Mosaic Monday~Macro Monday




Gifted young lady
She dances and sings with joy
She's MY granddaughter!







This is not a picture that has been altered!  The tree really is growing out the  clock tower of the Greensburg, IN courthouse.  If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it!  Wishing all a wonderful week!

Thanks be to God!

Then Joy in Tea Talk



There is a great deal of poetry and
 fine sentiment in a chest of tea. 
 ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, Letters and Social Aims~

I'm having...English Breakfast tea.  It's eye opening.

My teacup...my little halloween mug unpacked from its box for the season.





I'm feeling... refreshed.  It has been a grand week.  The kids here last weekend, The three day Parish Mission on forgiveness, and last night the  White Mass for physicians and healthcare workers offered by Bishop Thompson.


On my mind...Simply preparing for today.

Please join Ruth at Tea Talk today.

~~~~~~~

Today I also join Meri for Share the Joy Thursday.   For I believe we need to find it in my life every day no matter the realities in which we live.  God is Good in so many ways even in times of trial.




Lower Yellowstone Falls

The mist, it rises
The falls in beauty thunder
We all stand in awe!

 Thanks be to God!!!

Mosaic Monday~Macro Monday



The Westside Nut Club Fall Festival was this last week and we had a grand time.  The Kellers and Stauffers from INDY were down and we each had our moments at the Festival.  There is so much food and such a variety that you just don't know where to begin.  There's the chicken and dumplings, brain sandwich,  fried cookie dough,  Hay Stacks, chili and steak sandwiches.  And don't forget the rides.

This weekend was one of those Indiana weekends you just want to put into a bottle and save for a time in January or February when you want to go outside and revel in the glory of the sun and bask in its rays.  Glory be to God!

Haiku My Heart










When beauty appears 
It's a delicate treasure 
Worth its weight in gold
