So I had posted on Sunday with pic from Victoria's Secret of the sweater my Elf got me, with a promise to put a pic of myself in the sweater once the Elf was reveled in package #2. Well, we only get our mail twice a month (it's two blocks away and we're lazy!) but I decided I needed a pick me up and that it was probably waiting for me. I was right. And what a wonderful pick me up!!
FarmerLynda sent me all things Penguin! (Which is what I collect). So aside from the beautiful sweater, I got a window cling, a new penguin ornament to add to my collection, a cute box it came in and such a sweet and thoughtful card!
Pics below of my wonderful stash.

And to FarmerLynda: Thank you doesn't seem enough for the thoughtfulness you put in to picking out my beautiful gifts and card. I teared up reading it. I am wearing the sweater today and it fits great and is very comfy! I too, am very hopefull that good things will "pop up" with my January cycle. Thank you so much!

Re: Thanks!!! To my awesome Elf: FarmerLynda!!
You are so very welcome! I had so much fun playing Santa and I'm glad it made your day -- I think the color looks even prettier than it did on their website!
The sweater looks beautiful on you. And I just want to say again... thank you for being such an important and wonderful part of this board. You are totally the board cheerleader, in the best way possible -- always cheering people up when they need it and saying the right thing. So on behalf of everyone you've cheered up at some point in 2011, right back atcha -- thank YOU!
