You may or may not have noticed that my April calendar has filled up for posts, which means that I have finished updating my posts on our Turkey trip. There are pics within the posts, or I will make a separate post with just the photo album. There are 778 pics in the album, so if you just want the highlights, I recommend just going to the posts. π
Our last free day in Istanbul was spent mostly shopping around and enjoying the last day there. Here are some pics of our purchases –
You might be curious about the boxes of NuvaRings. This is my preferred method of birth control and while it may be a little personal to blog about this, I think sharing this kind of information is important. While I normally pay something close to 30USD or more a box for the NuvaRing, I paid only about 9USD per box in Istanbul. So…what’s a girl to do, but get a year’s supply when the opportunity presents itself!? π It’s really shocking to consider how much medicine is in the States, when it is so much more reasonable in other parts of the world…. Makes one a bit sick to think about the profit that is being made in the US….Anyway, no tangent on politics!
So, that was Turkey.
Today is also the first day of my Cipralexing @ 10mg. Other than a slight headache – probably from it -, I’m doing okay. I was thinking in the car today that I actually like the feeling quite a bit. It’s like being buzzed without the alcohol, which is how R once described it to me and he’s right. I am hoping I will get a bit more used to the haziness I feel, but otherwise I am definitely feeling calmer and my mind seems a bit more settled, if that makes any sense. We will see how we continue to go with the 10mg, but I may just stay with this for now. π
