Satchel of Tin Cupped Tea-Lites

I did receive her 6 by 9

tithing request in the mail,

to give an offering too help the

needy. She then sends me her free

audio sermon CD’s-without fail…

she wrote my name for me several times

too, expressing the importance of helping others,

or maybe it was her staff personnel. Either way it was

with a pen, and not a printing machine

But, anyway, I cleaned

out the dresser drawers, and

it was the Niagara postcards that

I threw away. They were in the blue dresser,

that cheap one I bought from Value City. It’s made

of press board. I will take a picture of it before I throw it

away too.

It’s nice to be able to let

things go, and to see and feel

and realize what I need…Over what

I don’t need. It’s the hoarder in me.

Now as for them

candles you mention,

some of them are sandalwood

scented. They are very pungent in

their perfumes. Even though they are

in a plastic freezer bag, they made the

3^rd drawer down smell really nice. They

were just collecting dust for 6 years and 9 months

with that satchel of tin cupped tea-lites.

I lit a candle

the night before last

for Derecho, as you already know…

(did you see the shadow of the Pagan Goddess?)
