Extra Special Good Mail

As you know, I had a love seat full of extra special, good mail when I got home from the "Spa" and inside the boxes and envelopes were some of the nicest thoughts - and oodles of laughs. I can't say thank you enough. I hope I've not missed anyone - if I have, please feel free to kick me in the rump.


Left-to-right, top-to-bottom: birthday card from Cindy, birthday card from my older brother and his family, A very cute get-well from Betty and Koda, get-well card from Rebecca, get-well card from an anonymous Orange Cone, autographed Tom Baker photograph, the Fourth Doctor Who, from Tori and Kelly.


A beautiful handmade get-well card from Punkn...


A hilarious audio card from LadyStyx... Don't forget to play the video!


A "double rainbow" card from my younger brother (inside it says, "I think I drank too much coffee")...


Life is Good t-shirt from my younger brother; a nifty handmade card, dog lover mug, and a British bird identification book (so now I'll know what those strange birds are in the photos that Tori sends me!) from Tori, Kelly and Kero; Hilarious Squirrel card and a way cool Spongebob nightlight from LadyStyx and Ranger; beautiful handmade card from Deanna, birthday card with super cool "invisible ink" letter from Rita; orange mints and York peppermint "flying saucers" from Parsley...


An eclectic "Those Darn Squirrels" book and some very nice cards from ChicagoLady; An Area 51/Roswell Space Alien and Welcome to Roswell with Orange Cones postcards and four "affirmation" cones (one of them Orange!) from Parsley; a very nice birthday card, comfy Camp Brule cap, an Orange Affirmation Cone (hey look! twins!) and some maps and news stories from upstate Pennsylvania from Alice Kay...


A closer look at those oh-to-cute affirmation cones and awesome Welcome to Roswell postcard!


A very nice Camp Brule T-shirt from Alice Kay and the Scuba Dude...and it fits perfectly too!


The Spongebob nightlight in action! It's so cool! It turns itself on when it gets dark!

I had the best "Spa" homecoming and birthday! Thank you! Thank you! Thank YOU!!!!

Deanna said...

You are definitely loved Ig! What a homecoming! Just don't make that Spa visit a habit just to get more homecoming goodies!


Huggggggssssss!

AliceKay said...

You have a lot of friends who care a lot about you, and you received a lot of nice things for your birthday. I'm with Deanna, tho...don't make that spa visit a habit just to get more homecoming goodies. :)

Hope you're having a good day today. *hugs*

Glad you got loads of great things from all your friends! :)

I'm with Deanna and AK; don't go making it a habit. We don't mind sending things, but we'd prefer you not to go through all the experience of the "spa" itself to get a pile of goodies!

Oh, and you're welcome from Kelly, Kero and myself! :)

Oh how wonderful to have such thoughtful friends! I can only imagine how nice it was to come home to that. Pretty darn special.

Pamela said...

That is crazy wonderful!
That talking squirrel card reminded me of the birthday card I got from my husband last month.
It was hoops & yo yo singing

Pamela said...

LadyStyx said...

Wow! Whatta lotta goodies!!

ChicagoLady said...

Cute shirt, Pamela! I have a Humuhumu shirt too!

Looks like you raked out, Iggy! Guess this confirms it. You are super special to a bunch of people.

betty said...

Looks like a lot of great things, Iggy! Just sorry you had to get a year older to get some of them and had a visit to the "spa" for the other ones! Loved the little cones!!

hope you have a great weekend!

Lucky you! What an awesome assortment of goodies :) Is it wrong that I would totally use that nightlight? Like, every night?

Rita said...

Well deserved!! The very thought of you giggling and smiling opening all your goodies just warms my Swedish cockels--LOL!

Glad you had a wonderful birthday and are feeling better, too!!! :):)

Just Stuff From a Boomer said...

Wow! You made a haul. Your spa visit was an awakening I think, that all those folks are thinking of you. You are loved for sure.

And I missed you too. Don't go back, okay?
