The Joy in Tea Talk




Strange how a teapot can represent at the same time the
 comforts of solitude and the pleasures of company.
~~Author Unknown~~


I'm having...My very favorite Good Earth Tea


My teacup...is a delicate teacup.  It is so very dainty! 



I'm feeling... renewed.  I had a good rest last night and am ready to meet today!

On my mind...is the weekend.  It always seems to be so very busy anymore.  Thanks be to God for Wednesdays.  My day to catch up.  Saturday we go to Terre Haute to meet with Sr. Dorothy for Spiritual Direction and that evening is the Christ Renews His Parish potluck.  Sunday is the Boy Scout Pancake Breakfast at Holy Rosary, The Gathering of Providence Associates at Saint Meinrad Archabbey, and CRHP team formation Sunday evening.  Whew!!!  Pray for me!!!!


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.

Joy comes in many forms.
And this day has the potential of
being just as grand as


beautiful color and it's contrasts.  I must be open to it!




Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day. - Henri Nouwen

Haiku My Heart


Miner and his mule
In search of silver and gold
Hoping for riches

Seeking adventure
Looking for prosperity
But often found none.

Soon value is found
Finding what is real and true
Loyalty and friendship.

The miner and his mule are Stinky and Bernadine.  They are a reminder of the exciting past Virginia City once had.  A delightful man with a wonderful sense of humor and tales to tell.


~~~^j^~~~
Thanks be to God!

I'm having...My very favorite Good Earth Tea


My teacup...is my fun mug.

I'm feeling... tired and in need of some time to focus.  I feel disorganized and clearly need to take time to look at the next week and what I need to do before we venture to Atlanta next week.

On my mind...is the weekend.  It will be busy, especially on Saturday.  We will attend early Mass, attend this week's session of Catholicism and work at Mother Teresa's Treasures, St. John's thrift store.

Need to work in the garden, but it doesn't fit into the next two week's schedules. Oh, my!
