I was successful in pulling out the rest of my shorty shorts, besides the fact they dont fit, I dont ever see myself fitting into them again, I really dont think I will be wearing my shorts so short again.   So, sigh, there goes an era.  I suppose this is part of the problem - just accepting the "now."

@aprilskies

Excellent way of looking at it.  I guess I accepted the "now" when I pulled all the short skirts out of the closet and donated them.  Along with the shorts.

@just bee, well, of course, withdrawal and sale, um, YES!! That is a "need" buy.

Interesting about the dragon tea, @just bee, I have only had this once and am reserving comment until I give it a fair try. I wasnt thrilled with my first cup but have learned to really try something out before claiming I dont like it. I will give it a try at bedtime and see if I see any benefits at least.

Oh no, another tea junkie in the making. 

You are making me want a cup of the cinnamon spice and I dont have any withe me.

Well, I took advantage of their current sale and special offers and I think I came out all right.  I've been putting a real dent in the collection and will even donate a few empty tins.

The Dragon Pearl Jasmine gets points for fragrance.  It's probably the best jasmine I've had.  It's relaxing.

Sometimes they grow on you.  Look at my sister and the Ginger Liquorice.

@just bee, you know what is funny, I donated my short skirts and most of my shorty shorts a couple of years ago, but I have held on to the last two thinking, ah, they are not that short.  But, yes, yes, they are. LOL. So, the last of them are now in the donation pile.

@just bee, I didnt mean the dragon tea, altho, I do have to try this one again before I can comment. I meant the ginger licorice.  I have to give this one another whirl soon to see if there are any benefits since your sister experienced some.  It almost makes sense that there would be with the ginger and licorice root.

All I know is I have to start making a dent in my teas. I have a slew of them now.  I probably should start having a cup of tea at night. Right now I started working on my cocoa collection. I have been making a cup for the last few nights.  Yes, I have ton of cocoa too.

@aprilskies

Hmmm.  How do we get you to drink more tea?  I tend to drink a lot of it when I wake up.  That's what starts my day.

Are you still drinking coffee?

I’ve been trying to switch to tea from coffee in the morning.  So far all I’ve managed to do is have a half cup of tea, then a full cup (or two) of coffee because the tea doesn’t quite satisfy that caffeine addiction.  Problem is, I’m drinking tea to cut down on the caffeine.

Part of my HEP New Year’s Resolution is to cut out the coffee completely—and stick to it!  Tea is easier for me to drink when the weather is warm.  This time of year something about that coffee beckons me!☕️

@geezerette

I can't even remember when I gave up coffee and switched to tea, but I do know I haven't regretted it.

I guess if you don't have coffee in the house, you'll have to drink the tea!

@stillbelleandme

I definitely responded and I'm trying to figure out what you're seeing.  If you're on the ComPact thread you should be able to see what you posted and what I posted back.

If you find this post, you can scroll down through the other posts and find your other two and my response.

I can start a whole new thread: @Paging @belleandme.  Would that work?
