Mm Links November 2013 Week 4
Good Morning, Princess Di greeting you all for the penultimate time this month.
November is fast disappearing and soon Christmas will be beckoning.
I have managed to get birthday/Christmas lists from two of the 4 Granddaughters all of whom have their birthdays in November and December. Most inconsiderate of their parents!
The elder 2 are quite happy to have money which they can then spend during the coming year, but the younger 2 still have a list of what I would consider mostly junk. They all get far too much these days.
As University will be looming in the next year or so, money is always a good thing for them as costs hit the roof for education. How lucky I was to have free University education and I even got a small grant as well. I’m not sure that any of them have decided on a career yet but there is plenty of time. I didn’t set my sights on Dentistry until after I had left school, which if you consider the family history of Dentists, is strange. (we now have 4 generations of dentists). Never mind, I never regretted my choice of career.
Prince John’s birthday comes a full 9 weeks after mine, yes! I have a toy boy, but then so does my daughter and just to cap it all, my son is a toy boy as well – it must run in the family!!
Granddaughter number 2 shares a birthday with Prince John, so there is usually a joint celebration at some restaurant in Durham. This year we are going to have an early party as our restaurant of choice isn’t open on Mondays. The choice is usually left to G D.No.2 so we will be keeping our fingers crossed that all is well.
