thank you notes

Dear Summer:
Thanks for starting extra early this year. I'm not sure I would really appreciate when Fall finally comes to town if I had not been sweating my butt off since April. So really, thanks.


Dear Summer-Lovers:
More than 50 days of 90+ degree heat definitely trumps three blizzards. You win. Thanks.

Dear $30 Target Dress:
Thanks for being made of wrinkle-free material and always making me feel cute and comfy, especially on a bad-hair-day Monday after a rainy-binge-eating Sunday. You are the greatest!

Dear Dora:
Thanks for having a birthday and giving us a reason to make cupcakes on a Monday night.

Dear Trader Joe's:
Thanks for being stocked with yummy stuff, but more importantly, thanks for being small. Just as my Elle was starting to turn on me, we were halfway down the produce aisle and slid right into the checkout. In any other store I would only have made it to the cereal aisle and everyone knows its a long way from there to the frozen section.
Oh yea, and sorry about the ship captain's wheel that Elle almost pulled off the wall as she was "landing in California".

Dear Jiffy Lube:
Thanks for taking advantage of me when all I wanted was an oil change. Just kidding, I'm a big fat sucker. I always say yes to the "extras" and then complain about it to Wade for the rest of the day.
