So, last night, my wonderful husband walked in the door with the mail and asked me if I was expecting a package from Amazon. I looked at him blankly, quickly going through my memory trying to figure out what Christmas present we had ordered that had not arrived yet.
He had a twinkle in his eye, because he thought he knew what it was. He did, and I had no clue.
But when I opened it, I was quite excited. Giddy would probably be a better word. Not quite daffodil giddy, but giddy nonetheless.
Remember the sad story of my camera?
Last week, I decided that I would use some credit card reward points that I had been saving up for years, really.
And last night my reward arrived!


“Why the 770?”, you ask. Well, thanks for asking. Two reasons, really:
1. I wanted a Canon PowerShot that was similar to my old camera.
2. I had enough points for this one.
I’m so thrilled. I was not expecting it to arrive so soon, because the website said 3 to five weeks.
And it was free!
My name is Rhonda. I am blessed to live in a beautiful place out in the country with my wonderful husband. In addition to our "real" jobs (I work at a garden center and he is a teacher), we have a small farm where we raise vegetables, eggs and chickens to sell at local Farmer's Markets. We are currently fixing up/remodeling a house into which we will soon be moving...hopefully. In my free time, (what is that?) I enjoy traveling, cooking, crafty projects, reading and watching the sun set on the hills.
Yay!
I keep reading your blog. I’ve bookmarked it. No pressure to keep updating. Oh, and tomorrow is National Pie Day. Might be a good time to try out your new camera?
