I am trying to relearn how to be me
I’ve just dranken a large glass of tea.
Yes, dranken
Yes, large .. yes glass.
I used to drink large glasses of tea, “all the time”, and once they were drunk, they were dranken. This is because I also used to utilize the English language, oh so very often, and with great aplomb.
Sadly, those days have fallen by the wayside; but, no more!
I shall drink my large glasses of tea, and believe now that they are of great and healthful benefit to me. In prior years, I was told that this is simply not so, that once should cut down for this reason and that. Well, in prior years, before I did cut down and started drinking more water instead, I was a much healthier person.
I used to walk everywhere and drink large glasses of tea. Something which is, again, fashionable. Well, maybe not the large glases; no, myriad small cups of tea should be made, in endless repetition, and sipped in a genteel manner.
However, I shall make very large glasses of tea, only a few times a day, and suck them down in a very gentile, let’s use it all up now and quickly, manner.
And, then, perhaps, I shall walk.

Tea- The fuel of life- I sometimes drink so much tea in a day out of my huge Alice inspired teacup (bucket more like)
Like the idea of genteel little cups and sipping away
Ah the ritual of tea- it fills a space of boredom and contemplation
Stick the kettle on xxxx

Well, had I known that tea was the remedy to relearning how to be … Wonderful writing Arletta!

lol Tea is a remedy for a lot. Which is why it’s particularly funny, in some movie or other, when a woman exclaims “Tea may cure a lot of things, but it doesn’t bring back the dead.” More than likely, she’s right. However, it might stop them from cropping up so often.
Thank you.

I prefer to walk with, rather than for or against, people. Recently I read that drinking 10-1/2 cups of green tea per day is very good for your health and energy levels. They said other tea may also be, too, but green tea is the one everyone has studied up on.
10-1/2 cups would be approximaetly 3 of my glasses, which are the same size as the ones I used to drink and sometimes I would drink far more than 3 of those a day.

This is the ending of a great book!
Arletta replied
Is it?
hmm .. . maybe it is.
I was going to write the story of my marriage. Never got around to it, as that’s a lot of emotional baggage to unzip and contend with the contents of, all at once. But, it would make a bit of a good ending for that story.
