What a bad day. The weather was beautiful. Sunny and upper 20s. Church was good. But I inadvertently started a row online with some friends. I emailed them individually to apologize but no one is replying. I hate leaving things hanging like that. I want closure if not forgiveness. But I can’t force anyone. So I opened my last package of girl scout cookies and brewed half a pot of this tea. Yummy. It’s the best comfort available to me right now.

Perhaps they are offline or perhaps they just need a bit of time and sanity to mull things over. Give space. Hopefully, they will come around. Oh, and be kind to yourself.

Sorry for the friendship frustration! Hope all is well—once the thaw comes, will you be prone to flooding? If so, will be praying for you to stay high and dry!

My friends and I have been able to discuss and all is well again. :)

The mayor of Fargo has signed a state of emergency. We will definitely have a flood. How bad we don’t know yet. MY dept at work as signed up to man the spider Monday morning from 10-noon. That is, make sandbags.

I’ve seen the pics of other places like Nebraska and my heart goes out to them.

We’ve done the disaster thing personally (tornado rather than flood). It’s hard physically and emotionally. Praying. Keep us posted.

Bio

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
