Project 365 – a photo a day: drinking charcoal and fighting the struggle…

Yup, that’s charcoal. In a drink. I drank that today. Charcoal is supposed to help your stomach deal with toxins, and allegedly is helpful after a stomach bug. I figured it couldn’t hurt to try it. It didn’t taste like BBQ fuel.

This stomach bug and this winter? Meh, I am over it. The husband is now poorly, we have had to juggle plans, work, life, childcare etc, and it’s has been, pardon the pun, a crap week (literally, sorry for the tmi) and I am tired. It’s hard for us, because we currently don’t have family locally that could help, and most of the time I am ok with that, but I do have the odd moment, where I wish we lived closer to them, or they were closer to us.

But, live goes on. The stomach bug will go, and we will soldier on as normal. The grass is always greener, isn’t it?

The charcoal shot, however, doesn’t seem to have done anything magic, yet…
