Slumber Deep & The Birthday Boy

Thank you to everyone who wished me a good night's sleep on the new bed. Last night was the best night I have had for weeks, nay...months.  I slept solidly from 10.30pm to just before 6am, then snoozed until 7.20am when I heard G knocking about in the kitchen and I got up to wish him a happy birthday.  He is 69 today.  I had filched all his cards from the post in the last few days and stored them up in a secret place, then I left them out on the breakfast bar last night before I went to bed.  I treated him to lunch out today as we no longer buy each other birthday gifts. DD bought him a lovely warm hoody, a good friend gave him an M & S gift voucher and he had several scratch cards in his birthday cards (no winners but it was exciting trying).  He is dreading next birthday when he will be 70 but I will get there first on November 1st THIS YEAR. 

I simply refuse to dread it.  This year could be a much better one than the last two ( I hope!!)  Can you hear me Ernie?  My premium bonds are due a win and we could do with a nice warm bungalow with 2 decent sized bedrooms! ;)

Stay safe everyone wherever you are x

  1. Happy birthday to G, and so glad that you had a good night's sleep. I won on the premium bonds this week. I was very excited to receive the email, but it wasn't a large amount unfortunately! I'd have loved to pay off my elder daughter's mortgage and buy the younger one somewhere to live.

  4. Happy bithday to your husband-we don’t do gifts either now. We were supposed to go out for lunch but DH had a stomach upset, unusually, and felt safer at home! He will be 70 in April and does not want anything for his big number. He’s hoping we’ll be away in the motorhome so that nobody can surprise him with anything! Glad to hear the new bed worked wonders-I have recently bought bedding from Sainsbugs and it washes well.
