Well my DH bought me a bottle of red wine (I had to wash some gifted glasses as we smashed the last of our everyday wine glasses a few days ago) for my birthday as well as the two grape vines he bought me from the car boot a few weeks ago. Poor chap is so tired, he's asleep already, so I'm drinking alone except for my online chums : ). But I'm happy. The books still balance, pizza and foccacia went down well for dinner. I've washed the kids shirts for tomorrow, supervised homework/revision and loaded the dishwasher. I also emptied the compost caddy, watered the greenhouse and fed the fish. My children put a candle on a piece of lemon drizzle cake and sang happy birthday (can you expect any more from teenagers?). Seriously, I love them and they often give me a book of favours (chores, beauty treatments, garden duties, car cleaning, uninterrupted mum time, etc) which I value more than cheap rubbish. I've had some beautiful cards and £25 to invest. I've just watched the episode of Super Scrimpers I missed last night and found it more useful than the previous episodes. I get the feeling the program is evolving as the series is running. So, as birthday 51 draws to a close, I wish you all a good night and a brighter tomorrow.
Until tomorrow x
