I got up early today for a trip to the dentist. I guess I was nervous because I got up REALLY early. I made it to my destination with an extra 20 minutes to spare and picked up some donuts for the ladies there. They've seen me at my worst - some very down times and a very thick personal file - just a small thanks for how nice they are. And some good karma too if you believe in the "what goes around comes around" because I have a clean bill of health - no cavities. I will be going forward with a crown next week - something I couldn't afford to do when I should have. One dental emergency at a time - and the implant took priority. :)
Moving forward.. it makes me realize how little things make a huge difference - a small thank you .. a little note. I'm playing along at CASology today - their cue word is Umbrella - and while it is the perfect fit for showers of gifts, it's also a perfect little pick me up - and I'll be ready the next time I recognize when a little hug in the mail might be in order!
Ahhh the power of three! In my favorite colors of course! Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteGiven my terror of dentists (quite severe, actually), I'm applauding your courage in even stepping foot in the office! Great to hear the appointment went well and oh my! What a sweetheart you are to treat the gals to donuts! Yes..karma! Thank you for the reminder about the power of the 'little' things and as card-makers, we have plenty of little things to brighten someone's day. I need to start mailing more of my creations, just because! You, my friend, are certainly a ray of sunshine in my life...hope you know that! Love your umbrella card...sweet, sophisticated, heart-warming!
