I won't have a computer for a while...

First off, THANK you all so much for all the Birthday wishes! AS i mentioned on my last post we haven't celebrated it, instead been too busy at the house. Hubby being away and the place where we are staying is quite small for having people around so we postponed it end of January.
This GORGEOUS bouquet of flowers was a big surprise though, hubby arrange it with Grace..Thanks so much, dear hubby!!

I really didn't expect anyone as i called all family and friends that it won't be celebrated that day but still a couple of devoted friends stopped by with these lovely, lovely flowers!!

A big big surprise from Julianne too that day is this beautiful ornament and when i got log on my pc that night the first message appeared was from Julianne with a Gift Certificate to order some stash, quite a huge amount-oh my i feel so lucky and spoiled!!So generous of you, Julianne ...Thank you so much!

Received this lovely ornament from Tiinna( no blog), Thank you so much.

So glad to hear this pinkeep arrived safely in Canada after a week while a couple of gifties to the U.S.A still haven't been received while it is nearly three weeks now. Just hope they will turn up eventually!


A couple of pics of last weeks works at the house. Painting still going on till today and probably tomorrow too.


I had started transferring some of our things today and more on tomorrow, might be everything too including the pc...then we won't have internet until hubby gets home the 7th of January!! Sure gonna miss it but i don't know how to connect it at the house.

Until then...HAPPY NEW YEAR to all and best wishes for 2011!!!

Beatiful flowers, lovely presents and beautiful ornament.

I also have mail traveling to the US for almost a month now, I hope at the end they will al arrive and won't get lost due to the chaos caused by the weather.

Your house is almost there in the finish, it really looks great now!
