My daily FX routine
I get up pretty early, normally around 5:30am and that does include weekends. The day starts with turmeric, ginger, pepper, lemon and honey hot drink.

The pain of Siri, the talking assitant on the I-phone that you apparently can’t totally disable. I will probably return my I-phone this week if I can’t find a solution as it is driving me crazy!
