Have You Ever Got a Whale in the Mail?

I know that that sounds both unlikely and rather like a possible title for a Dr. Seuss book, but that is exactly what I got in the mail on Monday! Not an Orca like Shamu or a White Sperm Whale like Moby Dick, but a way cute little purple whale swimming in a sea of flowers. He is the sweetest little bag - perfect for knitting notions - from Piddleloop. I won him in Chan's Blessings contest.
(I borrowed the photo from the Piddleloop blog. I hope they don't mind. Their Etsy shop is here...)

Chan is always a good read. Her fur girls are adorable but what I enjoy most is that her life is very real. Perhaps I just have issues, but some overachieving bloggers make me feel (clearly not intentional - like I said, my issues) inadequate. Don't get me wrong - Chan's life is busy - but it is balanced... I like that.

SNOL! Thank you. I'm positive the Piddleloop girls won't mind that you borrowed their photo. I know, because Jen sent me some of their stock photos for my contest.

I don't know that my life is so balanced, but I'm trying.

Such a fun post. I needed the smile today. You were right about the special purple yarn. I still owe you something...and it will come. My life just must be as balanced as yours.
