~Tea Talk~

If you are cold, tea will warm you.  

If you are too heated, it will cool you. 

If you are depressed, it will cheer you. 

If you are excited, it will calm you. 

~Gladstone, 1865~

I'm having...Constant Comment tea with a bit of Splenda to sweeten the beginning of this new day.

My teacup...Is a glass of orange juice right now, but the kettle is on.

I'm feeling...excited because I was able help by sanding the drywall and I removed the wallpaper.  I decided to take it down, reluctantly, because I was it would be faded or yellowed so that what I had left from having put up would not match.  Later yesterday after I had gotten it all down I found the roll that was left.......When I compared the two, old and new, I found there was no change in color. (SIGH)  Oh, well, live and learn (still!)!!!Another of life's lessons:  Even in the zeal to be prepared, always check the wallpaper with the leftover paper.  So now, I'll be wallpaper shopping!

On my mind...What color paint do I want in the kitchen and since I like the blue plaid wallpaper, will I be able to get something like it that I like?

Wishing all a wonderful Thursday!!

My teacup...I found this searching for something else this morning and thought it a good idea to use it. 

I'm feeling...excited about the weekend.  They are finishing the wiring in the kitchen.  The drywall will be up and in place and the "mud 'n' tape" done.  I think I'll shop for paint! 

 Before...

After...(and more to come)

On my mind...still is my preparation for the RCIA presentation I will give this Sunday along with the preparation for the discussion of this Sunday's scripture reading.  I always need prayer!

Wishing all a wonderful Thursday!!

~~Mosaic/Macro Monday~~

A crisp day with snow covered lawns at 

Saint Meinrad Archabbey.  A grand place

to gather with Sisters of Providence, Assoicates,

and Candidates.  We shared a meal, witnessed a

commitment renewal, and spent time in 

conversation and reflection.  Twas a wonderful

 way to spend the Lord's Day!

 
The baby afghan for wee Xavier is begun
and will be finished in time for his arrival
in March.
