A big smile here!

 Dear friends,

Wish you knew just how much your nice and helpful comments have meant to me since I've been down with my back. I read, and take each one to heart, and appreciate your friendship so much. Thank you.

Yesterday I did call the orthopedic doctor to try and get my appointment moved up. They have nothing available, but promised to call if there is a cancellation. The appointment is March 30th, so at least we are down to less than a week now.

Believe it or not, yesterday was the first day that I really could feel an improvement. Even when Andee called, she said, mom, are you feeling better? Said she could hear it in my voice. Then I got a warning from Shelby to not go outside and do any work just because I was feeling a little better. Not to worry Shelby!!  :)

Before everything decided to go haywire around here, I had plans to make things pretty for Easter. Two baskets sit empty on the front porch table midst the other junk that has collected during my absence. I did hang the cute little bunny towels that Andee sent last year. I love the bunny print!

The mailman left a package at the door addressed to me...from Miss Lynn...

a little get well package filled with all kinds of fun stuff like vintage lace and buttons,  old newspaper ads and instruction sheets from vintage patterns, a really special elephant bracelet made by Lynn, and a pretty night shirt from Andee. There was good smelling lotion and a bag stitched up by Lynn and this very old print of a girl in a swing...

.

should have taken a picture when I first opened the package...cause not everything is shown here. Aren't surprises fun! One day last week, Andee drove down from Virginia just to spend a few hours with me, then drove the three hours back home. What ever would I do without these two sweet daughters, and a sister like Shelby, and special friends like you. 

Okay, I'll hush now. 

Love,

Henny
