About my Tuesday :)


This is a very messy looking picture LOL. 
This is actually taken with the 'selfie' mode of the camera,
because I wanted to be sure the candle by the 
Mother of God Joy of All Who Sorrow 
was still lit and I knew I could not get up to check! 
As you can see (back left) it was fine! 


Icing my poor ankle. 
It hurt again today :( I am trying to be really careful...
I got anxious about it and called the doctor's office, 
has anyone called me back, no.
I see my foot doctor tomorrow early afternoon.
Asking for prayers for wisdom for this. 



Another 'selfie check on candle picture' :)


This is the teapot set that I was talking about that I got with my Grandma.
It's the sweetest little tea pot, the sugar and creamer are newer.
the teapot is from Bavaria, the sugar and creamer I think are English.
The mirrored tray I love, esp. because I got it with my Grandma... 
hard to believe that it's like nearly 30 year ago now... 
"you know you are getting older when"
LOL. 
Granny Marigold, I can only imagine how much you would miss your Mom...
I am very greatful that I still have a lot of my family at this time in my life,
but I also know that things can change so quickly... 
The pink and white doily under the mirrored tray is one that my Oma, 
my Mom's Mom made... 


Mat Tatiana, Larissa's Mom, they died within just years of each other,
made this teacup! The Kleenex box and mirror were my Oma's and she
also made the doily. 


This cute delft teaset and other things we got an auction in Michgan some 
years back now! We ennded up with three boxes of things!
A real blessing because Delft is expensive and beautiful if bought new! 



I love this little display area, it's two small buffets next to each other! 
Our now retired former local Matuska gave me this star lamp for Christmas years ago... 
I had always wanted one! 



leftover fish for lunch! 


My 'wheelie' table that I can move easily, it's been such a blessing!


My tea tin with pens. 
***
So I started having pain at the ankle fracture site again :( 
So glad I am going back to the doctor tomorrow!
I hope I get an x-ray, because I would like the reassurance...
it does not look terrible to me but I don't like this pain that has been 
reoccuring... I was struggling with anxiety about it, to be honest...
for a few reasons... I am praying about them...
it's such a blessing that I have supportive family, freinds and also 
the love and care of God...
***
This Lent is all about Healing, Time and Patience...
***


I love this lamp, called Larissa, that I bought just weeks before I lost
my memory... it's so beautiful... and I love the lights I have on this 
bookshelf as well...
***
I am listening to one of my calming songs (the new one that I linked to a few times)
on my light pink headphones, so I don't bother my beloved Mr. Husband,
as we are getting ready for bed now.
***
I wrote some more on my writing project!
I have 8 documents on the go on this part of the writing project now.
That feels really good!
***
So finished Christmas at Thrush Green... it was a perfect ending...
so lovely... I started the first Fairacre one (I've read all of them) but
I am having a hard time leaving the one village for the other...
all things come with time and patience... or at least many things...
***

Well, I hope I sleep tonight...
tomorrow is going to be a busy day...
groceries delivered in the morning,
early mid-afternoon PT appointment...
***
May God have mercy on us.

praying for your ankle and your doctor's appointment to go well and the pain subsides :)

i will be praying for your appointment this afternoon. hopefully you will receive some good answers so that you will have peace of mind.

all those lovely treasures you have and the memories that go with them - they are a beautiful gift. i'm very fortunate to have my grandmother's wedding ring and some precious photographs.

i know what you mean about leaving thrush green for fairacre. it's always a bit of jolt as i keep expecting the characters to overlap!

I feel the same reluctance to leave Thrush Green and go over to Fairacre then when I change villages again it's the same feeling.
So you probably saw the doctor today and hopefully had an X ray and will know how your poor ankle is faring.
Our treasures are so meaningful when they come to us via loved ones!
