Puppy Toupee

My sistrah has the best timing ever. Bleys had to go out just now and when we stepped out of the door...there was a package sitting there. After taking care of business we came back in and I had a chance to look at the package. It was wrapped in brown paper, fairly heavy, and it was from Anne! I had no idea what might be contained within but it automatically made my day better just by being there. And by being wrapped in brown paper, there is just something about being able to unwrap a package. I set about to open the package and immediately had to admit defeat and go for backup. If you have ever gotten anything from my sister that was wrapped you might be aware of her predilection for tape. She is very...thorough when she wraps things. So I went for a pair of scissors and managed to hack my way through. Inside I found a note of top which was very nice and a great pick-me-up, some Halloweeny fabric (skulltastic), a sweet knitted wrap for the crazy temperature changes between outdoor and indoor here in Florida, and the best present of all, dance shoes! She got a pair of nice black dance shoes for her wedding and she sent them to me. I'm not sure what size they are but they fit! The left one is a teeny bit tight but as I affectionately refer to my left foot as my fat foot (slightly larger than the right) that's not suprising. The tightness is minimal and I don't think it will matter. It's a great present and I'm very lucky to have such a great sister. I miss her everyday.

I'm so happy that they fit! I figgered - hey, when am I gonna wear 'em again? Also I'm glad it was a good pickmeup package. I didn't think I used that much tape. :D

I like how your post titles are subletly related to your posts or sometimes unrelated in any way that the reader can tell. The puppy toupee is one of the best tricks our dog can do, and he doesn't even know it.
