LOUNGE FURNITURE?

 

Bex sent me a few photos last night of their 'new lounge furniture'...

ABOVE: It was a Daddy & Daughter job.

ABOVE:  I'm thinking it will end up outside at some point.  Lily is clearly loving it.  A tarp over the top sometimes, and she can have a tent as well.  

And, back to today.  I am going to work on the Wonky House quilt.  Not much else on my agenda really.

Catch ya later.

ONWARD...

Well that didn't stay in the dark long did it?  My phone has been going mental all morning... social media is crazy.   

But thanks for the Birthday Wishes... 68 is better than SIX SEVEN I must say.  

Seems we are now having dinner with the kids.  How neat.  I best starve for the day so I can enjoy it.

I saw the lowest number on the scales this morning... the lowest number in about 18 years!  When we moved up here from Palmerston North I weighed just slightly more than I do now.

I'm so happy my hard work, helped by WEGOVY, is working.  And I am NOT putting it all down to the WEGOVY btw, I still have to make a very concentrated effort to eat right, exercise and avoid temptations.

Today will be a test for sure.  😂😅😏🎂

Lacy and her friend Matt called in on their way home from doing the Huks this morning.  I will be seeing her this evening for birthday dinner at Steve 'n' Bex's.  

ABOVE:  Flowers arrived from 'Toad'.  Surprised.  But happy, thank you Toad.

I did add some extra to fill up the vase.  Don't they look pretty.

I started my Christmas Wasgij puzzle.  Looks like it's a slow, lazy day.  PERFECT.  

Looking forward to dinner with the kids...  and WOW.  I really wasn't expecting all the birthday wishes/messages, phone calls etc etc!

I didn't even remember it was my birthday until last night!  

I am so delighted you all have wished me Happy Birthday, here and on Facebook, and texts, messages and phone calls.  

THANK YOU.  💜💚💓

ABOVE:  I went for a walk up 'the hill', then along the riverbank.  It is so gorgeous outside today. 

That is a Tui feasting on Kowhai nectar.  Typical it's feasting upside down.  But I'm sure you get the gist.

ABOVE: The river is quite low at the moment, but still flowing swiftly.  

Home now and time to put some face on... can't go to 'dinner' without my face on!

My birthday dinner was WONDERFUL!  Bex did so well... we had:

ABOVE: Well first off I was handed a glass of bubbly wine!  I had two glasses full, and was a very 'happy' Grandma.

ABOVE: Bex put out wraps, salads and...

ABOVE:  Chicken, Bacon and Mushrooms.  OMG,  it was delicious.

Then to follow we had a birthday cake that Lily chose:

ABOVE: After having virtually nothing sweet for 3 months, that dessert was to die for.  OMG I loved every mouthful.

I am not going to feel guilty about it either.  

After a very enjoyable few hours with everyone, we have come home to recover. lol

Catch ya tomorrow.
