A Haven for Vee

Not Planning a Post...Until!

That's right. I am feeling so "under it" after the events of the weekend that I was just going to lie low today.

John came home for lunch bringing in a heavy package with a bright orange sticker. Immediately, my "under it" mood began to lift.



Becky from Hospitality Lane has sent me candles...lots of them to enjoy! She sent Citrus Infusion, Country Apple, Apple Cinnamon, Cranberry Balsam, Candy Cane, and Cucumber Cantaloupe, which is burning right now as I type this up. Hmmmmm... You can find her candle shop on her sidebar and I'm putting that information on my sidebar as well. She also sent a card with the sweetest message that means the world to me. Thank you so much, Becky! You've pulled my sorry little self out of a slump for sure. John thanks you, too!

  3. Vee,

    I am glad they arrived safely. They spent a bit of time in my sun warmed van before they got to the post office and I was concerned....sigh.

    You were very creative with the photos. Fun!

    Hugs.

    Becky K.

  15. What a wonderful surprise! I hope you feel better soon. Isn't GOD great the way he works through others. Just when we are feeling under the weather he sends us a little angel with a gift or a kind word. Then we are up and feeling like ourselves again.

  16. I do hope your back feels better soon. Also, am thinking of your mom - makes my want to weep.

    Candles - I have never figured out whether it is the scent or the combination of the flame and scent that makes us feel better.

    Glad you had a laugh with your grandmother.

  19. MMMMmmmmm...the names of those candles sound so delightful! Enjoy them, Vee, you deserve them!

    PS MY favorite opera is the next one that I will be seeing at the end of this month. There is going to be an added excitement for me this time as someone I know from blogging is making their debut in it! Stay tuned! :-)
