Rainy and Cloudy

Here I am. Watching Friends in Bournemouth England. I would love to take advantage of the scenery, but I'm afraid I'll catch a cold if I go out there! It's been raining and cloudy and cloudy and raining for days... the only glimmer of sunshine comes from the book I'm reading "Life of Pi". I'm really into it! I did spent a couple of hours on the beach between rains one day. It didn't matter that it wasn't sunny, the view was rewarding enough. I wiggled my toes into the sand and indulged in the moment, keeping in mind that when I go back to Austin TX, this won't be so easy to attract.
I visited a little natural food shop today and found a roobuis tea that soothes my soul. I always think of my Mami when I drink roobuis since she always makes it for me when we are together. I also discovered raisins covered in a raw cacao that tickled my taste buds.
I have a nasty bite/sting on my leg that has turned into a lot of pain. It turns out I need antibiotics.... ugh. I hate taking them, but I guess it's better than risking my leg. The ease at which I got antibiotics is awesome. It continues to amaze me how easy it is to get health care help in other countries and it reminds me how poorly we were treated in the states. It makes me sad. And it doesn't seem to be getting better anytime soon. One of the reasons I am continuing with a yoga practice and keeping my health to an optimum level is for that reason exactly. I don't want to give any more money to the rubbish health care system. Preventative healthcare is my business, my practice, my passion.

Time to heal myself! Have an wondrous day!
