More Presents and My Blain




Yesterday afternoon I received a couple of more birthday presents see these ones lucky me so now I have luggage to go on holiday with and a new bag to boot, I love this little pink bag I don’t usually do little bags in fact I have large bags that I carry everything par the kitchen sink in………………..lol

However Kathy-Lee thought it would be a nice bag to take on holiday with me as she said I won’t need to carry around so much just my purse and my phone in fact I will not take my normal purse but think I will look and see if I have a smaller one that I can just put my licence and some money in instead.

Tonight we will have our grandson Blain here for the night and I will take him to school in the morning his mother’s car is out of rego till tomorrow, and Tim has said that he doesn’t want her to use the credit card for her rego any more he thinks and I agree that it is time the girls start trying to find the money to pay for their cars registration without relying on him…………….I know it is not easy for them but I also know that they are now in their 20’s and should be able to find the money on their own.

Jessica is feeling like shit so I told her if she wants both her and Leo can stay tonight but I will have Blain so she will have to decide if she wants to be around both the boys as they can be a real hand full when they are together………………………lol

  1. What terrific presents! Your trip to New Zealand is going to be smashing. I'm like you in that my purses are very nice, but they're usually large shoulder bags. I'm not sure I could do with a little one. Love the color and style of yours-

    1. I wouldn't be able to manage with a small bag on a day to day basis, it just wouldn't hold everything...........lol

  2. Great luggage and the purse is cute but I'm with you about the size. That is especially true on a trip. You will need space for a camera and all those cool things you may need or buy... Just saying. :))).

  6. Happy Birthday! It looks like you received some great present especially that little pink bag! Thats amazing Tim surprised you with a trip to NZ and you can now start packing in those suitcases :).

    I agree with Tim, its time the girls stood up on their feet and paid their own way since they all live in their own places now. Even though I live at home I've always had to pay my own mot, road tax and car insurance.... even my own cars which all adds up. If I couldn't afford it I just didn't have a car and walked.
