Just Thoughts

I have been sober for about six weeks. No tea, coffee or soda. I mostly miss my morning green tea & my occasionally cold sprite.

I went to donate blood after they have given some to our sick maid. I have iron deficiency. WTH, I told the nurse I just had my breakfast. I hate having breakfast!!! She did the test again, negative can’t donate blood. So off to Googling & I found what things I need to eat or stay away from to increase the iron level in my blood. “Liver is one concentrated source of iron“, I drew the line here, HELL NO. After two weeks of eating vegi’s & avoiding the above, still I can’t donate blood.

Here I am after six weeks, yearning for a cold sprite. I want to look at the sunset or the sunrise, which ever the hell is available at the time, and drink the cold crystal clear shimmering full of gases liquid, let it tingle my tongue all the way down to my ever so welcoming stomach. Straight out of the can or in a beautiful cup topped with a slice of lemon. To savour the taste I’ll drink it alone, no food nothing just me and my sprite. I guess fasting didn’t help cramp in these cravings. I want to hold my hot cup of green tea in a slightly cold room snuggling on the sofa to drink it. Till that moment comes, I’ll stick to my boycott in hopes of a high level of iron in my blood
