So...I'm now another year older. Can not believe that I am actually 47 😒.
Last night Paul was here as he had a conference today in Taunton - and Andy didn't get home until about 9pm....but we sat and had a really good laugh, a few drinks and take-out! So that was really nice.
This morning - I got up and opened my presents off Helen and Paul that Paul had brought last night. I did extremely well!! I got a moisturizer, a bottle of rhubarb vodka, some bath bombs especially for runners (epsom salts) some weird bubble things in different flavours that you add to prosecco, and a cool hoody that says - I was normal 3 cats ago! hahaha!
Then I got some awesome pressies off Andy! I got a medal holder for running medals! I need to get some now! I got some really cute signs - one of which was so touching that I totally filled up!!
This was one of the really touching signs:
and this was the one that made me cry:
This made me emotional because Andy always tells me things like this! I love him so much!
This is for my medals:
I can't seem to turn it around!!
I Also got some rhubarb and ginger gin - the same one me and our Joanne managed to drink almost a whole bottle of in one night! A picture about running with different running termonology just as Grunpy - when you cant run because you are injured! lol. I am grunpy at the moment - especially because he got me this awesome gadget - where you have 2 pods - one goes on your foot and one on your chest and it analyses everything about your running and coaches you to improve things! Unfortunately however, one of the pods does not seem to be working and I've had to get in touch with the company - they have not replied yet...
He also got me a polar foot pod which will connect to my watch - which is very cool! I love seeing stats and stuff! I got a book about running too, with a load of different running workouts!
I got a pair of period knickers off Lissa hahahaha really made me laugh when I opened it - because this is what I told her I wanted when she asked me. I'm sure they will come in very handy!! lol
I got £20 off Andy's parents which is super sweet of them....
We then went to Running Needs and I got the latest version of the running shoes I have been wearing for the past 2-3 years. They are amazing!!! So - I have all this new running stuff and I can't go running because of my stupid hip!!!
When we got home I had a parcel off Lissa - it was Lush stuff off all 3 of the kids - it had been left in the porch and the porch smelled amazing when we got home lol. I love lush stuff! I also received a £25 Dunelm voucher - with no name on it - but I suspect it is off my mum and dad! I've put a post on facebook asking whoever sent it to let me know who they are! Don't wanna say to my mum - did you send me this - for her to say no.....
Another good but slightly worrying thing I got through the post was a cheque off Water 2 business (water rates) for £305! Problem is - we are not a business, and I told them that when we moved in - and we have only ever paid them £304....so they have sent me more money than I have ever paid them! this came with no explanation at all!
So - I now need to go get ready as we are going out - but I'm getting a super purry cuddle off Mercky....
Okay so I got ready - and we got a taxi into town - and had a few drinks - then went to The Skewer House - which was pretty awesome! Had awesome chicken on a skewer with sides of chips and hallumi - hollumi - omg cannot spell it! halloumi?
I ate way too much - but did stop myself finishing food that was just toooo much! We then went and had another couple of drinks:
We then got a taxi home and Andy beat me at pool because he is cruel! I think he did try and throw the games so I'd win - but I was too rubbish and drunked!! All in all I had an awesome day! A very happy birthday!
