Hyperventalating

The tea kettle above is one I've obcessed over for years. I actually dragged Chris to the Lennox Square Mall in Atlanta because it was the only place that I could see it south of NY.
Over the years I've looked at it at Neimans then Val got a little colonder from her mother-in-law in that pattern and it renewed my crazy obcessive want but I could never bring myself to spend $125 on somtthing so frivoulous.

A few days ago I made it my profile pic on BC. Covert commented on it and I told my obcession story.

Yesterday the Fed Ex girl came and I casually opened a box and almost fainted to find the tea kettle in front of me.
A BC friend, flossie771 Marcia Vaughn. said she was sending me a gift but I expected a wishlist book. I couldn't believe she saw my story and bought me my obcession. She said she felt compelled to buy it and she went with her feelings. She said SHE was blessed to be able to get it for me. I can't stop crying over her generosity.
I give to my friends on BC and try to do random good deeds like paying for the person behind me at McD;s or Starbucks in the mornings (gave my last $2 to a homeless guy on DeZavala just 1/2 an hour before receiving the kettle) but this makes my efforts seem feeble.

My week: Worked on the 31st until about 3 then came home and listened to the fireworks noise from abour 6pm to 2 am
1st we did almost nothing. B was supposed to come over but she was sick.
2nd Went into work at 9 then took the boys to Gymboree where Margo met us. Was using my oxygen and not feeling great and she suggested I see if I could see Marks. No antibiotic. Lungs the same as last week.
3rd Danny & Margo to Dallas until Sat. Picked up the guys at school then we had a good day. Chris stopped to check my antifreeze. he'd left the cap off. Hard night. Boys woke a few times.
4th Sonja and Richard came early at about noon and I met Chris at Sams then we went to Einsteins for a quick lunch before his next appt. Sold one today.
