MOISTURE , MOISTURE, MOISTURE!

We woke up this morning to rain and wind like you can't believe!! It was blowing sideways and it was making so much noise on the house, it was unbelievable! We got up and went to the gym. Tony dropped me off close to the door so I wouldn't get too wet. We did our Monday workout, which includes walking, weights and the elliptical. I went to do the elliptical after my w

2 mile walk but they were all busy so I went to the weight room. I got those done and then went to the elliptical. Tony was there talking to Cindy and Heidi (his cousins) so we had a 45 minute visit. Heidi was telling me all about her cancer treatments. She has one left. We are praying it will be the last and she will stay in remission. After they left, I did my 33 minutes on the elliptical and Tony and I met at the lockers at the same time.

We went to WINCO right after leaving the gym. I needed to get oranges, lemons and ginger root to make my Ginger shot. I took the last swig this morning. We also got some rice puddings (I'm hooked) and some garden seeds. I'm going to start growing some in the toilet paper rolls I've been saving. I hope to have my garden plants ready to go by spring. Fingers crossed. 

We got home and I started getting my fruits and ginger juiced. 

I pureed them in my NINJA . Ginger 1st, oranges and lemons. Then I put it all through a sieve and strained the juice out. I mix in the water, Turmeric, honey, cayenne pepper and black pepper.

I took all the pulp from all the fruit & ginger and put it in a white towel. I wrung it out  and was able to get more juice out of it.  I have a nice 1/2 gallon now which will last me a couple of weeks because I only drink a small glass daily. 

Mary came over at 4 o'clock to pick up the 12 cards I made for her. Glad to have her as a client even if she is a little demanding. We ate a baked sweet potato for dinner and are now watching TV. We had an earthquake today. It was up near Smiths Ferry in the Cascade area. It happened around 10am this morning. I guess it was felt here but we didn't feel it. We were busy walking. It was snowing for a while this morning but it's back to wind and rain. We are thankful for the moisture. It will be good for us this summer!
