Thank You Notes I Neglected to Send…
Dear Sister’s Husband,
Thanks for showing me those awesome pistol grip clamps. Not only are they easy to use, but the reduced the amount of profanity used during our last DIY project. If it hadn’t been for that stroke of genius, the Better Half and I would still trying to hold spindles in place using arms, wrists, ankles, and toes; sort of like a Bob Villa version of Twister.
With much appreciation,
Jaded

Dear Wikipedia,
Your seemingly infinite data base leaves me in awe. Without you I would have never realized that my current music taste is leaning toward post punk revival. Who knew a thirty-something housewife would be drawn into music following diligently in the steps of the Sex Pistols or the Clash. Thanks to your insight, I will be able to sleep easier at night, though maybe not with any of those songs playing on repeat in my head.
Yours truly,
Jaded

Dear Dad,
Thank you for teaching me the joy is in the deed and not in receiving credit.
Love,

Dear Nate from My favorite pizza place,
Dude, you are a wealth of righteous info. Without your help, I would have never grasped the potential of fish tanks and fully appreciated the beauty of a self contained ecosystem, much less heard about this guy. Inspirational. Thanks for sharing.
Sincerely,
Jaded

Dear Lapcat,
Thanks for showing me how to appreciate sunspots and belly rubs. We all need to stop and eat the houseplants every so often.
Your less than humble litter scooper,

ah, they’re out there now, though, little quarks flying through the universe.
Ah, belly rubs are always appreciated. You teach him to rub your belly and i will be impressed.
You said dude, righteous and post punk revival. That’s awesome.
Bob, I’m sure some will, and others well, you express thanks by paying it forward.

Maggie, ahh yeah word of the day toilet paper. It comes in handy.
I want to know the secret of teaching that thing about appreciating the deed and not the reward. I’ve got to teach that to my kids, as it apparently is not genetic, based on family member behavior
Daisy, I wish knew.
