Shirley touching base

Been busy since New year. First I had 5 hospital appointments. I am coping well with the diabetes but not had any results back from the heart tests yet.

I have been busy making all the wedding stationery for GD forth coming wedding. All the church and evening invites, order of service, menu's and place names.

I have to do her 3 tier cake and have got the cake stand and the flowers she wants ready.

We are also celebrating that the same GD has just got her Master's degree in Nutrition at the age of 23. We are happy for her.

Our eldest son ( my computer man) is going back to deep sea trips tomorrow. We shall not see him for 3 months. No trips to the ship for lunch like we did on his previous ship. Just hope my computer behaves. Just as a back up he gave me his old lap top that he rigged up for me to be able to get emails and newsgroups. Also I have my old computer in the next room for doing my craft works.

Not been able to do much beading but I need to talk to GD to ask about what jewellery she would like to wear with her wedding gown. I have loads of vintage crystal necklaces that I can take apart to do something with. Some of my finds from antique fair forages, when I was searching for Shirley's Spoons.

Well I think that is me up to date. Must get on. DS is coming for his last Sunday lunch for awhile and I want to make his favourite egg custard tart for dessert. Hugs to all Shirley

Shirley, what date is your GD's wedding? Our daughter is 10 March. I am making a bun wrap and necklace from crystals and pearls. It will seem real when they arrive from UK. Ngaire comes 27 Feb and Paul two days before the wedding. He is playing a game of soccer the night before he leaves.

We just want a happy day and if things go wrong it will be a memory, good or bad. Gran is almost 88 and has loved getting her garden ready-with help from family.

Cheers, Jan

Shirley,

So glad ot hear from you! I've got a new job, so I"m not home during the day anymore. Maybe we can arrange a convenient time on the weekend to Skype chat?

Enjoy the preparations for the wedding! I'm sure you and the family are very excited.

Love, Barbara

So much news, Shirley! Glad to hear that your diabetes is still in check and I hope your heart tests come back with good results!

Congratulations on your GD getting married! It sounds like you've been very, very busy and I hope things continue to go well with you. {{{{Shirley}}}}

Yes it would be nice to chat on Skype again. It is very rare for me to go out on a Sunday. Only usually go out Sat morning and in the rest of the day.

David bought me a new headset but I have to work out the mute button yet.. Grandson cannot hear me but I can hear him but he rings of before I can sort the buttons out. Dratted child!!

Any one else out there who uses Skype. Shirley
