Wow! Did you ever have one of those days, even tho you're glad it's Friday, you're a bit sad for whatever reason? Well, I was having one of those days...until I got home and noticed I had a package from my Secret Spoiler! First off...it was addressed to "The Wonderous Janet Mylastname", which made me laugh :-)

Inside was a gift certificate for iTunes, an assortment package of Tazo Teas [as it says on the box; "2 filterbags each of ten captivating teas: Awake, Calm, China Green Tips, Earl Grey, Tazo Chai, Passion, Decaffeinated Tazo Chai, Wild Sweet Orange, Lotus and Zen"...yum!], and two packages of Harry Potter candies, Fizzing Whizbees and Drooble's Best Blowing Gum.

('scuse the unironed cloth I used to photograph the stuff on)

She (or he) also enclosed a card, and that more than anything cheered me up:

The outside is pretty, eh?

Here's the inside:

Now that made me smile :-)

Thank you SO much, Secret Spoiler! You're the best :-)

She (or he) also crumpled up some desk calendar pages as packing material, which I uncrumpled to read, and was glad I did (and after I read 'em, I'm pretty sure my secret spoiler is a she LOL)!

Some that really cracked me up:

Tuesday, Feb 7: Note To Self. There were 3, but I liked this one best: If you don't take care of yourself, no one else will.

Wednesday, Feb 8: Today's To-Do: Take yourself on a dinner date. ROFL! First it said: Glam it up, get your freak on, and head to the hippest bistro you know. Then it gave 4 instructions; the one that made me laugh hardest said: Slink into a candlelit corner and pull our your compact. Make eyes at yourself and whisper about how the candlelight makes beautiful bonfires in your ocean-deep eyes. AHAHAHAH! Can you imagine?

Thursday, Feb 9: Snip 'n' Save: Saying No Without Saying No. Again, there were 4 examples. My favorite? She asks...Is it cool if I date your ex? You say...Go for it! I'm just happy that you're not hung up on size. Like it really matters! Um...er...BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Monday, Feb 13: Bad Girl Gift Guide. Among other things, If he gives you a book, he wants to be the headmaster and school you. hehehe, school me, baby!

Tuesday, Feb 14: Today's To-Do: Celebrate V. Day! This one said...and I swear it's true: Ways to celebrate my vagina, and then some blank lines where you could write stuff in...ROFLMAO!

Thursday, Feb 16: Today's To-Do: Practice dance therapy. I know a few folks that might could benefit from this, so I'm posting the whole thing!

Some mornings - no matter how bad you've been - it just happens. You wake up on the wrong side of the brain and feel like caca. You can go back to bed or suffer your own evil mood all day - or do a self-intervention and dance yourself happy! Forget about your morning routine, crank some favorite dance tunes and slowy begin to wiggle. Then dance around the room until you feel your butt start to giggle. Keep dancing for as long as it takes until you've got a big smile on your face and the boogie in your butt. It's your bad girl power point and it'll keep you charged throughout the day. And honey, shake it, don't break it!

Good advice, don't you think?

How nice! I love surprises too. Especially ones that involve tea!

heh, i need to get some of that boogie in my butt... that didn't come out right.

What neat gifties! I love the packaging too - and that is some GREAT advice!! I'll do my best to remember it!

I loved having and being a spoiler. I may have to do that again some time.

That is so cool! Pass me over some of that passion I mean, calming tea ;-)

That is so sweet! What cool stuff presents and packaging. "Shake it, don't break it"... I like that one.

Such a wonderful idea...you've got a good one, you cleaned up!

that is so sweet!

doh! forgot to say michele sent me!

I am soo glad you enjoyed the package!!! am already putting together the next one.

I can't remember if I told you in the card: I don't think I did...I love tazo tea...my favorite isn't in the sampler...it is called REFRESH! Yum.
