'Grapes' in my coffee


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

It is pouring with rain; as per the forecast! Once again, our carpets by our bittid patio door, are soaked right through! However, our tidbit towels are absorbing the water; and then into our dryer they go; to repeat the same process!

We watched a late movie last night (until 2:30 am), with Russell Crowe (one of my favourite actors); when I remember the name of the wonderful movie, I will let you know; as you may enjoy it! The story takes place in La Provence, France; and 'Max' (Russell Crowe)uncle (Albert Finney) passes away and leaves his estate / vineyard to him.

As I was 'stomping on the tid towels' earlier this am. I envisioned myself happily 'stomping upon grapes'; and this made this pressing bit task a lot more pleasant! LOL! Have always had a 'passion' to own a vineyard; and be 'hands on and / or feet on'! With a bittidz of reliable and steady help, to harvest, nuture, and bring the vineyard to fruition. I LOVE wine; so of course, one would have to 'taste' the production on an ongoing basis! LOL! Cheers! (I have a tidbitz cup of coffee at the moment!)I love the photo image of the coffee mug; very 'down to earth'.

The French countryside was magnificent! (Tuscany, Italy would be wonderful too!). 'Max' 'changed' from being totally consumed by work and earning 'macho money', to appreciating a peaceful and simple, yet enriched life. He also helped others. Good on 'Max'.

How many of us get 'bogged down' at times! That is where though, we can ask Him for His Help to carry our burdens; and He does! Also, we can ask Him to give us Understanding, Guidance, and Words of Wisdom, to Guide us through one day at a time.

In yesterday's post, re: 'our neighbours'; "Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you" is 'right on'. A genuine appreciation and a gentle 'nuturing' of others is what is called for.

Have an appointment; must go. Will be back later.

God Bless.
