Tea Time

Look at what my pen pal from the UK sent me!!!😱😱😱 I could not, and I still can't, believe it.  I almost started to cry. Two boxes of tea (but the Cumbrian Tea is two boxes by itself, so it's more like three boxes!), wool yarn, fabric with black crows (or Ravens?) on it, a beer coaster, all kind of little papers about the UK, and a geocaching "swag". I have not geocached, ever. But I have been on the website for four years. I just have never done it. I didn't really know how/what you're supposed to do. (I've been watching videos about it, though.) I am blown away by this package. 
The cats were so excited, too. 😻  It cost 19 pounds to send the whole package, here. I tried to send her four tea bags, in a manilla envelope, earlier;  and they wanted to charge me $22!!! I HATE the post office here. I said, "Do you know how many BOXES of tea I could buy, for $22??" Ugh...  Anyway, I love this package! She has been my pen pal for ten years and she is such a good pal. I could almost buy a plane ticket to the UK for what they want to charge me to ship something there. 
I went to World Market yesterday with my husband, and I got this mug for my tea. They say on TikTok to "get your favorite tea mug", when you are making a cup of tea. So this will be my tea mug. This holds two "cups". I measured the water this morning..   So far, my favorite tea is Yorkshire Tea. I like Tetley too. I like the Cumbrian Tea, but Yorkshire is my fave. I think I have enough tea for a Boston Tea Party. 😝   

Today is the nine month anniversary (?) of my surgery. I have an appointment tomorrow morning with the doctor (surgeon). For "Survivorship Care".  I had a bunch of other appointments earlier this month. So far (as far as I can see?) everything looks normal...  I am still a little worried, though.
