This woman KNOWS how to make sure I'm happy

Who might you ask? My lovely friend Jerusha. She does love me.

She let me know yesterday that she put a little something in the mail to me on Saturday. I was damn nearly giddy as a 6 year old on Christmas morning. I kid you not. She is in LA so I was fully expecting not to see anything until Tuesday. When I got home, l and behold there was something in my mailbox! It was dark but I could not see what it was. It was just a soft white packing envelope. But, I knew instantly it was from Jerusha. It was squishy.

Much to my dog's chagrin, I did not feed him the minute I got in the door. I ran for the kitchen shears to cut that package open. I gasped when I saw the contents. First, she took care of my Poodle (for anyone not aware, this my pet name formy daughter.) She sent her a Disney Princesses DVD. Excellent. So this means that after I pick her up from school today, I can make dinner in peace as she will be glued to said DVD. I have already told her that she has a present waiting from Aun' 'Rusha. Sidebar: Somehow Jerusha has gotten credit for giving my daughter a whole array of presents that did not, in fact, come from Jerusha. I have NO idea how this happened...

Then for me... Two skeins of the most gorgeous, soft, hand dyed Malabrigo yarn made in Uruguay in a rich garnet color. I hugged them. I put them in my neat little new yarn basket but picked them up several times last night just to fondle them. Note: I really must take a picture of the basket of yarn because the mere site makes me 18 kinds of warm, fuzzy and happy.

I called her to thank her and asked her to what do I owe this spectacular gift. She saidbecause no one should NOT have some Malabrigo in their yarn stash. Seriously. Then she tells me that flights prices have dropped between LA and Phoenix and she's checking dates. Umm hell yeah! Jerusha weekends are basically the two of us up until the wee hours talking and knitting and drinking vodka. Many times there has been really bad reality TV. We have always said her visits are not complete until Nick Carter cries. It's just the pinnacle of the weekend.

I am one happy happy chica.
