I came home from a busy day on campus to a mailbox (and doorstep) full of packages! I love getting mail :)
My new, and very pretty, checks arrived finally. With perfect timing too, I accidentally left my normal check book at home over the weekend and was checkless until today.
My dissection manual (that has been lost in the mail twice and that I've been waiting 6 weeks to get) came, miraculously in one piece. Now I can study in peace for my comparative exams on Friday.
Shoes!! I needed new everyday shoes for the spring, as my current everyday slip-ons are on the verge of death. I ordered the Terrain Janes from Lands' End - I love them and they are surprisingly comfortable on top of being cute! (I should also add, if you ever want to deal with customer service for a retail company this is the place to go. I had to get a different size in the same shoe last week. First I used their online chat function to find the difference in length between one size and a half size smaller. Then, I called to place a Return/ReOrder. Both of the ladies I worked with were both more than pleasant and super knowledgeable. Yay for great customer service!)
Yarn!!! I'm in the Guilty Pleasures / Good Karma Swap on Ravelry and won the week one contest. My prize was a lovely skein of blue/green sock yarn called "Under the Sea" made of Merino wool, Bamboo, and Nylon. Thank you Mspalmtree!
Swap Package from my $10 Swap partner. She spoiled me rotten! Who knew such a little box could hold so much stuff - it follows the good things come in small packages addage! My fave was the little pouch that she sewed herself; it is absolutley perfect and I will enjoy it everytime I use it. She also packed in some Simply Caron bamboo yarn in a great shade of green, Sugar and Cream in bright pink and a bunch of other goodies. Thank you jamierheller!
All that and not a bill in sight!
