February 17, 2010

Well, the day went smoothly enough. I had a friend come over with her kids and made them lunch, just to help pass the time. I got my Pampered Chef kit and am super excited to start looking through it!

My neighbor below our apartment was actually holding on to the box for me. I had no idea he had it since there was a FedEx message on my door. I was a little disappointed I had missed them, but assumed I would just get it within the next couple of days. Around 7 o'clock, we get a knock on our door and our neighbor brought us up our box. And this isn't a light weight box! I was so surprised, and grateful. It made my night! It was such a simple and curteous act and it made me smile for quite a while after that. I haven't really ventured out to meet my neighbors in the whole year I've been living here, but now I'm wishing I had. I am very grateful to know that I do have caring neighbors, just a floor below us.

Good night.
