Wonderful Weekend

I was chatting to my next door neighbour this morning and she was telling me all about how time consuming her work is and what she had to get done around the house - she's always running around, very busy.  It makes me wonder why I always feel that I never have enough time. I don't go out to work - I get to stay at home all day - my daughters are grown up and mostly independent - so where is all the time going?  I'll have to sit down and work that one out!

I do know that lately all the time is being spent on preparing for birthdays- in particular Eve's 18th next weekend - and I'm so looking forward to it.  I've been so busy planning surprises for Eve's birthday that I almost forgot my own birthday on Friday!  Needless to say my darling family made me feel very special.  I've had a wonderful weekend.

Grace crocheted me some lovely bracelets, which you can see on her blog, here.  I received lots of lovely gifts and surprises.

And we had a delicious cake.

A big thank you to my family for making it special.
