Life's a Stitch

I enviously read about other blogger’s positive mailbox experiences. It’s my own fault as I have chosen to refrain from secret pal activities. Call me a killjoy, but I’d rather use the money to buy exactly what I want and I can get the satisfaction of surprising others through the RAOK group. But this week, I had two blog surprises in my mailbox. A crane from Julie. I feel like I’ve arrived in the RAOK world having seen these clever birds on other’s blogs. I have never been able to accomplish origami, usually ending up with a pile of wadded up creased paper, so I’m especially appreciative. And I received my prize from Jane – mountain colours Barefoot in Flathead Cherry. I wish you could feel how soft it is. Thanks to both of you for brightening my week.
