A Surprise in the Mail
For reasons that are too complex and confidential to share, I've had a rough couple of weeks. I can assure you that these reasons do not have anything to do with my health and happiness, or that of any of my family. I haven't even felt like sewing much.... certainly nothing more than just mindless sewing. After a couple of weeks of the stress, I was dragging when I came home yesterday afternoon. I stopped to get the mail and was surprised to find a package. I couldn't think what it might be... I haven't ordered anything and it's not my birthday or other special day. Then.... I saw who it was from... and I smiled.
Imagine my surprise when I opened the package and found a lovely note from a dear blog-land friend.... a beautiful blue and white tea cup and saucer... AND a package of chamomile tea bags!
Isn't this gorgeous?
I know I will enjoy using this cup and saucer for tea... and am grateful that an angel in my life, not knowing I needed a virtual hug, reached out and so brightened my day... my week... my month!
Thank you, Doniene!
That Doniene is priceless! I'm glad she blessed your life. What a lovely cup and saucer! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect gift, Freda. Doniene sounds like a perfect friend. Have a hug from me too. I hope things get better soon for you. :o)
