So, I went and got my oil changed and afterwards, I had this spur of the moment urge to go to the thrift store. So, instead of going home, I headed that way. I'm pretty sure it was kismet, because when I got there, she was waiting for me. I was taken by her beauty at once. I stood and stared, mouth agape, because this was probably going to be the thrifting find of the century. She seems brand new and is EXACTLY my size and made in England and PERFECT! And it's my birthday tomorrow and she was just calling to me, so I brought her home. You all will hate me if I tell you how much I paid for her, so I won't, but I'll admit she was a steal. She's living in my dining room right now, modeling an ever changing array of clothing. It's like I have my own personal Barbie doll! I'd give you all permission to hate me, but it is going to be my birthday, so I think I earned a bit of good luck!

What a brilliant find! I have watched a few on Ebay and they always go for a ton of money.
Hope your Birthday was fun!

Oh well done! The universe is smiling on you. The best presents are those with that sense of serendipity attached. It will always have a story now. Happy Birthday!
And GORGEOUS banner.
