Well, in just over an hour I officially turn 50!

I had a great day yesterday, my lovely brother (older, lol) took me out for lunch and then bought me a wonderful gift.

I was staying up to actually celebrate the time I was born, 5am, but I am really tired now so might not make that.

Besides, my DS wants to go out later too so have to get some kip.

I'm looking forward to another great day.

I hope your days are brilliant too, take care all. X

numberplease No need to be sorry, it's lovely to hear from you.

I do tend to carry my birthday on for a few days anyway. Being disabled I can't do everything at once and so have to spread things out a bit.

Hope you are well and your day is happy. smile X

Hi Ladies, thank you for your wonderful messages.

I have had another great day, if somewhat quieter than yesterday as I have been tired today. I have received some lovely gifts and cards though and my 17 year old actually made me a cup of tea! (I know now what that bunting was for, lol).

ninathenanna I do hope your DGS goes from strength to strength. It really is amazing what the medical teams can do. My sister was born with heart problems too when I was 15 years old and had emergency surgery at a week old so I know a little about the stress waiting to hear if all is ok. She is fine now though, a healthy 35 year old. smile

grannyactivist thank you for your comment. I don't think any of us get away with a life these days without struggle and having to fight our way through but you are right, it has been a lot of years of hard work in one way or another. Hopefully now things can ease a little, although the hot sweats have started now sad, lol.

Love to you all and it's so great how we support each other. Happy times. flowers
