An Apology and TWO Thank Yous!

     I owe a HUGE apology to one of our bloggy sisters! I would like to blame my temporary lapse in courtesy on being new to the blog world but that is no excuse for forgetting etiquette! You see, a few weeks ago Nan of Retired in Alaska wrote to tell me that I was her One Hundredth Follower and she wanted to send me a little giftie. About a week later a package arrived in the mail containing the most wonderful book. Yes, I sent her an email and thanked her but it never occurred to me to post on my own blog until I noticed other bloggers doing so when they received a similar reward. So Nan, I hope you will accept my apology and my sincerest thanks! So without further ado....

Thank You Nan of Retired in Alaska for sending me this wonderful book for being your One Hundredth Follower! The book is about a wonderful lady who devoted her life to taking care of the Bald Eagles in Alaska. She did so faithfully until she passed on to her greater reward!

     The second Thank You goes out to Elizabeth of  

Creative Breathing! I mentioned in a comment on Elizabeth's blog that I had a hard time finding felt where I live. So what did E do? Why of course she sent me a piece of felt in the most beautiful shade of Blue! If you have never been to Elizabeth's blog, drop what you are doing and get over there but be prepared for inspiration overload!

     I've only been blogging for two months and already I am amazed at the generosity and kindness and inspiration shown by so many bloggers. I am so happy I began this journey and now scratch my head wondering what took me so long to get started!
