Afternoon Tea for Me

It's a gorgeous day...robin egg blue skies, with tiny fluffy clouds dotting the vastness here and there. Sunshine, warm in the cool afternoon. Just all too beautiful to miss out on, so I took my tea pot and tea cup out to the front porch and sipped the first cup of my Earl Gray while lemon shortbread cooled on the counter, ready to enjoy with a second cup of tea. The echinacea is beginning to bloom along the front of the house and its not going to be much longer until the gladiolas are bursting forth in bloom too right along with the Echinacea, which is extra tall this year. As I sat out there, admiring the day, it occurred to me just how weary I have been with this low functioning thyroid of mine. In just a few days, the medication has brought me back to life. Someone asked if I had been depressed and I thought, no, never depressed, but I sure did have low motivation/ambition which for me, just about put a halt to many of the things I once enjoyed. At my doctors suggestion, I will be taking some Iodoral too which will give my adrenals a real boost. I tried for over a year to treat my thyroid issue with herbs and it just never did work. My hope is that this medication I am on will not be a life long thing. Hoping the Iodoral will help get things working again the natural way.
This week I bought some fabric to make a baby quilt just to be sewing again and will start on the new curtains for the living room. Feels good to be full of energy once again.
