Care Package

 Yesterday I was having a bad day-a very bad day. Everything was going wrong from the minor (dead laptop) to the major (95 year old MIL in hospital) and things in between (cat abscess). Daddio also had a dreaded late afternoon doctor's appointment so I was rushing about when I dropped a giant container of his favorite bean soup all over the floor. At the very moment that I was looking at the mess in disbelief, The Mister came in with a package.


Blog friend elns had sent me a big surprise. Inside were seriously fabulous bandaids...


 ...and things for pampering.


 The biggest surprise of all was this precious Felici. Who could part with this hard to find, now discontinued favorite? I have no words.....


As for Daddio's doctor's appointment, I took Olaf along for the ride. I do a lot of knitting in the waiting room and it was fun to look down and see him smiling back. It made all the difference.

Thank you elns. You are simply the bestest!!!!!

    How fun! I had no idea there are so many Band-Aid choices! That yarn should make some great socks. You're right, elns is very nice. I hope today is a better one!
