just when you think you cannot stand another minute, life suddenly brings you sunshine and puppy dog tails?
Bob the Carpenter just arrived to continue putting back up my kitchen wall. yes, it really has been 6 weeks since they tore it out. that may deserve its own post, but i just try not to think about it.
anyway, Bob asked whether i knew there was a package on the stoop... which i didn't.
out i popped to discover a box courtesy of my recently made e-friend Denise. even before opening it, i was all full of happy squiggles. Travy has made it his mission to change things, but it is still pretty rare for me to be the spoilee instead of the caretaker.
so many delightful surprises awaited me. i felt like Amahl when Caspar reveals his lovely secrets:
I never travel without my box.
In the first drawer I keep...
JAM! Homemade happy jam!
Presents from Denise (Unravelled)!

This is my box, this is my box.
I never travel without my box.
In the second drawer I keep...
Kittycats. And yummy, energizing soap!
This is my box, this is my box.
I never travel without my box.
In the third drawer-
Oh, little boy! Oh, little boy!
In... the third... drawer... I keep...
BLACK SWEET LICORICE, BLACK SWEET LICORICE!
LORNA'S LACES! SOFT, SUPPLE LACES!
SOOTHING VIBRANT LACES!
Its all MINE!
Presents from Denise (Unravelled)!

I'm so glad you liked it! I can't think of anyone who deserves a little treat more right now.
Very best of luck to you today!! I'll be thinking of you and ready to toast your success this evening!
(don't worry, I've managed to save a few exclamation marks for later)
