how wonderful!!!

I'm kinda envious, but with guilt attached. My occasional surprise in our hard times is a gift card for true necessaries. Mom's are for my prescriptions since she's afraid I won't be able to afford the $100+/mo (yes, we have insurance) so not get them. Sis sends grocery store cards since her fear is that I will not get food. Whenever I visit, they pay my car's gas and absolutely any activity we do since if not, I couldn't come. They know I have nothing else to give up since our only entertainment expenses are tv, computer, piano (hubby) and quilting(me) and the joy of granddog petsitting, which is actually therapy. Maybe once they know we can handle our basics, they too will think to send me fabric.
So, I really understand your delight and gratitude and I'm happy for you.
