It’s my birthday!

Yes, I do make a fuss about it although I’m not sure that being halfway through my 40’s all that exciting

We had family lunch yesterday, it’s the first time I’ve seen the boys since Easter, everyone is on fine form, J got a bit hot after our trip to the allotment. (sitting in his pants, just like his grandfather!)

It was lovely to see them.

This week has been all kinds of exciting for new things. I bought a bread bin (I’m in my 40’s, it’s a thing!)Then on Saturday, finally I found chairs for the kitchen. In the local charity shop for £10 each. It’s only taken me 9 years to find the right chairs, we did try before, but now we’re done, and I need to thank Ma who helped me carry them home, in two trips and bashed her face on one of the trips!Today we are just arsing about as it traditional for birthdays. Tomorrow, I’m going to bake and take the take to Christina and Fred for tasting. Wednesday is for theatre, Thursday is for seeing Kathy and the Baxters babies (although they aren’t at all babies anymore) and Friday we are in London for museums (I think!) it’s a big week!
