True Love

Today when I came home from school for lunch I was met with a package on my door step. Jen may be snickering to herself right this very minute! Jen was in charge of forwarding my diploma when it arrived. I saw that the package was from my beloved sister, Jennifer, and wondered why she would forward my diploma from Weber in such a big package???



I soon found out! What part of "Thou shalt not send your crazy gifts" don't you understand!!



Gal, I seem to remember going on the tour at Gpa's and choosing NOT to take this cross stitch! Oh, yes, Jen it is hanging and now you have to come visit!



This, however, was a pleasant surprise because who doesn't enjoy Michael Scott...



This is exactly what I needed after this hellish week, thanks Jen I love you and at this point we should all be afraid!

LOL....I am laughing my 'bleep' off right now. That is fabulous. I am completly impressed that the cross stitch in hanging in your kitchen. Did you leave the big gob of dust on it?

Good job, Jen. I love the card and the Thou shalt not is classic!

Ang said...

You bet the dust is on it! That puppy came in deluxe shape and their was no need to alter it in any way, shape or form.

You just wait!

Jen said...

At the moment I am laughing so hard that I am crying. I do plan to come and see that hanging on your wall, by the way. Check your e-mail and see if that date is okay with you.

Sadly I did have to cut off part of the wicker frame on the cross stitch because it was too big to fit in the box. As a result you are missing some of the cobwebs that were draped over the frame, but I must say that the lace is almost black with dust. That is a priceless heirloom!

Sorry I had to cross out the Happy Birthday part on the card, but I couldn't find an Office card that wasn't for birthdays. I felt like that added to the classiness of the whole package.

I have been waiting with anticipation for 48 hours for you to get that package, and I hope that you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Let me tell you, I was laughing my butt off, I have opened that card over a dozen times and watched the video I posted several times as well, just to hear Michael's voice.

You are one classy lady.

Ang said...

Did I say classy cause I meant trashy!

I, like Ang, have watched the video numerous times and each time I can't stop laughing...it is an instant classic and now it will live forever in the blogisphere!!!

No offense to the "cross-stitcher", but the "families are forever" is tacky and it will not last long in its current position.

We have been trying to capture the FREAK show next door, but trying to film someone while they are acting like an arse...is harder than you would think. I'm sure Michael Scott could do it though!!

Shelly said...

Had we only known that you guys liked the 'Families are Forever' cross stitch, I could have hooked you up long ago!!

Jen said...

I too opened that card numerous times before I sent it, and I laughed every time. I am glad that you have permanently blogged it for posterity.

Nate, I would like to see you camped out in your yard in full camouflage trying to film your neighbor. Just don't get caught because we don't want you to go to jail for stalking.

Sheryl said...

Ang, make sure you blog Nate camped out in the camo, cause that sounds as entertaining as the freak show he is trying to capture.

Nate said...

We were out there last night and Ang was swinging on our tree swing and I was "pretending" to film her and the whole time I was trying to capture the freak show. I haven't checked out the footage yet, but I am thinking it is probably not blog worthy yet.

I tell you, people don't realize what goes in to making a post. I am going to devise a better plan today...because I need to get her yelling "sit, sit, sit" on the video. If only somehow I could turn this into a profession that came with a paycheck; I could stop filling out these 'tupid applications!!!
