Anniversary time

9 months ago (November 29th - it was a Wednesday then and it is today) I found myself hiding in a nook in the museum lobby waiting for him to walk through the door. He did and my first thought was "Wow". His first word, once I plucked up the courage to come out of hiding, was "Wow". My memory may be embellishing that but wow was said and the way I tell it, it was the first word said.

It was a wonderful day, we met again the next day, we were living together within a week and were madly in love long before that week was up. He tells me he loves me every morning, every evening, every night. He rings me in the middle of the day to say it. I never ever go to sleep at night without making sure he knows I love him.



His anniversary present to me is a hard drive and network card for his old laptop so I can be mobile. My anniversary present (since I don't get 40% work discounts on hard drives) to him is a freshly baked double batch of e-nour-mous cookies. The way to a mans heart after all.....

Simple pleasures of home

The simple pleasures of a Saturday spent at home:

Moved on from the artsy clutch in Bend-The-Rules Sewing to the simple bib. My gran once gave me a bunch of snaps but I never thought I'd use them. So I kept them but threw out the instructions. Yeah, smart. I know. No idea if I set them right (and I definitely didn't do it well if it is right) but they are set and I can brag about that to everyone who will listen. And I will.


There was something on TV this morning about meerkats and Rastus was *hypnotised* by them. He could not take his eyes off them.


The sleeping beauties Dave and Ginga. Ginga keeps waking us up at 4am with cute little 'I want a smooch' antics and as cute as it is it's not as cute as it was a week ago. We end up needing major nana naps in the afternoons. He doesn't know I took this photo and is going to kill me for taking it let alone posting it. Simple pleasures baby.
