so cute it hurts & PPF #13

... bought the sweetest 'believe' brooch from Jacqueline Low (so cute it hurts) on Etsy. I had to sign for my sweet little package and was not home the day my mail carrier tried to deliver. So it was off to the post office the next day. Opened my little treasure in the parking lot of the post office and couldn't believe all the love, care and inspiration that poured out of that tiny package from Malaysia. Okay ... so now I am actually crying in the parking lot of the post office because it was the perfect message for me on that day and Jqline is so incredibly talented and so very sweet!


"may this 'I believe' brooch always remind you

of the sweet sentiment to believe in yourself ..."
so i met with my boss and told her i was wearing my 'i believe' brooch, because "i believe you can get me a team leader", i said, ... she laughed (don't think that's going to happen) ... Oh well ... it's all about what i believe and
"i still believe" (not about the team lead part though) ... anyways, thank YOU Jqline so very much!


... oh the paint part ... here are some old barrel staves i had Rog cut into arrows and i painted some of my favorite places along with how many miles (as the crow flies) that it would take me to get there ... OZ is right over the rainbow!


if you haven't been to the party yet today,

head on over to PPF ... great stuff going on there!

    Care packages ALWAYS come at the best time don't they? Loved your story at the Post Office. I love when art touches others and ourselves. HAPPY PPF!
