I don't like Monda-ays, I don't like Monda-ays...

Sing along with me. Mondays are the first day of the working week. Four long days till the weekend. I don't usually like Mondays - who does?

But today was different. Oh, yes, same old panics at work, same old too-busy-to-leave-my-desk-for-lunch, let alone go to the gym. But it was a nice sunny evening as I drove home, and I was looking forward to mucking out Henny Penny's yard when I got home. (Well, I can pretend I'm a farmer, can't I?)

But what was this package in my letterbox? Who doesn't love getting packages? Especially unexpected ones from previously unknown persons. The Lovely Leah had sent me an apron. You see, I'm trying out this swap business, and it can really be fun. Lucy hosts the Sassy Apron Swap, based on northern hemisphere seasons. That's OK. I sent off my Autumn apron to my assigned apron lover, but this time, I didn't receive anything. Maybe she was just too busy. So Lucy put out a call for others to fill in the gaps. And, lucky me, I got Leah. My apron has lovely autumn hues, and is lined with little blue Henny Pennies. Also a lovely knitted potholder was in the package too. Thank you Leah. Pity the other item of mail today was a speeding fine. Don't even care. Love my present.
