I thjink I'm going home today!  Thanks for the CRVS, cards, letters, thoughts and prayers.

Awesome! And dogs are bundles of love! (and a few other characteristics    ).

@amberleadavisI tried to add Oster Bishop to King next to the Birmingham Stained Glass page you sent. Alas, like much in life, it did not go according to plan!  I was so excited to receive a bunch of new CRVs from you today

[amberleadavis]

Well, I loved seeing it!

HA! Well thanks to an old thread with @jodi_maloneyand others I finally figured out what CRVs are. I was happy to learn that it took some people way longer to figure it out. 😁 Of course when I first started googling the term all I got were cars.

Well, at least it's good for something!  I have other inks in the same color family that I prefer to the mislabeled ink in the sample bottle; actually, I have many inks in that color family!

 

And apparently no Bishop to King to show you as a potential replacement.

@amberleadavisAs per your request:

Well, like you, I adore the fidget ball. I don't notice a smell on mine, but embarrassingly, I'm a mouth breather.

@dragondazdGreat CRV! Puts mine to shame!

I got a new CRV from @amberleadavis!  Haven't opened it yet as I want to savor it - apparently, for her, USPS will deliver on Sundays!  It was in the box that should have been empty when I went to get the paper this morning.

I received mail from the magnificent @amberleadavis today. Yep, CRV.  
 

OK, so once I write my part, take photos, and share them, what should happen to the CRV after that?

You can either hold onto them or mail them back to @amberleadavisI once tried the paper-washing experiment and posted picture of that- wasn't pretty!

@amberleadavis My first CRVs from you post-surgery(the others you had done ahead of time and given to your minions to mail). Hooray!  I was so glad to have these for multiple reasons.  Thank you.

Very generous of you, @Bo Bo Olson!

It is hard to find a place to write because I don't have a desk in my house, but I am slowly starting to feel better.

It’s good you are starting to feel better. I’m glad for you.  I don’t technically have a desk. My Dad had a desk owned for awhile that he put a door on to make it a little taller, and wider. He was 6’6” at his tallest. That gave him a wider surface for paperwork, while still using the desk’s drawers. It is in the basement. All my pens, paper, etc are on the main level of the house.  
 

My Dad also framed another desk at a right angle, again with a door for the top once desk top computers were a part of life. It also held the printer, modem etc.  He used file cabinets to create that workspace base.

Good to hear (the latter)

So glad to hear it!  I sometimes "build" a desk out of some thick and large books I grab from the bookshelf!
