3 Surprises!

I had such a wonderful Day today!
It did not start out that way!
I had no energy but I am used to that,
and I am not complaining,
but some days are just draining!
..............
When I grabbed the mail,
look at the wonderful items that came to me,
I had entered a giveaway over at
Monica's from The White Bench 
These items are handmade,
3 beautiful cards,
and the lovely heart,
and the packaging. 
true bliss!
Thank you so much Monica,
they are truly treasures!
.........
Please check out her blog, if you love romantic and beautiful, you would love to stop by and have a visit. I have been following her now for about a year, and every time I go, for a few moments I feel like a princess.She also has the most amazingly photogenic dog Kim, check her out on Monica's 
sidebar. I love Kim with the big Hat.
Monica is very talented and creative, often she shows what items looked like before she got her hands on them and then the after results. She is a true artist.!
............
And then my oldest sister phoned,
and she has bought a ticket for her and I
to go visit her daughter, son and future daughter in law.
I was so excited, It is not until the middle of March,
but it was a very special surprise!
I really have the best sisters in the whole world.
They know I can't really get out by myself!
So often they are very generous and kind!
............
And the third surprise,
my husband came home with
an Ice Cappucino from Tim Horton's!
My fave!
It all turned out to be one of my Very Best Days!
I hope you had a great day too!

  5. Once, I was dreading something.
    And I said, maybe it'll turn out ok.
    YAY!
    I fell in love and had the best time of my life.
    It changed me forever.
    Good thing we are learning to trust things that might be in our own best interests.
    Every day is a gift!

    Thasnks Elk, and the pictures don't do them justice at all.

    Char it was a nice day, I hope you slow down a bit so you can take a breath. thinking about you. Take care.

    Beth, it was a nice day, now if every day can run as smooth...no I am pretty lucky, I loved what you did for your daughter today. have a good weekend at the cottage.

    Spotted Wolf, I know that and it is not in the form of emails, although I do appreciate them too. IT would have been my dads birthday on the 10th of this month. We are all doing much better. Strange how you can feel their prescence. Have a great weekend all the best to you and Sue.

    TechnoBabe, I was very excited. I have never gotten a package from Italy before, so I was on the moon! I think it will be the closest I ever get to that part of the world. I have always wanted to go see all the statues, etc.
    So now I feel like I have a little piece of it here. Have a great weekend. Hope you are well.

    Anne, yes thanks for reminding me that everyday is, and what will be will be. I am glad you fell in love, and I trust we just keep getting better. Big hugs my friend. Thanks.

    Monica, if you were here I would go to Starbucks with you. I can't say enough good words about you and your blog. Thank you so so much. Take care. Big hug

    Bernie, they were lovely, I am excited to go for a visit out west to see my niece and nephew and spend time with my sister. Hope you had a great day. I appreciate all your visits Bernie, you have a special place in my heart. You are always so kind. Hugs to you.
