I Love SP8

Wow! Is all I can say!
I went to my mailbox before driving up my lane, which sometimes seems like miles but it is only about a half mile long!
Anyhow, in my box I find my basic boring mail and 2 packages. I retrieve all of the boring stuff and try to pull out the packages. One comes out nicely, the other...well, it seems so jammed in there. I have to move my car back and actually get out. This thing is so heavy...I realize that my kooky husband has bought a 50# weight vest so he can train to be a Super Fireman! Ok, finally I wrestle it into the back seat of my car. Well, in my struggle to get this thing in my car, I am completely ignoring the other mail (Ok, some of it I always ignore!) And start the drive up the lane.
In the house I realize (Yes, I left the heavy thing in my car...Why repeat that ugly scene? He'll be home soon...and if he wants to walk around with this goofy thing so be it! He will bring it in!) the other package is for me. (Now mind you my SP* did email me and tell me a surpise was coming...but do I remember, nope!) So I am opening what I think is a pair of sweatpants I had bought. Yep, boring sweatpants....Nooooo, I find this!
Wow!
I am in love!!!! Wow, I have looked at the Crayon from Knitpics so many times, wondering if I would like it and what it would feel like. And bam! There it is in my box...and I love the colors of Noro. And a new music Cd...I like music, but the other 2 humans in my house are like obsessed with it. So rarely does Mom get to just listen to her own and who has time to find new stuff! I do, because I have a buddy!
And the chocolate...well, it makes everyone's day good! And there was a bath fizzy from Lush...I cannot wait to lock them all out and try this out! I love bath's, there is never enough time for them! And this smells so good!
I am really just gushing here! But wow! I am so hoping that my buddy likes her package just as much! I am almost finished putting it together!
I was gushing about my package when my husband asked who it was from...now, like all good husbands he tends to block me out when I start talking about yarn and such. When I re-explained that I have a SP. You could not believe the look I go and the lecture that was following about talking to unkown people on the internet! I was dying!
It was like the same talk we had with the 14yo...only I found this funny! So again I had to re-explain...I was dying! Of course, the 14 yo had to put in her 2cents(Hey, where is the cent sign! Someone stole it!) Too funny!
