Ohhh, the book...what a treasure! I think any reader would be ecstatic to get such a thing.

I hope 09 is a better year for you!

Hugs, Beth

good things come in unexpected packages.


09 is on the upswing. i have decided that it will be 'my' year but you can have some of it too.

i'm so jealous you got that fantastic BOOK. it sounds like you did well this christmas, full of treasures near & dear to the heart.

happy new year, my friend.

I'm so glad those who love you didn't listen to you, but showered you with wonderful tokens of their love that brightened your days.

How fast did Santa's Harley go? ;o)

Santa on a Harley... Yeah, it could happen. I remember a Christmas Eve many moons ago that I spent with Santa.... Er... uh... Never Mind! LOL!

All of your presents sound fantastic, but I think the overnight carry case sounds like it is right down your alley. How wonderful your parents thought of it, AND how much you would love having it.

So good to hear from you again! I'm glad you amassed so many treasures for Christmas - we should all be so lucky! Happy New Year

Hope your 2009 is wonderful and full of promise.

I'm glad that you had a lovely Christmas.

Santa on a Harley huh? lol

When you get older, as I am, there isn't anything you really want in the material sense. It's so true, why don't folks believe that and just accept it? This year my husband and I actually honored each other's request not to get presents. We gave each other a card. There's many people I know who could use the money, and so I gave to them. Felt much better than getting some jewelry or perfume that I didn't need. Your gifts sound lovely...true treasures. Happy New Year! bea

Wonderful post as always Rebecca. You have a beautiful way of stringing words together and touching hearts with them. I hope that 2009 is a much better year for you. :-)

Two people? Oh, dear; I'm so sorry, Rebecca. And it doesn't help to have that "significant" negative, either, no doubt, but that'll fade away more readily, I suspect. Enya sings of angels of joy and of grief and of other things, Christmas angels, and yes, there is both in its present and passing. This new year is, well, new. May you receive even more treasured gifts (which can include hugs and smiles and blessings). Here's a virtual eggnog-less toast to you (but hey, cool dream sans the vomiting part). :) -- Robin

Wonderful...I love to read the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson. What a superb gift. Glad you had such a wonderful Christmas. Wishing you the very happiest New Year. May all your dreams come true.

Hello! I adore shiny objects. There goes one now!

Twirl, the story you stumbled on, is about a young cowboy and ballerina who are your typical star crossed lovers. If you click on the dancing category, you can start reading their stories from the beginning. I'm working on getting it organized on my site now!

The unexpected is always a wonderful surprise, and all the more cherished. Your words express that so well.
I hope you have a wonderful New Year, full of cherished surprises.

Hugs, Leigh

I think I had a better than expected holiday because I had such low expectations to begin with.

You have me my gift, in a big manilla envelope, in October, though I am sure you did not think of it as a traditional gift. I have shared it with many since.....thank you.

Ok, not have..GAVE. :-)

The greatest gift I received this year was that of family, friendship and love. Oh, I know it sounds cliche', but I am swimming in riches that have absolutely NOTHING to do with money.

I love how delighted you sound and how much your treasured gifts meant to you and touched your heart at the time you recieved them, as well as how much they will mean to you for a lifetime.

I too, have been remiss in my journal visits... We must be who we are and do what we do, and those who love us want to hear all about it when we reappear, not hold it against us.

Thanks for being one of those people.

::hug::

Wow, you really did receive treasures this Christmas - they'll bring you lots of joy.

I hope 2009 is a wonderful, rich and joyful year for you.

Ah I had wondered if it's arrival had been intact. It was new to me as well. Something kept in secrecy even from Paul until the Eve. I needed him to be my ears.

You and me both dear heart in the midst of shadows of 2008. I have a feeling 2009 is the year I find my freedom and forgive the one who needs it most, myself.

You showed me the lock all I needed was to find the key within myself. Someday soon I'll elaborate and share what I mean by that.

The gifts priceless. All heartfelt, all to be envied. Here's to 2009! May this year smile on us both in beauty and spirit! I've missed your words, last night I read through that priceless parcel of random I have of yours. From miles away came comfort in the unexpected.(Hugs)Indigo

Your appreciation for your gifts - simple and priceless - is a joy in my day.

I wish you a happy 2009.

Wow! Your writing is crisp, witty and very refreshing.

The great thing about a new year is that it's new, so we get to start anew. This will be the year that you get to say, "Well done, Rebecca."

No, I'm not really Pollyanna but I do a pretty good imitiation of her. I figure that if I keep it up long enough, I may start to believe myself.

Wishing you joy in 2009.

Wishing you a great new year! Hugs TerryAnn

Hi Rebecca! Happy New Year! Sorry, it's 15 days old but I'm pulling a Rebecca myself!. My computere's been acting up and I'm in and out like a fog.
