at all. I may try naproxen, but I’m not sure. I don’t really expect that to do anything, either, and I’m very wary of it after the trouble I had with it during radiation.
Cordelia has pointed out that I actually saw my step-father for about an hour this summer when he and I and my mother went to lunch at Zoup. I had forgotten about that, probably because it was so very, very brief. Cordelia doesn’t see why she should be enthusiastic about spending time with my mother. Hopefully, she will be polite and at least try to enjoy herself.
