Now I'm thirsty.

Now I'm thirsty.

Think we could get some colored mugs around here? So we don't have to keep making our own. c(_)

OTOH, there are so many options every day at the coffee cart . . .

Actually, I want that Sumerian snake mug.

But I can look around and see if I can find some emoji-type images of cups.

Meanwhile, I could use a spot of tea. C\_/

Good reminder that the church year goes on, despite all the restrictions in society. c(_)

On which Sunday does it turn from x number of Sunday after Easter to x number of Sunday pre- Christmas?

A Rev will know better than me but isn't Pentecost next and then we count days from Pentecost or something like that?

 

[Redbaron]

After Pentecost (and Trinity Sunday, the 1st Sunday after Pentecost, if observed) we go into what is called 'ordinary time' for some reason that escapes me. The counting starts again with the Sundays in Advent (4 of them) before Christmas.

Oh, I suppose that was the children’s version of counting months, weeks, days to Christmas, after Christmas months to Easter and again after Easter months to Christmas. They don’t care about Pentecost or anything else in between.

No particular Christian feast days beyond saints' days maybe, so it's "ordinary" in that sense?

 

[ninj]

Whitsuntide is Anglican for Pentecost. Start of summer.

That's likely the reason, yes. Between Pentecost and Advent is pretty much high-holy-day free.

The church might have to rename "ordinary time" this year methinks!!

 

[Nancy]

Good point Carolla! The new normal can become the 'new ordinary'.

 

[BetteTheRed]

Added recently, there's Creation Time in the fall, yes?

 

[Redbaron]

Yes, in some denominations, a period is set aside for 'Creation Season.' This, too, should be noted. It starts, I believe, around Thanksgiving time? Anyway, it is coffee time. The cart is ready for your hot beverage needs.

For which we can be thankful in any season.

Turned kind of grey here after yesterday's gorgeous weather. Oh well, it's a work day so I wasn't going outside until evening in any case.

 

[paradox3]

Yesterday was amazing!

Coffee is amazing, too. c(_)

 

[ninj]

For some reason, NB seems to have similar weather to Ontario on any given day....maybe a few degrees cooler.
I'm grateful for a hot cup of Joe....thanks Redbaron.

I had the day off, because I worked last Saturday. Drove into Halifax to Costco with a shopping list for four households. Here is the good news: Costco has toilet paper! ( we didn’t need any).

Yeah, that's where we've been getting it here. I think our Walmart has been getting stock of some brands, too.
