It's my un-unbirthday

I am now a long way from a zero-ending birthday so am relatively cool with the whole deal.

I received a pile of books. I love books! One of them was this beautiful book of poems which was so beautifully wrapped I may never get to read it! (Yes I will). I should have pleanty of time to read books now as I don't think I will ever sleep again due to the fact that...

I also got an espresso machine and bean grinder! It takes a little getting used to so I am buzzing right now with the test shots I was doing. Woo!Woo!

I like the Mad Hatter's philosphy on birthdays - celebrate all the 364 days of the year that happen to be your un-birthday - treat yourself nicely every day of the year. So happy un-birthday to you all (or is it your actual birthday too)?

quickie

Not much to report today - only that I can't believe we're approaching the end of April. Aleady! Blimey, that went quick. At least it has meant an end to snow, ice, and photos of bare naked trees - now those branches are covered in pom-poms! Happy.

lots

Who was it that decided that 24 hours would be enough hours for a day? They were very wrong, there needs to be 30, at least. I'm guessing though that if there were that I would still be moaning (in the same way that no matter what size your handbag, be it tiny clutch bag or huge shopper, it always gets filled up with stuff).

Thankfully though the magnolias are blooming and everything's beginning to GROW and that's enough to gladden the busiest soul. I'm off to add more things to my 'to do' list - at least I can now cross off "blog something for chrissake".

saturday

It's sunny, it's warm, it's a non-work day. I'm off out to find some more of this stuff...

happy easter

Wishing all you wonderful blog peeps lots of love, good health and chocolate xxx

off

Thank the lordy lord I am better(ish) at last! And thank you for all your kind messages, they really helped me stop feeling (so) sorry for myself :)

It's just in the nick of time too as I am off to the country for a few days - makes me feel a bit gentrified; like how rich people go to resorts to recuperate, (but this was actually booked this up ages ago).

We're staying in deepest, darkest Somerset - lots of rural loveliness, old ruins, stately homes and Victorian seaside. My luggage consists mainly of cameras, which is fine by me!

unparty

Just a quickie to prove I do still shoot digital, sometimes.

I like the accusing stare of the masked mannequin...
