Ahh….What a Nice Surprise!

2 Comments/ 1507/ 0

Sometimes someone out there somehow just knows when you need a lift!  Today, for some reason, I did and I had a wonderful surprise that awaited me when I went to the mail box!  I found a little package with a really sweet homemade card (she just got a new Cricut machine!), some fall coasters and post it notes and a fabulous Longaberger checkbook / credit card/ holder cover thingy!!!  I loved it!  And all “Just Because”!!!  No special reason—just because she was thinking about me.  Who, you may ask?   My sister’s grade school friend–Becky!!   How sweet is that??   Very!!!  So of course I had to give a shout out to her to tell her thanks since she is one of my most faithful blog readers!

I am always sending little packages out to folks—the boys get regular goodie boxes, the nieces get them occasionally and various friends get things now and then and I love to do that but it made me realize today how much I love getting things like that!!!  It made a cloudy dreary Iowa day sunny and a little bit brighter! Thanks, Becky—for sharing!!!!  Today I was blessed a little more than usual!

Old Girls in Low Cotton

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
