OVERWHELMED!
After a very long week home with my sick 13 year old grandaughter (you know how cranky 13 year olds can be -never mind a sick one! LOL!) I came home yesterday after a trip to dunkin donuts for my "gabby"(the sick 13 year old) & found a package on my doorstep that Joe my mailman extrodainaire had left. I couldn't remember anything that was supposed to be coming in the mail for me so I was suprised to say the least! I tore into the box & found a beautiful hand written note from "christine" to moi! You know who you are christine & I am so overwhelmed by your kindness with these very special gifts! It was just the lift I needed after a long week at home (I don't like to be contained in one place for long so errands, shopping etc. fell by the wayside LOL!) Just look at the wonderful pretty things christine sent me-I'm touched & so thankful that there are so many kind people out there that you've never met in person, but think nothing of sending you something to brighten your day! Is this a pay it forward gift that I am supposed to keep & then send something from myself to someone? Christine if you are reading this-please advise! LOL!! I would be happy to send something to brighten anothers day myself! Your thoughtful gift was well timed & the perfect ending to a not so great week! If gabby is STILL not feeling good later on we go for blood work to test for MONO-UGHHH! A big THANK YOU to you Christine~xo
Just look at these tags!
A beautiful Journal In Lavender(my fav color!) , pretty notecards & a sweet notepad with a pen!
Hope everyone has a great weekend with wonderful weather wherever you are! xo
Chris,
I'm so happy I made your day a little nicer. Sorry to hear about Gabby being sick, I hope she get better soon! Everyone needs to brighten someone's day sometime. So please everyone just send a surprise package to a friend.
Smiles, Christine

Hi Chris,
That was so sweet of Christine. I agree about blogging friends. Most of us have never met each other but yet we are so close via blogland. I know what blogging has done for me and it's priceless.
Hugs,
LeAnn :)
P.S. I know I told you before (I think) but I absolutely love your home.!!
