Radiant reflections!


Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

It is another rainy miserable day! However, was up early, took our Blue out in the pouring rain for his daily constitution, put on a large pot of coffee, boiled the water for Alan's tea, lit a cosy fire, and turned on some lights to brighten up our home, on this dark day.

We have some really neat cabinet lights; and every once in a bit while, we turn on these lights to shine on our Lady Head Vases 'behind the glass', if you will. We collect Lady Head Vases, as well as a few oyster plates. For those of you, who are collect these items and / or other collectibles, you can appreciate the enjoyment of your collection and radiant display lights. Also, our antique Czechoslovakian green crystal wine glasses are in a lighted cabinet; and I love how the prisms sparkle from these delicately cut crystal pieces. We appreciate the beautiful craftsmanship of these glasses; and when we use them, our "Skals", are that much more 'special!'

This is a time too, to reflect and 'take stock' of what matters most to you; particularly during these uncertain times. Personally, it is about getting 'back to the basics' and, also having FAITH in Him, to Provide your needs. You can refer to yesterday's post for a bittidz background, if you wish.

Tonight, we are going to enjoy again, both the turkey soup leftovers and the hockey game on our T.V. The Canucks were great last night; so we will cheer them on again this evening! Methinks, we have the makings of a good team.

Tidbit - We are still 'waiting' (for Solution); however, as I have already mentioned, do your best to enjoy today; simply living one day at a time. Take extra delight in your home and appreciate the 'little things'; ie sparkling cut crystal reflections, fresh cut flowers, whatever gives you a tid of joy and brightens your spirits. Alan just picked me a glorious yellow rose from our garden; and it looks wonderfully picturesque with the rain drops on it.

Bittid - Regardless of all the globular 'turmoil', do your best to have a 'positive' outlook. Ask Him to Carry your Burdens; He always DOES. It is amazing how uplifted you feel, when you do that. It is as if a huge load has been lifted from you. Try it! He does not give you any more burdens then you can handle. You just need to have the Courage of Faith to Lean on Him. I always think of it, in that way; and that helps.

Love the above photo! That is of a pair of our Green Glass Hatted Lady Head Vases. You can refer to the posts of August 3/07 and / or October 1/07, if you wish some tidbitz information.

God Bless.
