[quote=Jupiter]Oh Faye, I am in love with your Bostons! We had a Boston years ago and she lived up to 11 years old and passed naturally. I miss her (Clover). She was my absolute shadow. Those dogs are really smart and you are lucky to have 2 cute ones.
hugs, Jup
Louie and Roxy send you slobber kisses!

My 1st eye surgery has been moved up from 11/1 to 10/25
no one wants surgery, but I can't wait. I have quilts to make. I just hope it helps.

to my secret pal number #2: i ordered you something from ebay that was to be here by now but it hasnt shown up yet so........ i will wait another day or two to see what's shaking with it.
it is something along the genre of what you noted you liked and i like this particular genre very much and this one in the genre specifically so i hope that i get to send it to you with your package or i will just sub with something else. either way i will have your firmie in the mail by deadline day.
hint to my secret pal number #1:
My firmie is flying over the ocean
My firmie is flying over the sea
My firmie is flying over the ocean
Oh, deliver my firmie to me SP
i hope you find enjoyment and some use in the contents of your destination bound firmie.

But actually I am sure I speak for all internationals when I say I really love opening my package each month because even if I can get the things here someone has chosen them specially for me.

Today I sent out my SP package. So far my hint was that it was going to a state with 8 letters. Next clue is that her first and last name start with the same letter of the alphabet and third clue is that part of her address sounds like royalty to me.

We do have nail files and note pads, but not many of the cute ones you have and when we do have them they are expensive.
Part of the adventure is receiving things that come from another country and discovering how different they can be. Canny started a whole rush on Cadbury Flake Bars when she sent some in July, I think. Wine gums were another wonder. Lawsonmugs was yearning to get some of those for ages.

I hope it helps Wanda Lou. My eye op is on 11/1 and it is getting awfully close. I will keep fingers crossed for both of us.
