My NoName - NoShame In the Teacup Saucer set

I have a dear cousin in Chicago Il..... that FB posts the prettiest thought each day.....

I'm calling a few of my darling collectibles..... 

a  NoName - NoShame Teacup and saucer set!

About my new cup......

I begin to notice the weight and sturdiness of the cup in my hand.... it is not the feel of fine bone china.   Today's antique shop discovery was not chipped, not worn.....   and the purple and gold trim was so lovable and too lovely to by-pass!

I yielded to a fair price..... simple because my garage-junk-hunting days are coming to an end via October 2014!   So... I need a fix.... I need to own another thing of beauty and joy and peace and tranquility.  Notice how I justify my actions  (smile)  !!

I also have a co-worker who signs out by email every day .... also with a kind thought for the day...

The Winter Rose by Jennifer Donnelly

...and yes, I like for people to tell me what happens in a movie b4 it happens.... sooooo

HERE"S THE STORY LINE...........It has been twelve years since a dark, murderous figure stalked the alleys and courts of Whitechapel. And yet, in the summer of 1900, East London is still poor, still brutal, still a shadow city to its western twin. Among the reformers is an idealistic young woman named India Selwyn-Jones, recently graduated from medical school. With the help of her influential fiancé--Freddie Lytton, an up-and-coming Liberal MP--she works to shut down the area's opium dens that destroy both body and soul. Her selfless activities better her patients' lives and bring her immense gratification, but unfortunately, they also bring her into direct conflict with East London's ruling crime lord--Sid Malone.

India is not good for business and at first, Malone wants her out. But against all odds, India and Sid fall in love. Different in nearly every way, they share one thing in common--they're both wounded souls. Their love is impossible and they know it, yet they cling to it desperately. Lytton, India's fiancé, will stop at nothing to marry India and gain her family's fortune.

Fractious criminal underlings and rivals conspire against Sid. When Sid is finally betrayed by one of his own, he must flee London to save his life. Mistakenly thinking him dead, India, pregnant and desperate, marries Freddie to provide a father for hers and Sid's child. India and Sid must each make a terrible sacrifice--a sacrifice that will change them both forever. One that will lead them to other lives, and other places . . . and perhaps--one distant, bittersweet day--back to each other.

Wonderful Wednesday!

You can't become ugly....

Generally, by the time you are REAL.....

most of your hair has been loved off,

and your eyes drop out

and you get loose in the joings

and very shabby.

But these things don't matter at all, 

Because once YOU ARE REAL

You can't become ugly,

Except to people who don't understand.
