I was in a car accident a couple months ago and I have post-concussion disorder. I went from being a very fast thinker to processing things very slowly. That's been pretty frustrating. I'm able to read now and I put some books on my list that would help me appreciate my mental present. I was planning on purchasing a couple of them over the next month or so.

My wonderful Matchy found them because she's MAGICAL and gifted me with the book Thinking Fast and Slow. It's a great book about the two kinds of thinking we do, the immediate thinking and the intentional thinking. It even includes some games I can play to help improve the speed of my intentional thought process. It's a FANTASTIC book and it was perfect for my situation.

Yesterday I received my second round of gifts. Stefanienee somehow found out that I LOVE loose tea and sent me a wonderful TeaForte set of different teas. She also sent me a book called Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Cannot Stop Talking. I'm an ambivert (partially an extrovert, partially an introvert) but I've mostly been considered an extrovert. Lately I've been wanting to explore my introverted side, particularly since the accident has quieted me down quite a bit. This book and the tea were perfect compliments to help with my recovery.

She was also REALLY fun to communicate with. Her messages were very cool and it turns out we have the SAME go-to favorite book! The Stand, by Stephen King, which is one of the most awesome books in ever.

What I don't know is how Stefanienee KNEW all of these things. Her gifts have been incredible and thoughtful and EXACTLY what I needed. I know that there's another package on the way, and I can't wait.
