Deb sent Joy a "Get Better Soon" package from New Zealand!!






Joy was thrilled to receive her very own package from Deb at Works in Progress. Deb sent this to help Joy feel better as she is recovering from her broken ankle. Joy has looked and looked at her magazines, and has almost completed her felt cat. Deb, that was so thoughtful of you. Joy couldn't wait to tell her friends that she had received a package from Christchurch, New Zealand!
An update on Joy's ankle. We went to the doctor today. They cut off the cast and did a new X-ray. Everything was looking good, and she now has a cast that she can remove for bathing or swimming. I am excited that I don't have to put the plastic trash bags on her cast anymore for showers. :-D
BTW, the candy did not last long at all! It was so good - I had a taste of it myself. The kids devoured it. LOL
I hope you are having a good week. It is almost the weekend, and I am really ready for it. I plan to go to Atlanta Saturday and visit Little Quilts and Red Hen. Fun!!

What a thoughtful gift. And I do remember a child with a cast: what a pain. LOL

I'm so happy Joy likes it, seeing her face makes it worth it. As she missed her special trip to NY, maybe she should plan a trip to NZ and come and visit us. I'm sure we could arrange it!! Start saving honey xx

How very lovely of Deb to do this. Lucky Joy! I'm amazed at how quickly she is recovering. It's so nice to be young and resilient. This is excellent.
