Moving In

Contribution by Stevie Kirby

With so many electric companies in Dallas to choose from I felt really overwhelmed at first. The whole moving process had been really overwhelming, actually, and I just hadn't realized there was so much involved with packing up everything you own and moving to a new location. 

I really miss my family most of all and it was the hardest moment of my life I think when my mom and dad drove off. I like it here in Texas so far and I really, really love my job. But I grew up in Connecticut and I don’t know anything but that life so it’s been an adjustment being here and trying to get used to something totally new. The food was tough – in CT we ate all kinds of produce and I really didn't eat much meat but here in Texas they’re all about the beef and barbecue. The first time I tried to tell someone I was a vegetarian just to make things easier they looked at me like I had three heads. 

I am also having a hard time fitting in with my style, mostly because almost everything I owned was black. I didn't have a lot of warm weather clothes so I've had to buy those and I don’t really know what to do with all these big dresses and belt buckles. And don’t even get me started on finding a hair dresser. Anyway, I like my new town home a lot and it’s a big change to own my own place instead of renting. I was worried about the stress of a mortgage but that’s been pretty easy – it’s figuring out the right utility companies and gardener and doctors that have been tough. 

I think that’s the hardest thing about moving; having to pick up your life and not know where to go to start over. The internet makes it easier than it used to be, I’m sure, but it’s still not a cake walk.

I'm noticing that my eyes aren't as sharp as they once were and the t.v. seems so-far-away sometimes.  Oh well, with glasses as cute as these I'm not bothered.  I think I'll go for the 4th style down, the one with the blue "handles".  Which pair do you like?

Delicious Taste Of Rooibee Red Tea

I first heard of Rooibos (pronounced:  ROY-bos) tea from my mother.  She was reading the book series "The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency" and the author mentioned tea made from the Rooibos bush and the health benefits of this tea.  My mom researched this product and started drinking tea made from Rooibos and wanted me to try it to alleviate my sinus pain.  I'm always ready to try a natural product for pain relief and that began my lesson in Rooibos.

I was recently given the opportunity to try a line of beverages that incorporate the health benefits of the Rooibos bush in refreshing, tasty drinks that are cold and delicious, just perfect for a warm, Spring or Summer day - Rooibee Red Tea.

 

I prefer my children (and all children!) to avoid drinks with caffeine and Rooibee Red Tea is caffeine free, full of antioxidants and a full serving of Vitamin C.  Each bottle contains between 80 to 90 calories. 

Full ingredients of Cranberry Pomegranate:

INGREDIENTS:
Water, Organic Cane Sugar, Organic Rooibos Tea Extract (390mg), Gallic Acid Equivalent (78mg),
Natural Flavor, Organic Citric Acid, Organic Ascorbic Acid, Hibiscus Extract (color).

My family and I enjoyed the tastes of Rooibee Red Tea.  I find a no more flattering review then to have my 15 year old daughter ask, "Is there any more?"  Let me say, when our review bottles were empty, she wanted to know where we could buy more of her favorite flavors.  I'm up for that!  Rooibee Red Tea is available in delicious flavors:  Peach, Cranberry Pomegranate, Watermelon Mint, Vanilla Chai and Unsweetened.  (The Peach and Cranberry Pomegranate were the favorites in our house.)  You can try these for yourself when you purchase them at New Seasons, Whole Foods and Kroger Stores.
