Good morning,
I received a package from T.L.E. Sharp and was in the process of writing a private message but thought this deserved some sharing.
I got home from work yesterday, exhausted as I usually am lately and as I was grabbing the mail I saw a package. I was thinking to myself that I must have bought a knife and forgotton about it and was wondering how I would explain that to my wife. She has basically given me permission to "take care of myself" but as much as I'd like to spend like a drunken sailor to make myself feel better I know that the money isn't there.
After I get inside I opened the bubble mailer and grabbed what I thought would be the receipt and instead found a note.
It said (paraphrasing because it's at home) I thought some Queen D2 would help cheer you up.

Well, it did.
You offered me a small envelope with a box inside filled with happiness and I'd like you to know that's exactly what I received.
Everything is so sideways right now and having a friend, even if we weren't before, reach out with a gift (and a generous one at that) means a lot.
Thank you very much.
This is my first Queen (besided a Schatt I picked up in a pass around) and my first in D2 which is pretty exciting. It's also a pattern I have absolutely none of so I really get to try some new things out on this one.
You really brought a smile to my face and let me forget about the general state of things for a few minutes and I really appreciate that.
I'll post some pictures later when I get back to where the knife is sitting to help keep this as knife related as possible and I welcome anyone else to post stories and pictures of a time something similar happened to them.
Thanks everyone and especially Bryce / T.L.E. Sharp for the kindness and generosity of the porch that I'm proud to call myself a part of.
