Are you ready for this day, I'am. This week was such a productive week I actually got some things done.. Yay me.. Some days it is so hard to do anything. I have panic disorder which some of you may remember. And though my attacks aren't as often as in the beginning I still struggle with it. But what comes along with it is depression, and I think it is because you can not be your whole self like before. But I have learn to cope with the most of it. With panic disorder it is hard to deal with commotion and drama. So me I avoid many things... But there are days that I sit on my couch don't get anything done and I just get stuck. I have to fight with myself to get up and think positive... So times it takes a minute or two, other days I can jump up and say I'm off this.. And sometimes I can do many things but not phone calls, even a simple task of paying a bill over the phone... Before this panic disorder came into my life I never had a problem doing a thing. But with much prayer and help from God and Jesus I believe I have concord much of these issues. He has lessoned the full blown panic attacks. I thank them both for being by my side everyday. Panic disorder is a ugly thing to bare and especially alone... There is a bible verse that a sister showed me years ago when I was first really sick with this panic. I don't re call what verse, but I do remember her telling me that he does not take it completely away but he can subside it for you, which means make it bearable and manageable and he has done that.... Amen... So today feel like a good day...though there's no sun shinning I feel it anyway's upon my heart and I'm grateful... I'm so grateful for the things he has taught me and given to me....
Today I'm sharing my favorite teapot. A Johnson Bros... From England... I love love this teapot and started collecting these pieces several years ago. I fell upon them on a blog that does't exsit anymore. There was never a name associated with the photos but it was instant love...
I'm not even sure how I found them. I think I stumbled across some pieces later at a goodwill which I left behind because they were with grazing, ha, I could just smack myself about it... And it was forever till I found this teapot. The original pattern I saw was the teacup one... The woman whos blog I saw them on she had the whole set given to her. It was her granmother's. It is reversed meaning the aqua is just on the trim, but since they were so difficult to find I grabbed up the teapot because I loved that big band of aqua around it and those pretty flowers of spring...
It is just so beautiful to me, fresh air...
A bouquet on the front as well.....
The teacup just as lovely.....
A pretty saucer, just makes your heart warm all over and makes you smile... I often wonder who owned this before and what were they like and what did they talk about over this teapot or teacup...
Tea is ready... I only have two teacups and saucers so far, as I said these are so very hard to find....
This is a new piece that I recently found. The same pattern as the teapot, it is in perfect condition...
Awe just look at those spring flowers and that beautiful aqua band...
I have aquired two different sets but they match just as well... Yesterday when I was taking photos I dropped a square luncheon plate, and broke it into many pieces, my heart almost couldn't take it... So now I'm one less hopefully I can replace it...
This is a dinner plate. Actually I have three different patterns...
The square luncheon plate/ salad plate...
Wide soup bowls....
Cereal bowls....
A small bread and butter dish which I only have one of... And it matches the dinner plate...
They make me breathless.... I also have the little berriy bowls...
The tip of the gravy boat, tiny little flowers....
Well it is off to accomplish something else today... I finally finished my doily which I will feature on my crocheting blog.. . @ beedoily.blogspot.com drop by and see.. Wishing you all a lovely Friday and a beautiful weekend, with love.... Janice
