Special Delivery

Ten days ago my husband had the misfortune to have his tonsils taken out.  Given the state of his tonsils these past years it was unavoidable.  However, knowing it was a necessary procedure and surviving the painful recovery are two very different things entirely.

Shortly, after his surgery there was a flower delivery guy at out door with a lovely bouquet of sunflowers and a giant tub of fruit sorbet.  It was a special delivery from my friend, Cindy....all the way in Texas.  Texas!!!!

I like to think of myself as a crafty gal. But this, in my opinion, is a whole new level of crafty gumption.  There aren't words to express my appreciation.  I'll try anyway.  Thanks Cindy, you are the bees knees my dear.

Starting Over

After a month trying to get around what seems to be a general block on Typepad I am starting over.  So I am abandoning my former blog to start over.  Once I get the hang of blogger's way of doing things the blog will move to chicaenglish.com.  Until them my former blog remains the hapless victim of spam comments.  Poor ol' gal.  

Since I loathe wearing name tags or lengthy introductions lets leave it at I'm here and though not queer a bit odd...get used to it!  And come back!
