Pink Saturday/First,Fifth,Forever

I have never done different features on any of my post. However today. I am going to share two post for your enjoyment.





One is Pink Saturday with Beverly at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog.








I am not real sure what this is supposed to be. I think it is some type lamp. I saw it in an antique mall. Thought it was pretty and perfect for Pink Saturday.


This is a new post that Coloradolady has created for writing letters or sending cards that might make a difference in someone's life. It is called First, Fifth, Forever. Take time to stop by and share some of your great stories with her. Check it out at The Coloradolady.






I did not write a letter to anyone these past few days. However, I did send a thank you card.

THANK YOU is a lovely way to express gratitude to someone in a personal way. It is not practiced nearly enough.

Taking time to sit down and compose a note to express thanks is still a sign of good manners. No one is too busy to write a few lines on a card and drop in the mail. After all, someone found the time to go out and shop for you. You should always thank the gift giver, no matter how grandiose or seemingly insignificant the gift.

This is the thank you card I sent this week to a total stranger.

I met this person in a doctor's waiting room. Different ones were discussing things in their lives. This person was big into photography. They very kindly and generously sent me one of their photographs. I appreciate it so much that they would do something like this. Never saw them before and probably never will again.
