Dear Friends,
I wanted to show you what I got in the mail today from my friend Tina from Denmark. I had ordered the Bird and Butterfly Art Kit from her awhile ago and much to my sorrow it never arrived so Tina put together another one for me. These are just a few of the darling bird pictures, cancelled stamps and tags that she sent to me and some smaller items were in the cutest little tin and then packaged up so sweetly. If you have never visited Tina before please pop over and see her lovely Blog and visit her Etsy shop as well. Thank you Tina for such sweet items. Here is Tina's Blog address.....http://tinybear-dk.blogspot.com/ Enjoy...I know you will!!

Hope all of you are having a great monday!!

Love to all and God Bless each of you,

Susan

    Hi Susan, so nice to meet you. You have such gorgeous tags and art. Love this kit that you received, I'm such a bird lover! Now to find out you are from England, how wonderful! That's my dream...to visit. I'd love a country cottage with a little garden and a cat in the window...a little fantasy of mine!
    hugs and blessings,
    Debra

My Beautiful Sam Passed Away This Afternoon......

Image
Hello Dear Friends, With an extremely heavy heart I tell you that I have lost my little friend tonight. I thought he was having hairball problems and so my husband and I brought him to the vets late this afternoon. Upon arrival Sam was gasping for breath and they rushed him into a room and gave him ogygen. The nurse asked us if she could take an x-ray to see what was going on. When the nurse came back to the room she told us the devastating news, that Sam had a tumor next to his heart and that his lungs were filled with fluid. I was just floored....I am still in shock. We had Sam for 4 1/2 years and he was...well how do I explain to you the love that he gave us....he was always there for me....he would lie by my side in bed when I was ill and after two major surgeries....he would eat, have is water, and just stay with me. I always said he was a gift from God and he truly was. Tonight this is what I have learned.....even after my Sam has passed away he leaves this last gift   ....

Friends and Flowers

Hi Blogging Friends, I wanted to share this lovely bouquet of flowers that was brought to my door this afternoon. My dear friend Maggie sent these to me for my birthday.....they are so Beautiful and Maggie is an absolute doll to think of me. I know we all talk about our friendships here in blogland that we have found, and I know we appreciate each other very much. My life has changed so much in the last 9 years. I have had many surgeries and things going wrong physically which limited me quite a bit. Since 2003 I have not been able to drive anymore and that in itself was a big blow to me. I inherited a rare disease of the corneas in which I have had multiple surgeries for over the years, hence no more driving. Well I can go on but I will stop there. The real point in all of this is I have been lonely and needed somehow to connect with people and then I discovered the World of Blogging!!  WOW...I never dreamed that I would meet such loving and caring folks....
