Surpise from the UPS guy

Yesterday was a really good day. Nick was back to school after a day of rest because of a sore leg (???) and I was home alone. I got lots done, you know the usual for a SAHM (that's stay at home mom for those of you who don't know the lingo) cleaning bathrooms, folding laundry, cooking meal, etc. I went out to do some errands and arrived home at the same time the UPS guy was delivering a package to our house. I should say a HUGE package. Nick got the box from the driver (I think he was hoping it was something for him) and lugged it into the house. What could it be? I'm alway suspicious of packages, especially if I don't know where they came from - what if it's a bomb, or filled with an undentified white powder? Check the return address I told Nick just to be safe. It said, "Thank you for your order". I didn't order anything, what can it be. After a closer look I saw that it came from Suffield, CT and the address was EDM. Ok, now I know. That's my good friend Arlene's family business address - they sell lawnmowers. Great, they're sending me lawn equipment, my next door neighbor Ed must have told them we're not keeping up with the neighborhood. Ok, let's open it and get to work on the lawn. Nick grabbed the scissor and sliced the tape. One, two, three and the box was opened. Suprise!!! No lawn equipment, not even close. The box was filled with presents. LOTS of presents. All wrapped up and glittery. I've taken a picture so you all can see what my good friends in Longmeadow sent to me. Now, if it had been lawn equipment I would have been happy, if it had been just the note I would have been happy. I was just happy that they were thinking of me. I started to cry. Nick looked at me? Why are you crying if you got so many presents he asked??? He's already a typical guy. They just don't get it!!! I want to say thank you to all my friends and family who have been so supportive to me. Whether you call, stop by, ask John how I am, send food or presents it is all SO very appreciated. That's all for now!
