29 Gifts: Day 17

It has been a lazy Sunday for me. I wasn't feeling well, so I stayed indoors and spent most of the day relaxing and watching an offensive amount of television (in my defense, I watched Tivo'd episodes of the Oprah show and programs on her new network). It's now Sunday evening and I am determined to get myself caught up on this 29 Gifts series! (eta: FAIL...I'll finish tomorrow!)

My gift for Day 17 was the gift of Anonymous Love!

On this day, I went to the bookstore for some "Me" time (which involves a cup of coffee and a stack of magazines to read at my leisure) and while there, I released my gift. I had thought about this gift before I'd left my house that morning, so I came prepared with my handmade love-note:

My intent was to plant it somewhere in a meaningful book so that eventually, when discovered, it will bring a smile to the recipient's face. It did not take long for me to decide which book to place it in; it was very much like planting a seed to keep the momentum going:

Today's Gratitude List:

1) Finding an empty sofa-chair in the bookstore cafe...almost as if they were expecting me. :)
2) Redeeming a 50% coupon and cashing in on Borders Bucks to buy my Gift for Day 19.
3) Getting squeezed in to last-minute Physical Therapy AND Massage appointments.
