Its the thought that counts.....

I had an unexpected call today.  Unfortunately I was out......

I never expect anything if I do someone a favour......mind this was a huge favour....this was not someone I knew then either.........and this was done last May.  Yes thats right eight months ago!!! 

This is what I received -

 

Don't they look yummy and so well presented too.  You might notice that some are missing.  Thats because I have started on them already.

If I had been younger this box would have only lasted five minutes.  Now that I am older I have to watch how much sugar I consume. 

Best hide them away, because there is not just me in this house.....shhhhh....won't say where just in case. 

Receiving those was a surprise....May be not entirely - you see sometimes I know whats going to happen (or my conscious does) - just little things, nothing major - not like knowing lottery numbers or who is going to win the races, not anything like that. 

Yesterday I was sorting through some paperwork, and a piece of paper fell on the floor.  When I picked it up it was this guy (who bought the chocolates) telephone number.  I looked at it and thought that I never heard from him since May, do I really want his number, no I don't, so I threw it in the bin.  But I promptly took it out again and put it in my desk drawer. 

Now what did that mean?  Here he is on my doorstep - eight months later with a box of chocolates for me!

Its the thought that counts.....does it matter how long it takes to think.
