There were two surprise boxes.
The first one was from–wait. That’s her, right? That’s her married name. Right? North Carolina? I think that’s right. But why? What?
It was from an old friend whom I’d long wished I hadn’t lost touch with, whose married name I had no idea of or even if she was (she was), who saw some comment on a mutual old high school buddy’s Facebook post and grabbed the chance to connect and we were both so glad to find each other again.
She had made me a quilt. In the time since we’d found each other around I think Christmas.
While recovering from a broken wrist. And it is gorgeous, and cheerful, and happy-making, and I am so blown away. Wow doesn’t begin to cover it. I will treasure it the rest of my life. Thank you, Susan.
The other box. Let me see about some details and I’ll get back to you on that one.
