    Smile Gifts from my neighbor

    My neighbor came down the other day, she's moving and wanted to give me some items

    Here's what she gave us:

    1. a turkey/fall platter : ceramic
    2. six houseplants
    3. two packs of batteries : AA
    4. a bag of misc sewing supplies
    5. a new package of gardening twine
    6. 6 grocery bags of canned items, frozen items, pantry staples and so on.

    Nice huh? I really appreciate all the stuff. Although it was bitter-sweet because I am going to miss her terribly. She was the only friend i have in the neighborhood.

    That was so thoughtful of her. Sorry to hear your friend is moving though. Maybe you'll make a new friend with whoever is moving in.

    Aww how sweet of her. Sorry to hear she's moving, will she be going far? Hope this is a new beginning for her, she's had alot of problems in the past with "the jerk". I am thinking about the same woman right? I wish her well & hope your new neighbor is a nice lady too.

    Yeah same woman. I am hoping she gets as far away as humanly possible, maybe even another state- - for her own sanity and safety. But, still i will miss her.

    That was really nice of her to share all of that with you. I hope you two will be able to at least keep in touch online or through letters.
