I got a letter from the GP saying I need to make an apopoitment for my swine flu injection. I threw the letter in the bin. I dont like injections, I haven''t shown up from the normal flu injection yet and it''s almost summer..

I got electricity bill.

Then I got a parcel from middwillow- cross stitch magazines and goodies and was so excited. I had planned on doing housework but gave up on that idea and read the magazines instead.

I also got a kit i bouhgt, the "" hang in there"" kitty one. So cute

and aida I got from ebay, the DMC impressions and Zweigart marble effects one and they are so pretty. I think they are too pretty to use. I just like staring at them at the moment.

today its the drivers and collectors, tomorrow is the delivery staff,

i got the park catalogue for 2010. gonna buy some vouchers, slow and steady

I didn't get anything - mine's on strike!

Mine must be too.

Sorry forgot to post this. This bag will help when I'm shopping for stash

That's lovely. I like the storks design.

Really beautiful. And you can put a LOT of stash in it

nice bag

my wedding shoes came today

I order a bunch of stuff from Amazon and it's all getting shipped in separate packages from different vendors so I have a lot of packages coming. Yeah! (it beats bills). The first box arrived and it's a couple of books. Beyond Armageddon and Metropolis. Some of the other packages are cross stitch related, but I'll tell you what those are when I receive them.

what an attractive bag with those stork scissors on it!

I got a letter from a recruitment agency I must've signed up with when I was working in a payroll office, advertising a job in a different payroll office. Now, I stopped working in the payroll office (and moved to a GP's surgery, yes I've had some fairly wacky career changes) 6 years ago and haven't heard anything from this recruitment agency in the intervening years...how much money must they be wasting sending out letters to others like me!

I got my 8" Q-Snap frame. Yeah!

My fabrics from the Craft Company and two spring hoops

6, yes, 6 peices of hand dyed fabric from silkweavers, SQUEAL!!!

Oooooooooh lovely -- what colours? Any opalescents?

I got some red 18ct Aida in preparation for some Xmas projects
Some pink 18ct Aida for my step daughter

Also got some waterproof overtrousers, cos I'm hoping to get back on 2 wheels by Xmas
A replacement pair of headphones for my MP3 player
And a DVD player to catch up with all the unwatched movies that I've got at home

5 opalescents, one not, three are "solos" or unique peices, and one is a colour that I absolutely love... now if only I had a phoenix I could stitch up on it, it would be perfect!

I'll get a few pics up

Tom's birth certificate.
I had to get a copy as hubby decided ages ago to laminate the original to keep it from getting damaged, only to discover it's now no use as a legal document. So we needed a copy to send off with his provisional driving license application.

@ hubby

Kathryn, they sound absolutely lovely! Didn't Midge or CC or both do a phoenix some time ago? They may be willing to lend you the chart!

I got a card from postie saying tried to deliver parcel. Been on line and asked for it to be delivered Saturday, but I think thats the day delivery men on strike, don't know when I will get my parcel.
