By BuxomM,
____________________________________________________
thank you for the ecard! I'm excitedly waiting and stalking the package & mailman in between final projects. I broke in the new house's shower with the paintbox stuff you sent me. My dad and brother loved the scent of Nekisse, but they didn't want to try "girly" products *giggle*. I just finished the last of the bluberries. I've been showing off my knee socks. I hope you are well ;-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for the birthday wishes! I sent my new addy to the switch witch account so they can give you my new addy. Best wishes witch. I'm at the new house making use of all the wonderful gifts you've given me.

the dried blueberries are gone, used in oatmeal and as a snack for class. now I think I'll do toast with pickled blueberries and some greek yogurt. The nights are getting colder (days are still pretty hot), so the socks are keeping me warm. I can't wait to wear them under my boots & with skirts & mary Janes.

Wow!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I still haven't used my GC yet (i'm eyeing some rainbow knee highs, black & red stripe over the knee, red cable knit knee highs & debating between red fishnets or skull over the knee socks). You annihilated my paintbox wants. I was hoping I'd get enabled with blueberry jam, but doubting it could be done. This is all above and beyond my wildest dreams. I am a very happy witchee *eating dried blueberries, petting my box of soapbox plunder, watching Sleepy Hollow on the DVR, and getting ready to plow back into my textbook when it's done* i hope life is treating you very well.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for the card witch ;-) for some odd reason it just showed up in my iphone mail. No pressure for contact. I'm fine with a ninja, if that's you. I know you're out there lurking. *squee*
