My Stressful Week and Relaxing Treat

My family knows to stay out of my way when I have a dentist appointment coming up. I'm such a baby.... My dentist's mother used to have to come to my car and bring me in....then sit with me...holding my hand and giving me Kleenex. Now he just gives me a "happy" pill to take an hour before I go. But, that does not help my family the week before I go! I try to stay very, very busy!!! So Tuesday I had a sewing lesson, followed by a shopping trip, then I came home to find this...
My "Take time to Relax" swap gift!!! I was not very relaxed at this point so I decided to save it for my after dentist reward! I had to earn it!
Wednesday I went to the dentist and slept the rest of the day....after effects of the happy pill???? or relief that it was over???
This morning I remembered the box!!! Yay!!! Just look at the goodies!

A handmade tote (more about that later)...new magazines (for the bathtub- later) and the most wonderful Amish Cinnamon Bread!!!!
Here you see the bread (2 pieces missing) that will not last to see another morning once the Kids get home. I sat down and ate the two pieces like a wild animal- remember I had no solid food yesterday- It was so good! Thank you so much Amanda! You really made my day!!! Your box is on the way- I had to finish something at my sewing class Tuesday!
And the tote- so cute- when I went to my sewing class I couldn't find my old "teacher" bag to carry my supplies in. So I carried them in a Wal-Mart bag! Oh the shame! I hid it under the table! And the door prize was a cute little sewing tote.....I didn't win...So this will be my official Sewing Class Tote Bag! Love it!
One more thing- Karma- my fear of the dentist has made it full circle! Son #2 has just announced his engagement. He will be married in December -TO MY DENTIST'S DAUGHTER!!!!!! Truly-she is lovely and I am so excited for them!
