Hoping for some relief from my cold. Image; Su Leslie 2018My “mindful spending” experiment has been thrown a curve-ball (or perhaps a life-line) in the form of a cold.
I’m feeling too sick to go anywhere and am self-medicating with lots of honey and lemon drinks.

Hope you feel better soon, Su!

Thanks Deb. This cold is so out of season and unexpected; it’s really blind-sided me. I do tend to recover pretty quickly though, and luckily am able to take it easy while it runs its course.

I’m sorry to hear that. Hope your natural remedies will soon work their wonders. Another thing that seems to help me is vaporising a few drops of Benzoin.

I’m deathly with that sort of thing now too. Best wishes for a speedy recovery–tea and good manuka honey helps.

I missed the “mindful spending” bit, but I’m sorry to read you’re under the weather. I hope the natural medicines help. I’ve read lots of good things about Manuka honey. We can buy it here, but it’s a bit expensive. I haven’t tried it yet.

Feel better. Adding little broken pieces of ginger candy to the tea can be great too 🤗

Thanks. Ginger is great isn’t it. I prefer the fresh root, and make tea with it. Sugar doesn’t agree with me these days unfortunately— I used to love candied ginger.

Manuka honey is VERY expensive here, so I use the cheap stuff. Colds suck, so I hope yours disappears very quickly.

It’s become incredibly e pensive here too because of the worldwide demand. Idiot “entrepreneurs” are wrecking productive land to create mono cultures of Manuka to make honey without any understanding of its place in ecosystems. Sigh.

It’s the same old, same old – money ruling the world. It’s as if people can’t be happy with making a small profit, they have to keep on milking the ‘cash cow’ until it is all gone. I’m becoming more and more infuriated with the rich b****ards

Couldn’t agree more. There is so much evidence that after reaching a certain threshold of wealth (not all that much from memory) more money doesn’t actually make people happy. So you have to wonder.
