Happy Birthday to the girls of this house

Two birthdays this week for the girls of our house, I have a lovely birthday picture of the 3 year old, taken on my birthday (15 Sept). (don't worry about the date on the picture, it must have reset to that when the batteries were changed. Isn't she gorgeous. Ruby's birthday is the 12 Sept.

We get our bathrooms fitted out today and the laundry tub put in, yahoo, maybe we can use the new toilets by tomorrow arvo. We still have to get the sliding doors and frames and then the cornices put in a bit more painting then all done, hopefully only another week away. I still have to clean the tiles down before the shower screens arrive next week.


Also a big thanks to Cece, she sent me the most wonderful colours of Sugar N Creme cotton for dishcloths for my POM gift, I have to get my act together for that swap too. And big thanks to Tianne for my POM gift she gave me today at Knitters Guild, some lovely chocolates, lovely hand and body lotion, soap, facewasher was a beautiful red rose embroidered on it to replace the roses Tim dug out of my garden, I can keep this one and not get pricked, a lovely hankie with my initial, a wonderful card with a beautiful dog which reminded her of Ruby, and lovely chocolates, did I already say that, but hey they are lindt chocolates.

At Knitters Guild in Kiama today we learnt to needle felt, it was great, so I purchased some needles and fibre to have a bit more practice at it, I did prick my fingers on a couple of occasions, ouch did that hurt.

Boss says happy birthday to Ruby. Lindt yes does need extra mention. Bathroom looks great.

Remember to concentrate and not needle felt when your pissed off only knit and drink then. Also I dont think needle felting and drink will go either.

Glad you got it! And I won't be offended if you re-gift some of that yarn to your dishswap pal, I know I sent a bunch.

Renovations are dreadful while they are in progress but the end result can be so wonderful that you forget about the torment and do it again!
Yours look great.
Cheers Gillian
