Surprises

by Kathie on February 4, 2010

Well, I survived the dentist; despite being so nervous at one point that I thought my heart would beat right through my chest.  I do like my dentist and his staff they are quite good with cowards like me.  Still its a nerve-wracking experience that leaves me sick to my stomach before the appointment, oddly energetic when its immediately over, and completely worn out from the roller coaster long before my normal bedtime.

I was blessed to come home a bit earlier than usual and found a couple of surprises that just made the day a touch better.  First there was an envelope from Thomas with some lovely seeds enclosed!  I can’t wait to try them out in a few months.  Thank you Thomas!   

The next surprise, was walking into the kitchen and seeing the light streak through my handmade curtains.  Curtains that I haven’t been 100% sure about since making them.  Now, I know they’re perfect.

Have you had any surprises lately?

Sometimes it’s the littlest things that mean the most. I love your surprise seeds! That was a very thoughtful gesture.

Last night my husband had a meeting at church. At dinner I had told him of a small victory in my quest to work from home. When he came back from his meeting, he brought me a Milky Way candy bar—my favorite!

Yesterday was my birthday. My sister in law left a gift on our doorstep, quite unexpected and lovely.

Oh! They’re beautiful! We have lace sheers under our thermal curtains in the living room. They’re just the sheers that were hanging up when we bought the house. I don’t actually like the way they look in the window, but I love the pattern they make on the wall, so I keep them up.

Your curtains look great in the window though!
