My week was spent back at work after three weeks holidays. With the majority of other staff still on holidays it was a quiet week, dragged a bit, to be honest, and had me questioning my own sanity as to why I didn’t take the extra week also, but eventually it ended. Onwards and upwards.
Oh, and tomorrow is my birthday! I have ordered this from The Cheesecake Shop since I’m not making my own cake and my sons are away until the evening. Every birthday gets a cake!
This gorgeous surprise arrived at my door Saturday morning, sent by my sister and her husband:
I do love birthdays!

What I’ve been watching:
This was fantastic. Just really good, solid TV. Loved it.

Happy birthday, I hope the cake is as delicious as it looks at the photo! Did you enjoy Vinegar Girl? I have considered whether to read it or not.

Happy Birthday Theresa. I hope you have a relaxing day. The joke of the week made me laugh as it brought back memories. When my daughter was in kindy she actually wrote she wanted to be a pole dancer when she grew up. It was a family joke and she had no idea what a pole dancer actually was.

Happy Birthday Theresa!! Hope you have a lovely day – the cheesecake looks divine.
Some point later this year, you’ll be so glad you saved a weeks holiday, so a dull week at work will be worth it in the end 🙂

Yep!! Pollyanna takes calf’s foot jelly to the sick old lady. Tell you what, if I was ill to begin with, I’d start to feel better real quick if someone brought me that, just so they didn’t bring me any more 🤣
