Guest guest Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 , They intercepted and took an innocent tea bag!!!!! Don't they have more important things to do? I'm glad you'll be joining all of us at Teqa time. I now find it a very good reminder to stop and rest and take it easy. Thanks again to Sher for our gifts of time-out ..

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 The Aussie response seems perfectly normal in our new crazy world of fear, real and imagined, around every corner. Jack Re: Ooh Aaaah Naughty Mama Sher Sher/Oh my.....wouldn' t you have loved to have seen them. All the commotionover a tea bag. Wonder if Sher's on a list to watch now. Funny that asdangerous as it is for $40 they'll send it back to her. It is good toknow they are protecting you though.We do forget sometimes how many insects and bacteria and othre things wehave here that your protected island of paradise has never seen and thatcould cause havoc.Now wondering how they will go about destroying the dangerous substanceas clearly they can't trash it or burn since it has such dangerassociated with it.Almost a bigger kick than if you'd actually gotten it.

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 ! How dare they spoil my fun! lol. I'm confused, if they intercepted it how do you know what it is or my writing? I had to fill out a paper for everyone out of the US stating it was nothing dangerous etc etc etc and no bombs! In that little pkg? Well I take it back, I suppose it's possible. But then they intercepted on your end...strange. Of course you made the right choice to have it destroyed! Isn't it "stranger" tho' stranger that it was deemed to dangerous to give to you but they would have sent it back through the mail again to me !? I also wonder why it was so much more $$ to return??? strange Our Post Office here got used to us after awhile, sending batches of tea bags. They were curious for sure! Rich told them what I'm doing and they all went "Ahhhh". Yes, of course have tea your time, we all do on "our time". That's the secret, all over the world, at different times, we are connected and thinking of one another! I'm glad you finally got it , one way or the other. Enjoy, along with my love for you. and that's not strange Hey, btw...why am I "naughty"?? Hmmmm. MamaSher, age 69. IPF 3-06, OR./ NasturtiumsDon't fret about tomorrow, God is already there!
