The Joy in Tea Talk


Tea is a cup of life.  ~Author Unknown

I'm having...Good Earth spice tea.


My teacup...my Favorite mug brewed with the Kuerig.







I'm feeling...energized!  Had a productive day off and look forward to an excellent weekend.

On my mind...a weekend of celebration and friendly gatherings.  It is a time to go to the Woods and celebrate the installation of the sisters who will lead the congregation.  A time, too, to gather with friends at church for the parish picnic.  And, oh, the best time of year when the heat of summer is waning and the cool air of fall arrives.

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.

Mosaic Monday/Macro Monday

Pictures from vacation, 2011

Clouds flung into view
A vast sea of fluffy white
Just for our delight!



Wee flowers in the pond. 


Tis the season's end
Dainty ladies wilted not
Under scorching heat


Wishing all a grand Labor Day!

Thanks be to God!

The Joy in Tea Talk


I'm having...Iced peach tea.  IT's gonna be another scorcher today...

My teacup... a simple glass full of ice.


I'm feeling... ready to go, I guess.  Only two more days until the LONG WEEKEND!

On my mind...a long weekend in which I have a long list of things I'd like to get done in the yard and to the house.  And there are fond memories of the weeks past that have caused this need to WORK this weekend.


Lovely Old House in downtown St. Charles, MO
And it's for sale!

Joy is the finished afghan!  And why it took me so long to finish is beyond me!
