    Well, I guess I may join everyone on the bench. I'm bringing lava cake and a big spoon.

    I know the post office has been busy with taxes and stuff because my SP hasn't received hers yet either. I am very patient.

    I guess my package was either circling over and over or stopped to rest before it even started good on it's journey. It didn't even make it out of state until the third day. :roll: Sorry SP, there's a reason it's called "Snail Mail" :lol: I hope you get it soon. (Oh, I forgot about taxes, that would explain it!)

    With all this food I'm bringing lots of napkins and a nice big salad. Any lemonade left?

    I am getting closer to home to check my mail and see if I have a package. I hope my SP knows that it will be a bit yet before I get home.

    I am doing the happy happy joy joy joy dance again this week. This time it is because I am off the bench! I got home from a rather stressful day, to find a wonderful package awaiting me from cojomomma! I love everything in the package, especially the potholders she made me. She included my favorite candy, (yes I love gummie bears, LOL). Some beautiful fat quaters that I will have lots of fun with! Some pretty yarn to include in my other favorite pastime (knitting). A beautiful beaded personalization tag "Just for me" that I plan on using on my favoite beverage bottle a work and sewing groups. A wrist band pincushion (can't seem to ever have enough places to put my pins), some no scratch, no slip tabs, I plan to give these a try on my rulers and mats. And she shared a personal note with a fun story inside a pretty card. This is such a special package and one that I needed today especially.

    You are so welcome dragonfly. I'm glad it made your day better. There was a reason why the gummy bears were lost so that you could have something to cheer you up on a bad day.
