Today I embark on an adventure in Suffolk to explore the home counties of England and partake in my role as the Social Coordinator for n International Summer School for English Language Learners... hell yes! My train departs at 15:35 and I arrive in the south of England later this evening and remain there (more or less) until August :) But before I left I went to say goodbye to my manager at Fat Face and they had not only scraped together a card in the less than a week's notice time I gave them, but also chipped in to buy me the new white tank top I had wanted at the shop. I am blessed with thoughtful friends. This past weekend I spent with Maddy and Fiona and they are the cheese to my macaroni. I had a chance to have coffee with a good friend, Jim, who wrote my reference that helped get me my new job and he delivered a present of a card and two necklaces from our friend, Bara. I am so blessed. On top of all of that I had a lovely bike ride with my friend, Rob last night and THEN and THEN if that wasn't enough yesterday I had a chance to skype with my sister and beautiful niece and today I check the post to find this lovely necklace sent to me from my most fabulous cousin, Krissy. She had no way of knowing that I am going through a huge change in life at the moment and her gift, so thoughtful, so lovely, arrived at the perfect moment, with a great note and for no other reason other than she was thinking of me and misses me. That is the best gift of all.
So here is a picture of the necklace that Krissy sent. I haven't had a chance to take a photo of the other lovely ones, but they are also very "Rachel" and I am sure they will surface in future blog entries.
So thank you friends for being amazing. Thank you for the blessing you are in my life... alright... time to pack. A little bit of love goes a long way.
