Thank you, (not) So Secret Santa, Sandra in Sydney!

Two books of poetry by Australia's Poet Lorikeet (recycled from the library, yay! -- some say "regifting" is in bad taste, but I like having a connection to people who've come before me),

A humor book "My Television is a Vampire" (at least, I hope that's humor).

Postcards of Australian birds (my walls will have more color on them, soon)

Australian silly refrigerator magnets (always useful, as my doors and window frames are all hollow steel. I can use them to hang notes all over the house, not just on the refrigerator).

A CD of Australian Music Hall stars (this will be fun to listen to)

A necklace made from an Australian coin (did you make it your own self, Sandra? I love the way its adjustable in length), and finally,

A note with a wonderful print of Australian wildflowers on it.

Thank you so much for the parcel of midsummer sunshine! I shall use it wisely to help keep me warm through the winter I'm in...
