Life is full of peaks and valleys. I am a person that is usually inclined to hang out on the peaks but last week I slid down down down into that valley of frustration and exhaustion. I plunked down on the couch and sat there head in hand ready to admit that this was NOT a happy day WHEN.............Ta Da! The mailman came to my door with a package.

Ok. Things are looking up. I take a little look to see who it's from and then let out a squeal! It's from MeMyself, direct from Indiana. I rip it open and the glorious scent of lavender comes pouring out. All sorts of delicous smelling goodies to make my bathroom a peaceful haven. Included is an adorable card with a hunky young man on the front, MeMY certainly knows how to raise a girl's spirits!

And. And. As if that isn't enough....There is another package in there for me. All the way from Australia! Two treats. Fig and Fennel Paste and Daintree Tea. I believe that I am going to be the proper lady of Society when I indulge in those. Maybe best of all is an adorable little card with roses adorning the front and Lucy's artistic handwriting gracing the inside. Simply lovely.

Ok. I'm standing back on the peaks! Doing a little happy dance and marveling at how small and lovely the internet has made the world. How I can have sweet friends reaching out to me from just about everywhere.

I thank you both. You are lovely people.  XXOO  Woman

    they should call that box the Happy Box.  It really seems to cause happiness wherever it goes.

    Uni! Indeed. It certainly put ME back on the right path.

    It was my pleasure, without a doubt. You always have so much love that you pass around here sooooo.... glad you are on your peak, you deserve it! xoxo

    This makes me smile.  :)  It was a happy day when the box arrived at my house a while back.  So glad to see it's still making its way around the country.

    I agree with Uni, that box should seriously be called the Happy Box!  That was one of the best ideas ever and I remember that extra kick and boost I got when I received it.  Definitely something to be repeated every once in a while on a 'mystery' basis.  :-)
