44 YEARS YOUNG

Yesterday was Helen's 44th Birthday we went to the city I bought some black fountain pen cartridge's , for my writing pen and another calligraphy pen i have had for years i think i got it of my mother but i am not sure ,and Helen bought two Banksy,s notebooks and a Filofax  with a 2013 diary insert.

We went to the Owl public house for tea Helen had scampi as always and  I had  the home made steak pie.

Well after the weekend I have a week of nights to do which Helen is dreading I am not looking forward to either but its only five shifts and i will have my phone with me and we can face time each other.

Its raining and grey the weather is depressing if the days are grey it makes you feel grey i honestly believe that things always look better on a bright sunny day , least we wouldn't have to have the heating and lights on at half past ten in the morning.the added cost of having to live in England.

Need to get out of the house and get some fresh air in to our lungs staying in gets me stir crazy , have not took any new photos recently and we have been nowhere new apart from going to Richmond a couple of weeks ago.

Eventually went out although we didn't venture that far ,whilst we was out  we did buy four Chinese lanterns to write our wishes and hopes on , before setting them alight on new years eve night .

We did a similar thing last year Chinese lanterns are getting popular we got ours from the pound shop we have to economise next year , and every penny will have to  be accounted for , and times for us are going to be difficult at best ,i am  not looking forward to 2013 it could be our worst year ever .every year seems to get harder and we never get a luck break i guess the best we can hope for is we sell our house and move on , and hopefully leave the bad luck we seem to have behind us.
