Happy, Happy! hubby is coming home...

...just got a call that he is at the airport and will be taking the train to the ferry. I'll be off soon to the ferry but would like to post a note here incase i couldn't post the coming days. The children doesn't know yet so it will be a big surprise for them when they get home this afternoon/evening. I've no time for the draw at this minute so i will try before the weekend.
Thanks so much for all the well wishes for Chris. He is fine now and back to school. I think it was really from the cold and wet weather during their football match as they haven't been that exposed i mean not even for training the last couple of months.

A quick note about my surprise package.....
See these stash!!! It came in yesterday, i was expecting a package from Nita as she've mentioned it earlier that one is on the way to me but no idea what was in. Imagine my surprise when i opened it up. Thank you so much, Nita. I LOVE them all. You are all probably wondering why i receive such a generous gift, it started when Nita signed in for the 'grant a wish' that i offered last year but that she wants to send something back in return. That wasn't what i had in mind because i offered it freely and not expecting anything back. I was very hesitant with her generous offer so i didn't give my address when she was asking for it. It took a while before we did have a kind of agreement. Still i do feel guilty now but hope someday i'll be able to do something in return. Once again, Thank you so much Nita!
It seems most of my finishes lately were fobs! So glad this arrived safely to Edit! as it took a while... thought it was lost.

As always, i really appreciate your visits on my blog and THANKS so much for taking the time to leave me a comment. Wishing you all a wonderful week!
