Big Little Things / Many Thanks

When I got home from work today, a box was waiting for me behind the screen door. To my surprise, it was from Wayne!!! THANKS WAYNE!!! So nice of him and all this time he was telling me NOT to get him something for this holidays! Holy torpedos! I knew he was up to something! Also when I was checking my mail, I received a lovely handmade card [it's a beaut!!] from Homer! It's so fantastic!!. [Not to rub, I mean uh, boost your ego Homer, and may truth be told, it is one of the nicer cards that I've seen in a long while! Maybe it's the fact that the card was made from the heart!] I've also gotten stuff from other online friends before... music CDs from Stuart [non-blogger], Jeff and Sushil, and a DVD from Dr.P... I feel so blessed!

I guess I'm a bit overwhelmed! Seeing the individual's handwriting on a card or on a CD, hearing their voices over the phone, things like that are sorta like little 'gifts' that they leave behind. It's like taking a little glimpse or a sneak peek on who these people are. Very intimate. I think to myself: Wow, these people took the time to do all this for me, and seeing how they write and what they sound like for the first time, put a big big smile on my face! It's a total trip! I love this feeling... :-)

That's really all I want to say today. I feel extra special right now, and I'm glad that I finally took my time to express this. Thanks everybody very much. I can't tell you all enough.

Maybe this will be my last post for the year!?! Dunno! So Merry Christmas everybody and have a happy, safe and a healthy New Year to come. Take great care of yourself, and each other! HO HO HO!!
