40th Birthday Card

Hi all, I felt really lucky yesterday, firstly my name was pulled to receive Velcro from Christine Emberson's  blog http://hope-chances.blogspot.co.uk, then I won blog candy at Planet Susie http://susiesplanet.blogspot.co.uk, oh how lucky can one get. I immediately went on to buy some euro millions tickets in case it was "three in a row", have not checked them yet, feel I am being greedy or chancing my luck.  Oh,  I checked my Euromillions and won £2.90. ah well at least I won.

Yesterday I had a surprise day babysitting, young William had been up all night and his mum Emma was exhausted so Auntie Wilma took over so she could catch up on her sleep. I ended up having him all day and being only 7 weeks old he was a joy to look after. How could I forget that little boys are a danger when they have no nappy on, I left his nappy open while I fed him and suddenly felt my lap getting wet, oh the joys of babies, but I loved every minute of it. Every time he stirred in his pram my two dogs went over to stand guard, they were intrigued by him. As a result the 40th birthday card I was due to make had to be put on hold until today

(A few hours later) ......Fortieth Birthday card done and dusted and a couple of other projects, to be revealed later.

As usual ladies I eagerly look forward to reading your kind comments.  I really have to get more Christmas cards made for my own use or no one will get any this year.  We as a family have decided to cut back on cards this year and donate to a charity.

 

Take care ladies, wrap up warm.
