Last night I was wracking my poor brain trying to come up with something fun & unique for Saturday Surprise. My mood wasn’t really well-suited for the task at hand, for the news of the past week had left my angry and more than a little grumpy. Just as I was about to give up, something drew my attention. It’s a story of healing, of giving, of … well, just take a look for yourself. It brought a smile to my tired old face and I think it will do the same for you!
Have a fun and happy weekend, dear friends!

HAH!!! Almost impossible to stay away from the news, but … I DID go out to the bookstore and the Fresh Market this afternoon with the girls, and even bought a fiction book … a nice mystery by Linwood Barclay … and I took some extra “me-time” this afternoon to read about 100 pages just for pleasure! It was lovely, but that’s why I’m behind tonight 🤭

Jill, just “wow!” I loved the shot of the older couple holding hands, but when I got to the Koala bear story, I was teary eyed. What a beautiful story that was borne from a sister’s gesture to send a music box to her soldier brother. Thanks, Keith

Love it, Jill. Wish I could change the news for you but —. Take a breath, sit down for awhile, listen to a little bit of Bach, another deep breath and let it out. c’mon now, let it out! You’re turning blue! LET THAT BREATH OUT!!! good! Now, don’t you feel a little bit foolish for following advice from a crazy woman?

Thanks, Michael!!! I’m really glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I wondered just yesterday where you were and if you were okay, or if you just started your weekend pillow-hugging a few days early! 😊

Thanks for your care, Jill! I really tried to hug my pillows, but the new kind of coffee is strong enough to prevent it. 😉 xx Michael
