Initially, because of the size, I thought the sender had purchased, "The War of Art" for me (our next book club book). Though I would have appreciated receiving the book, I sincerely hoped it wasn't, because another generous gift-giver had already sent me the book.
I searched for a vulnerable spot in the packaging that could be penetrated without the use of extra equipment, and slowly began removing the wrapping.
It wasn't long before I was holding in my hands the MOST BEAUTIFUL BLUE, leather-bound, dot-paper notebook. I can't explain why I was mesmerized by the color, but I was (and still am). As I write this notebook entry, I really can't find the words to justly describe the color, so I chose a blue pen (this blue pen) to write with.
The Beautiful Blue Notebook gifted to me by a MOST Beautiful Friend.
Thanks Jen.
Funny. I wrote about color, too. My new buttery yellow room. What a lovely gift from a dear friend. And all the feels for Teach Write blue!
ReplyDeleteI love that color. Special packages are the best.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely notebook and what a lovely friend!
ReplyDeleteDonnetta, what a sweet friend and great gift. I love the quote: "Proceed as if your success is inevitable." Good to remember when starting a new notebook. Enjoy!
