Feeling Special



Monday I found a box in my mail box with the words Pollen Arts!! OH MY GOSH - I am doing the Happy Dance all the way back to the house. I could not wait to open it. You see I had the best thing happen to me - I won these lovely 100% Beeswax Candles from two amazing folks. I have been following them on their blog site www.thewinnebagodiaries.com for sometime now and LOVED each posting. I kept promising myself that one day I would purchase one of the incredible antique bottle candles. Then last week they announced on Facebook a give a way... I was feeling not very lucky but thought could I dare dream???


To enter you needed to write a Pet Peeve. O.K. Grace is not the sharpest pencil in the box some days and I really thought they meant "Like things your animals do that piss you off" - so I wrote about the humming bird dive bombing me in the morning as I slept and a few other stories which are normal things around here... I checked back in the day to read other posting and to my surprise I guess they were not talking about PETS, but like stupid things people do - wouldn't that be called Human Peeve?? What do I know, not much.. I felt really stupid but I also had no idea how to take my postings back so I figured that once again Grace stepped into it.


Imagine how thrilled I was to find out I was the grand prize winner - OH HAPPY DANCE... Not only did I win three of their incredible candles but P & J added a forth to my package. I must admit I was feeling really low and this just made my weekend. What a marvelous gift to get and to feel the love of such kind souls.


I would like to ask a favor please - could you please check out their shop www.pollenarts.etsy.com they are such amazing creators and such kind souls. They deserve our support if you can.


Again, THANK YOU Pollen Arts for make this gal feel so special

Candy I love the way they use old glass bottles - another one of my loves to look at. They smell so wonderful..

Caprejan - I lite one of the small ones at the end of my meditation sessions this week - trying to learn I deserve to enjoy the good things and not just hold on to them for someday...
