It was beautiful today.. Coolish..but beau!
It was also a special day..As I knew I would be meeting a friend IN PERSON..for the first time today!
We almost met about 1 year ago..but fate had it otherwise..
But this year..we had the opportunity to finally meet:)
I met Jayne today.. Jain and she had met already.. so I knew what to expect..
She is as nice and fun and pretty as Jain had said.What lovely people live in cyberspace!
What a nice girl!
It is amazing to me this internet.
I don't think I ever imagined I would actually MEET the people I grew to admire in written words..I have never ever been disappointed.
I can truly say..what you see.. is who you meet.
We had a lovely time together..and I hope to see her again.
Her eyes are blue like the sea:) like Jain's..
I ..on this eve of my American friends Thanksgiving..am very grateful I had this chance to meet .
That's my way today of Giving Thanks.~
She met us for lunch..
We needed a reminder of our link:)
Too cute and funny ..we both offered each other April~:)
I will be sharing with you in the future beautiful placemats and napkins.
All prettily wrapped w/ ribbons that I will keep ..she knows I like ribbon..
A frame..Vera B like my backpack..I think I will put us in it:)
4 mugs that J is crazy about..and the cutest little cappuccino stencils! World Market..
Look.. How can you not smile and have a good day?
Thanks for making my day special Jayne...and Jain:)(We chatted after!)
