Some readers have sent me children's books and I have sent out some as well (even to Singapore). Blogging really establishes a wonderful community out of a group of people who were once strangers.

It was one where you are supposed to "make" something for the person and I still haven't made anything. <br /><br />Every so often I will think of something that I could make and then I think that would be a terrible gift to give away, and who would want that anyway. So what happened was that the person who "I" was supposed to make something actually ended up making a gift for me and she decided that I could send her a gift whenever I figure something out, no matter how long it takes. <br /><br />But in my defense I did undergo my shoulder surgery just after that and I seem to have never fully recovered. Although I could do an easy project but I guess I would need to go to a craft shop and find an easy one sometime.<br /><br />But maybe I should just do the thing of paying for someone's meal and do it in her name. But I also wonder because I have so much "stuff" in my house that maybe when I come across something worth giving away (of which there are tons) that maybe I should just send that, you know a "White Elepahnt" pay it forward. Or maybe I should just start a "White Elephant" give away sometime, but I wonder if anyone would like any of my "stuff".<br /><br />Oh and I like how you changed the rules. Rules are made to be broken, at least bloggy rules are.<br /><br />God bless.Mrsupolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563854387767106508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-14114123875604851882011-03-29T03:47:58.535-04:002011-03-29T03:47:58.535-04:00A wonderful artist named Isabella gave me a beauti...A wonderful artist named Isabella gave me a beautiful little collage and she asked me to pay it forward...so I sent out two collages to other artists.
