raynebowrangerAlmost my birthday! Yay! Though really, I don't know why I'm excited, I already got my main present from my parents - my dollshouse. I may get a few other small bits from them, but that's about all, and I'm going to be OLD, but there's something fun about birthday cards too and of course cake!
TWENTY THREE DAYS UNTIL I'M TWENTY THREE
Speaking of my dollshouse - I have completely decorated the bathroom and papered the kitchen and study. I have to paper all the other rooms still and decide what I'm doing about the outside - paper or paint, I'm undecided at the moment.
I've been making plenty of items to go in the rooms - I've gathered quite a collection of free printies off the internets, all kind of boxes - cat food, nappies, toothpaste, nappy rash cream, cat litter! I've also made a knitting box full of wool and needles and a magazine, a baby chaning bag, a load of pipe cleaner teddies, perfume bottles, some food and bits from fimo clay, towel bales and some handbags, it's so much fun!
I bought a bathroom suite, kitchen range and a pine dresser, but that's as far as my furniture goes so far, I have a heap of stuff on my wishlist, but can only buy a few items each month.
I've been invited to join a miniatures club in Sleaford, so I might go along and check it out!
Busy week this week so far putting document folders together for TVA's annual meeting in Russia - we've got the folders put together, badges made and attendance certificates sorted. Not sure what else will be brought home tonight to put together since Mike flies out tomorrow.
Went to baby Josephine's christening last Saturday - I think it's the first christening I've ever been to - and OMG they aren't allowed to christen a baby over the font anymore for health and safety reasons! WTF babies have been held over the font for years and I've never heard a case of a vicar dropping the baby in!
It was an okay service, it was supposed to be relaxed, but it seemed a little - unorganised. We went to my cousin's mum's house after for buffet and drinks and spent most of the day there, before heading onto the pub for tea and then the pub for evening celebrations.
Jack is slowing learning to give his paw on command, it's great to see him learning. And the house is kitty-full right now since James' cat Willis is staying with us until they move to their new house in Biggleswade.
