I woke up to a sunny morning to find a surprise from Handyman leaning against the fireplace. My sweet heart is such a nut! Ever see the original Miracle On 34th Street? If you remember the end of the movie, there is a scene where John Payne and Maureen O'Hara visit an empty house for sale. They spot a walking cane propped up next to the fireplace as little Natalie Wood runs through the house looking in each room. The cane was just like the one Santa had carried - well, guess what was leaning against our fireplace?

Yup, a cane! Has it come to this!? Ha Ha! I had to laugh! When you are limping and your knee hurts it helps to have a sense of humor - gotta laugh or cry. At least I am getting around now and not rolling around the house in our office chair! The cane really helps.
My day was made even sunnier by a package on our porch. This little treasure was part of the contents.
Isn't it exquisite? It is a work of heart from my dear friend A Sassy Scrapper. If you haven't seen her work you are in for a treat. She has another one of these charming burlap hearts featured in her January 2013 post. Her penmanship is lovely. She personalized the back for me and I have this hanging on a peg in our kitchen right now. My day was a special blend of love from two thoughtful people~

It does help to have a sense of humor! It's good the cane has come in handy, too. Beautiful heart! You're right, she does have a lovely handwriting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty heart and lovely surprise to wake up to. I love the cane humor. No matter what is going on, life is so much easier to swallow with a daily dose of humor.
