All the way from...
Hello Dear Friends! Today needed a 'cheer~up'... and it came in the mail. Recently I won a giveaway from Cucki... who lives in South Africa. She sent me a package of treasures... so full of thoughtfulness & kindness...
In the package was..
the postcard with beautiful photos that you see at the beginning of this post
a note card and handwritten letter in the most perfect penmanship... giving me congrats for winning
a Guardian Angel key ring
a sweet rooster cross stitch kit
some metallic threads
a pair of swan scissors with a delightful beaded FOB
a package of John James needles
and a new & beautiful tape measure (oh you should see what I WAS using!)
... all sweetly packaged in the cutest gift bags
but that isn't all! Cucki also made & gave me these darling flowers! I have a small handmade basket that I plan to put them in.
Cucki, thank you so much! Your kindness & generosity is just a joy!
I'm always amazed by my online friends & how far away they can be from me. Being from Kansas... I have never been out of the country or even seen the ocean. Maybe someday I will be able to adventure out. Until then... I will enjoy those far away places through you.
Even the postage on Cucki's package brought me smiles...
So, today needed a little 'cheer~up'... nothing terrible was really wrong. I was just a little down... but now I'm smiling again.
Wishing you warm smiles too...
Betty
