Today is my Birthday

21 again (cough) I'm going to work this morning as we are so very busy there. Normally I would book the day off as a holiday as I get quite embarrassed at the whole Happy Birthday thing, why?... I'm not sure.

I have received some fabulous cards from friends and family which I will show you all later.

My strangest present is a couple of Telephone tables from Chris (husband) not his idea but mine as my Mam bought me a beautiful unusual vase and humongous flowers in rich browns and creams and I needed something nice t stand them on as a focal point.

Shocking News

Well today I had to go out and buy a Mothers Day card, I had made one with a friend for my Mam but intended making one for my Mother in Law but unfortunately my hands are still not working.

Silly thing is I have a pile of cards but none that she hasn't seen already, now some good did come of it as I bought a hand made card that someone else had put the work into so at least I still did my bit for us crafters.

I'm thinking now that maybe a trip to the doctors should be made but it will have to wait untill next week.

Got my Cake and Ate it.

This is my Birthday cake that the gang at work bought me, it was really funny as they thought my Birthday was Mothering Sunday so thought I'd be off work.

Actually it's Monday so that means we will just have to have another cake for Monday now now isn't that a shame.

This is the not so flattering photo of me trying to blow out the candles on my cake, that may sound an easy task but..... they were the type that everytime you blew it out it re-lit grrrrrrr.

The young lad in the background is Nigel, he is one of our newest employee's at work and he just happens to be the nicest young man you could wish to meet.
