Come in 89

It's my blog birthday on Monday, starting my 7th year,

Last Sunday, I put everyone's name, who had left a comment in January,

 into a random selector

  number 89 was chosen, here is my list and 89 is mum

I have been reading through your blog and I now have a parcel to post to you

please email me your address

 Ops I've done it again

The male skater should have a darker red outfit

but I chose the blue instead

I stitched loads last night, whilst hubby watched the rugby

1st half he was happy

2nd half grumpy

 We popped to Homebase today, hubby needed supplies

I saw this pot, it's huge, really beautiful and perfect for my Olive bush. I have a couple smaller ones which I will use in the garden as well. 

 For now it sits in my shed, as you can see it's pretty full in there, roll on spring, 

I can use every thing again. I am really itching to start growing, 

but I know I should wait a couple more weeks. 

 I spent the morning with Su, looking at curtains, poles and table lamps. She was disappointed she could not get the mirror she was craving, but happy to wait for it to come back into stock. Once home we opened an expensive pair of curtains, only to find a flaw in the center of one curtain. As I came home she was driving back to the shop. 

The heart below she purchased for me. 

  I have been working on my 2014 book, I am now at July, I am hoping to get it all done before the end of the month.
I have had all my normal security clearance and references through for my new job. Yesterday I did the enhanced questions, and boy do they want to know everything. I did chuckle at the questions, have you ever been involved in terrorist activities  and other questions ref money laundering and embezzlement, can you ever see anyone answering yes to questions like that.  My hope is to have the rest of this month off and then back to work in March. I am lucky to be able to have breaks in my earning, it's nice to have a few weeks off and get things done.
Now a nice take away, stitching  and a night in with hubby, no wine we are having a dry February, not that we drink large amounts. Not sure about tomorrow, will see what the day brings.
