Can't wait!
I get to stalk the UPS man next week! Got to talk to a wonderful woman I met when I got hooked on crocheting. Admittedly Vicki lives on the opposite coast, but she is such a sweet, loving person that has always made me smile (and my heartache for her medical issues and what her family has gone through the last couple of years). But out of the generousity of her heart she is sending me a box of yarn and fabric to help keep me busy and pad my almost non-existant stash. Admittedly her hubby has threatened to take stuff to goodwill if she doesn't get rid of it, so I am one of the very lucky recipients of her yarn and fiber holic tendencies. Also please send some positive prayers/thoughts our way. After months of applying for jobs and getting nowhere Michael finally has an interview tomorrow (Friday). It is only 24 hours a week to start, but if he gets it that is that much more money we have to make sure our basic bills are paid and the girls have the extra milk & such they need to stay healthy. I had something else on my mind, but am blanking at the moment. But I have plans for that box...she is sending some flannel and baby yarn so I can make the soon-to-be mom of twin girls some blankets, burp cloths and little kimonos & wash cloths. I've been in her place with having nothing and a little one on the way and I was blessed by my Texas co-workers with a no longer needed crib, bedding, some sleepers and blankets and diapers and wipes, so I'm going to do what I can with this gift box to help her out (don't know her name, she is a friend of someone we got to know well, whom I've given baby girl stuff to for her 5 month old). Enough rambling...just a bit nervous for Michael and praying he gets this job since we really need the income.
