To spare you all of my boring details I'm going to sum it up by saying this past week for me was one from H-E- double hockey sticks, if you know what I mean. (Which is why I haven't posted this week). By yesterday afternoon I was feeling spent, physically and emotionally. My son brings in the mail and there is a package for me, a package I had no idea was coming. I look at who sent it and I see it was from Cely, one of my blog friends. Not long ago Cely was a winner of my blog candy. Now Cely lives in Hawaii and as a joke I told her I needed to find a box big enough to hold a gift card and myself before I could send it out. Cely replied that maybe she could send Hawaii to me instead. Now fast forward about three or so weeks and I had completely forgotten about our exchange of emails. So I open the package Cely sent and would you believe, she did send Hawaii to me! Cely had sent me packages of a variety of Macadamia nuts, a package of an Hawaiian coconut pudding and the most beautiful card that she made. I can not even describe just how much that random act of kindness lifted my spirits! Not to mention my love of what she sent! Cely at http://hawaiipaperparty.blogspot.com/ , you my friend are one classy lady. Thank you so very much for your thoughtfulness. Please know that your random act of kindness meant so much to me. {{{{BIG HUGS}}}.

Don't you love that picture of her? I crack up everytime I see it! I had to share this story with you all because I thought that this is such a wonderful thing we could all maybe start to do. Everytime I send out blog candy I hold on to the addresses in case I ever have to send them candy again. So in honor of Cely, I am going to make it a point once a month to just send a blog buddy something out of the blue in hopes that it will do for that person what Cely did for me. It could be anything, a "thinking of you" card, anything really. The smallest gestures can have the biggest effect on others.
I hope you all have a great weekend and a wonderful Easter! Thanks for stopping in! And Cely, thank you again for turning my frown upside down!
Susan
