One of Santa's Little Elves....Stopped By The Rabbit Hole....a Sweet Surprise!

Had a Lovely Surprise...today... One of my Sweetest Friends, stopped by.... with Treasures, in tow... {Santa's Elf...I am sure...} She left all sorts of Gifts...{a Book for Scarlett...Christmas Ornaments... little Figurines..} after she left...I started going through them.... oh my.....the little Bisque, Rabbit Match Safe... nearly dropped me....it reminded me, of the Rabbit Hole, and... The Mad March Hare...Pegadoo... {she was taken to the hospital, last night.... spiked a fever... they are keeping her, until tomorrow...at least...she'll be fine...}
The Little Elf, handed me a Gift Bag...and said..."Merry Christmas!"... inside...was this Amazing Pudding Mould... with, what looks like a Poinsettia... embossed.... oh my....
Then...to make things...even More...Amazing... she harvested this OVER THE TOP!!!!! Early 1900's Fringed...and Beaded!!!! Lamp Shade.... at an Auction for me....{to sell} I have the base.... but... I gotta tell ya...the Shade..is already in the house.... {oh my...I'm running on fumes... financially....have no business keeping anything...{I will be selling things, from the house...in the next week, or so...} but...this shade... well... I'll be like Steve Martin in 'The Jerk'.... as they throw me to the curb...} "all I need is this chair...that's all I need.... and this lamp...{shade} that's all I need... this chair...and this lamp...{shade}"  oh my...
My Little Elf, friend.... is really..an Angel...and...like with my Peg.... I feel so inadequate... how, does one....ever repay such kindness.... This isn't the first time, this Angel....has come my way.... I truly feel Blessed... I Truly..do.....
I take Mom, in for her surgery, tomorrow... it will be a Long Day...but...a Good Day...
Love to You...and Yours...
