Still ill, both of us. Cough and congestion are a tiny bit less, but just as tiring and just as good at wringing a person out.

Finally opened the box from Om Shanti last night -- everything smells lovely and I'm looking forward to using the salts and trying out the lip balm. I'm amused by the balm "Scarborough Fair", as I invented a chicken dish by that name years ago (has more than just the herbs of the song in it). Opened the seed order from Richter's as well because L noticed a cut in the side of the box. Spent quite a while sorting as much of the Evening Primrose seeds out of the loose Flax seeds last night as sanely possible. Fortunately they are rather different in size. This helped some.
Order from Alchemy Works came in today. Trying out the Kyphi incenses and oil. Should be fun!

Courtesy, especially under pressure, is a gift; one that should be cultivated. And in my book, courtesy applies to everyone, regardless of rank (I don't always succeed, but I try real hard).

Always be gracious. If you are right, you can afford to be. If you are wrong, you can't afford not to be.
