A Pride and Prejudice Tea Party, this is the stuff a tea lover and bibliophile get excited about...but when the event is full for a party of 6, what does a P&P girl do? Book a party of one! I will be taking a copy of Pride and Prejudice as my date and delight in the solitude.
I am spreading my wings, enjoying life, living out of my comfort zone. Elizabeth Bennett would be so proud of me.
I spread out my passport and told God, "Fill it up with stamps." He answered and I will be getting my first passport stamps in 42 years. My first mission trip to Poland. I thought the mission organizers were making all the arrangements until last Saturday when I discovered they are only making the arrangements from Berlin to Poland. Big Gulp. I am responsible for getting to the rental car area at the Berlin Airport by May 20 at 4 p.m. Big gulp. A bit of panic. Then I realized, "Yes! I can do this!" (I had it in my mind that I would be with a group and I could follow the crowd and learn to navigate international travel so I could do my long desired Viking River Cruise at some point in the future). Things changed, I will be learning to do this one on my own. And then...I remembered, "I can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens me." Yep, I got this.
New season of life, new adventures, and tea parties for one...life is good.
