Well, as you all probably know if you've been reading Shannon's blog, it's my birthday today. Also John's (weird eh), but he's MUCH older than me (lol). I really hate birthdays now, so I just have present days. Much more fun and you don't get any older (I wish).
So far, it hasn't been the best. We were going to go out for dinner tonight, but now John has to work late, so it looks like I have to cook. Oh well, a nice roast and a glass (or three) of champagne and some strawberries should fix that one up. Also, the air conditioner man has been, now we are nice and warm again. Should hope so, after a bill for $450. OUCH!!
However, on a much happier note, my so-sweet neighbour, Jason, has come over and rewired all the lamps I have had sitting here waiting, so now I can get to work and make shades for them. Can't wait to get some gorgeous pink Ashwell roses on the blue ones. Wow!! Will post another pic when they're done. These will probably go on ebay, or maybe into Shannon's girlfriend's new shop. The pink is mine, he's not going anwhere. He's the one my dear daughter covets - lol. He's finally lit!
So that has definitely brightened up a very dull, dreary, cold & wet birthday.
Cheers, Coll :-}

Shann isn't the only one coveting that cherub lamp!!! Look on my blog when you get a chance ~ I'm posting some of my fav lamps. Yours would go oh-so-nicely in my home! :0)

Hi Coll,
Happy Birthday to you (I'm singing it). Sorry your Present Day wasn't better... then don't count this year at all and you're suddenly the same age for another year. I love "Good Neighbors" also... have seen all of the episodes. I also love silly old "Keeping Up Appearances"... we own all those DVDs and pop them in the TV for a laugh every now and then.
