I don't think even in my wildest dreams I could have imagined how much fun it is to be a part of Blogland and to meet so many truly wonderful people. There's not a day that goes by when I don't meet someone new or discover a really special blog that touches me in some way.
Bloggers are a special kind of people because they seem to have hearts as big as the world. Such is the case with Shop Girl. She has been a good friend to me here in Blogland....and she recently sent me the most fantastic gift. When I opened it, read her note, and saw what she made it just brought tears to my eyes.
It was a bit difficult to get a good photo of this bracelet but I hope you can see what she has made....that little charm holds the picture I drew that was in Artful Blogging magazine!! On the back is the letter J. Isn't that the most special thing for her to do?!! I will treasure this always. Thank you sooooo much.
I hope each and every person who ventures into my blog knows how much I appreciate all of you. Your comments, your emails, your thoughts, advice and help are always things I'm thankful for and look forward to each day.
A huge hug and thanks to everyone....and a special one for Shop Girl!!
That is so thoughtful! How wonderful for you. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful, personal gift for her to have given you. I am sure you will treasure it forever.
ReplyDeleteI recently "met" Shop Girl and I am pretty darn sure it was through YOUR blog! She is such a neat lady that I had to add her to my blog roll.
That is such a special surprise! I know you will always treasure it.
ReplyDeleteBTW - it's Friday Fill-in...

The bracelet is so beautiful Janet
ReplyDeletebut really you are such a nice person and one cannot help but to like you
That was very thoughtful of her to send you your picture in a bracelet.
ReplyDeleteI am finding blogland to be a wonderful place too. I tend to stay away from political blogs. Do you think I'd find the same caring there? I bet it's more with all the creative and sharing bloggers. Well, I like the "neighborhood" I've found myself in!
Janet, You are so welcome...you are a lovely Lady that I am so proud to call friend. Thank you for sharing it in your blog...you made it look so pretty.
ReplyDeleteGood-night Dear Friend.
What a wonderful gift! So thoughtful and personal.
ReplyDeleteBlogging has opened up such a lovely network of friendships for me too. And you are very high up on the list.
So pleased to see that blogging has brought special friendships your way. You deserve it as you are such a lovely person!
That was a sweet present. I love all my blogger friends too.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree, making blog friendships with a wonderful diverse bunch of people all over the world adds such a special new dimension to life! such a thoughtful gift from shopgirl!
ReplyDeletethanks for your comments on my "Have You Seen Me? post. Glad you liked it, Janet. I had fun doing it & that is what is important. And see... you could relate to it. I love blog land too. If I had not been blogging, I would not have met you or seen your beautiful artwork. I am very thankful for this.

I love blogland for many of the same reasons....this was a great post.
ReplyDeleteThree cheers for this and Shop Girl, too! I know what you mean about blogland. I started my blog in December and since then have had daily contact with creative and talented people from all over the world. And everyday I discover someone new (like you) and someone discovers me. It's a joyful, supportive, creative, and special community and I'm so glad I fell into it!
