Dear Secret Pal, thank you for all the gifts in the pretty Blue Box. That box looks very nice and was filled with well appreciated goodies. My son Mario was very eager to explore everything. He made me sharing one of the Milky Way eggs with him. Very tasty! He also things I could use the colourful post-it notes for writing notes to his elder sister, that he is allowed to watch TV. *gg* We both like the silver horseshoe and boots. Mario thought they are earrings. The blackwork Chickadee caught my eye right away. I love it and will soon start stitching it. I have not seen that kind of instruction for using just an outline for blackwork. I love that idea! The little book is very encouraging to me. - Lots of wonderful thoughts! The magnet frame perfect to hold our first grandbaby's picture, due in Sept.06 Mario wanted to try the sneaker socks, but I insisted, they are mine. *ggg* - It's his birthday in May, so I will wrap them up for him then. Thank you for everything and especially for your letter. You surely sound busy and I am looking foreward to your photos of the lace demonstations and your laces. Don't worry about the little delay. I had not even noticed that I was waiting for a SPP. Your parcel arrived already on Thursday. It was very quick, just 1 week. I am sorry that I did not write immediately. Live is a bit rough at present. My mother died at the end of March, aged 82. She didn't recover from a stroke 6 mths ago. So we feel it was best for her. But we still have to get used to the fact, that she is no longer here. Now I had to see a doctor about some problems with or near my thyroid. She sent me to see a specialist - which will be Mid-May. Apart from that we are keeping fine, having the last holiday weekend.
A big thank you and greetings from Germany, Martina To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
