TWO THANK YOU'S on Tuesday...

Ok---

so I've been feeling a wee bit lot sorry for myself...

more doctor issues...

more waiting...

more worry...

it seems I am being slammed on all sides

in all ways, shapes and forms...

and then

to top it all off

Theresa (aka the girlfriend who saves my sanity...)

 went out of town

(so's my hubby but that's another story!)

for a week!

But today...

today not only did she e-mail and say

she was home----

the UPS man just showed up at my house--

6+ PM...

I heard the truck.

I went downstairs and sure 'nough...

there's this box with my name on it...

(the cat got in after I opened it!)

I was expecting a small padded envelope-

not this huge box---

Ya see,

I had another craft tool mishap...

the little cutter thingy

on this one...

keeps falling out when I lift the "arm"...

so I e-mailed the company

and asked what to do...

(I have both styles of their cutters

and LOVE them!)

And a very nice man named STEVE

e-mailed me and said...

he thought he had extra of the part I needed

and what was my shipping address...

I sent it...

and fast forward to today...

and---drum roll please....

I GOT THIS...

an entirely NEW CUTTER!
I am SOOO IMPRESSED!

What AWESOME customer service & satisfaction.

Take note, Mr. Holtz (insert boo and hiss here!)

So if you are shopping for paper cutters---

just start here!

And, along the same lines...

I am remiss in sending THANK YOUS

to Lucy

and to

Sandy at Crafty Secrets

Lucy hosted blog candy for

a $ 60 shopping spree

with Crafty Secrets

and I WON!!!

Better yet--it was for products of

my own personal choosing!

And, again, on a day when I really needed

a pick-me-up...

the blog candy arrived--thanks to Sandy...

a lot of these are DOUBLE SIDED!!!

SO MUCH STUFF!

 all kinds of vintage goodies---including stamps!!!

I cannot wait to have time to sit down and create with them!

Check out their products and their design team blogs---

LOTS of awesome stuff!

So--

I feel a little bit better about things.

Saying Thank You---and having things to say

thank you for---

means a lot.

Like my inside kitties

who know Momma's been out of sorts

and have been sticking close-

particularly through some rough nights...

they know....

Tomorrow is going to be wide-open crazy for me

so don't look for too much craftiness

in the next few days...

but don't give up on me!

I'll be back!

Until then,

happy stamping and scrapping!

Blessings,
