I
CAME HOME THE OTHER DAY TO FIND A PACKAGE AT MY DOOR FILLED WITH
GOODIES. i HAD BEEN HAVING A ROUGH TIME PHYSICALLY WITH DOCTORS AND SUCH
AND THOUGH FOOD BRIGHTENS MY DAY WHAT REALLY GAVE ME A GLOW WAS WHO THE
GIFT WAS SENT FROM.

Just
2 days later I received another gift from a friend who had been
dismayed at my not being able to pick up my prescriptions the day I was
suppose to start them.

I
confess that as much as I have been around I was shocked at what people
say and do on blogs--their disrespect, their vulgarity, their back
stabbing and complete lack of manners--and that's just the women!!! LOL

I
have also been extremely lucky in finding friends as I have a knack
for, as a rule, picking out the best people and, due to blogging I have
met (some in person, some soon to be in person and some better save up
their pennies for my 20th Leap Year birthday in 2016 when they will be
invited to my big bash!) about 10 people who I am proud to call my
friends and not because they send/sent me gifts.

I
love surprises and they constantly surprise me with thoughts and deeds.
I feel sorry for people who don't have them as friends but even then I
hope my enemies have some one, any one, comparable to any of these 10
loving, good people. I have become a part of the life of these friends
and they have become a part of mine--THANK YOU FOR BEING MY FRIEND!
