A Get Well Gift From Calgary!

Yes, I've been a little under the weather lately; but not horribly sick.  I've been in Greenslopes Hospital for day surgery and I'm getting better as each day passes.

I told some friends on Bookcrossing and had well-wishes coming from near and far.  One of my friends sent me a lovely card from Melbourne with a couple of bookmarks for next year's Bookcrossing Convention - and invited Mum and me to go to it; so we could all meet up there.  What a great adventure that would be!  I'd love to go to Melbourne again.

Then, last week sometime, while I was away at Brighton at my brother's house, a parcel arrived at the post office from Calgary.  This week, I picked it up and I opened it to find one of my wonderful friends from there send me a little box filled to the brim with wonderful things to help me feel better!  This includes a half-pound Reeces Peanut Butter Cup!!!  It was amazing to see one of these; even my Dad was astounded as he picked it up and felt it.  It will be nibbled at little by little.  I must thank Herchelle for sending me this wonderful box of lovely things.  I do love everything you've thoughtfully sent me; especially the cds - I played them yesterday and do love them a lot!  Great music comes from Canada and nobody gives it a chance.
