Thank you everyone
I am sooo happy
It has been such a good birthday
It started last night when John gave me my pressie from him
it was this huge box full of food
All the things I never get normally because they're either to fattening
or too expensive
or both
Cadburys chocolate chip ice cream
The worlds best marmalade (Robertsons)
chocolate macaroons & Afgan bikkies
3 bounty bars (*drools*)
cinamon fruit bread
My favourite lollipops (yes... I confess... there's just something really primeval about lollipops)
toffee caramel sauce
popcorn & crisps
And last but not least....
Cheese
You practically have to take a 2nd mortgage out to be able to afford that stuff these days.
but I haven't had cheese for myself in the house for 2 years now *sighs*
I't's the one culinary sin I just can't resist
so I just don't have it around
I'll be able to have cheese on toast
I better stop or I'll drool so much I'll short out the keyboard
He said that he thought about getting me things... but decided that we already have too many 'things' and he wanted to get me something that would last
cheeky bugg*r
I could feel myself getting fatter just looking in that box
& he topped it all off with a lovely card & a bunch or Jonquils (my favourite flower)
So I'm a very very happy ciri
Thank you everyone for such lovely birthday greetings & piccys
This definitely has been a very special birthday
and full of surprises
And I am just full of happyness *grinning like a loon*
Oh... & I'm getting fisheys from my Mum
one of John's boys is giving me his old fishtank & I went down & bought a filter & gravel etc.
Apparently I have to let the water 'turn over' in the tank for a couple of weeks before I put fish in it to get all the nitrate balance right so I haven't got my fish yet
but in a couple of weeks
I love fish
will just be goldfish though
nothing fancy
can't afford to run a heated aquarium
but would love to have tropicals one day
I'm happy
feel just like a little kid at christmas
Best birthday I've had in YEARS!!!
"happy happy happy
happy little ciri
