But, it's not bad coffee. It just isn't my wonderful coffee.

Here ya go taxy, a wallpaper border for your kitchen:
First day off after a long rotation and a double shift last night. Ugh. I'm on coffee #2 and I'm watching the clouds blow away and the sun start to shine. Going to be a lovely day today.
Having an iced coffee after dinner. Still pretty freaking hot here.
Kitties are well. They swarmed me when I came in (as usual) and tried to tell me they were starved and ill treated. I got a little snuggle time when I sat down but got ditched pretty quickly when the birds started arriving at the feeder outside. Those two little beasties sat and chirruped at the birds for a long time. Cute.
About vitamin D Addie, up here in the north we are all severely deficient most of the time. I've been taking 2000-4000 iu every day for nearly a year now and you know what? Not one single virus. Not a cold, flu, not an episode of SAD, nothing. Working where I do, that is darned miraculous as the kids bring through myriad virus strains daily! My coworkers were all sick as dogs around Christmas with a nasty flu bug. One poor guy was off for six weeks til his lungs were better.
I did some reading about it, and so far, they can't seem to find a toxic level of vitamin D. There is some speculation that the daily recommended dose is just enough to keep us from being sick all the time and that we actually could use a lot more. Since its a water soluble vitamin, your body just flushes any unused portions out. Cool beans.
Anyway, enough blather from me. Just thought I'd share my experiences with you.
i agree wholeheartedly with your vitamin D recommendation, alix. i've been from a to z with vitamin supplements over the years. all i take anymore, is a multiple vitamin and D-2000iu daily. i no longer take vitamiins A, E, Bs, calcium, etc, etc,.... the benefits of vitamin D are so huge and vast for someone like me, who doesn't get enough natural sunlight, that it merits a permanent place on my bedside stand.
Even though vitamin C is water soluble, megadoses can cause problems:Yikes! I must have mixed up my readings about Vitamin D and C. Good catch lady. I'm off to an appointment, but I'll see if I can find that article about not finding a toxic level.
