The End of an Era - Part II

Then, whilst I was still in a deep state of brooding and this time causing a real headache unto myself, I received a phone call from Reception at 2pm. Hey Joni, there's a delivery here for you!


Gee, someone's in a nice and chirpy mood! Must be the Brisbane office. Did i leave something behind? Wonder what it is...


And what should I find waiting at the Reception but the most gorgeous, spirit-uplifting, bouquet of long-stemmed roses from my darling mr. roo. with the message...

Oh, but they were so beautiful...

At a time I really needed a little niceness, just a little something special that acknowledges 'yes, it's my birthday today', mr. roo came through for me & took my tears away. It wasn't that I needed 2-dozen roses to make things better (though it certainly helps!) but i was spiralling into an unexplainable sadness, and with impeccable timing, his hands reached out and pulled me back up. The day could only get better...^_^

Back at home that night, I was still smiling....
