Fat Tuesday!!!

There's something to be said for partying in excess before lent, even if you're not Catholic. Of course I have never really celebrated Fat Tuesday or given up anything for lent but I can see the appeal. It's kind of like pigging out on all your favorite foods right before a diet.

I’m feeling better today. Perhaps it was the two huge Iowa steaks Tim grilled for dinner. There is something to be said for steak and potatoes. Or it could be the new mixture of herbs I got on Monday. They are bitter! She warned me, but Blech! It was hard getting them down, but I felt better today, so who knows. I'm still getting acupuncture treatments twice a week, and thanks to my friend Angie, I've started counting the needles when I go in for treatments. So far the most has been 15 at one time. Although the other day, I made the mistake of saying I had some drainage problems with my nose and the next thing I knew I had a needle stuck between my eyes, one at my hairline, and one at the top of my head! It seemed to work, although it hurt to smile when they were in! It was pretty funny.
