Tea Talk




I'm Having:  green tea with honey in one of my Oma's mugs.  Ever since I can remember she served coffee in these mugs.  It's nothing fancy.  There is no marking on it.  It was part of a larger set, probably mass produced.  I only have the one mug though.  I think it was one of the last things I took from the estate sale.

I'm Feeling:  stir crazy!  Being iced in is no fun.  Not sure if dh will let me out today or not.  The roads are still icy in some spots.  My guess is he won't.  :-(  Also, a mix of emotions for several friends.   

On My Mind:  A dear friend who lost her father this week.  And four families at church with babies on the way this year!

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance... Ecclesiastes 3:1-4


  Reading over this, I realized how depressing it sounds.  Certainly not my intention, especially for my first ever Tea Talk!  I assure you there is still joy in my heart; and there is a bit of excitement in this icy weather we are having, believe it or not.  And I certainly don't want to be a 'downer' to anyone today, so let me end on a more joyful note:

Thou wilt shew me the path of life:  in thy prescence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.  Psalm 16:11

Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.  Habakkuk 3:18
