Birthday edition

 

Things are obviously a little different this year with everything around Mum's death and upcoming funeral very much overshadowing all else most visibly in lack of space in window for cards with cards for her.


I am disabled, have used a wheelchair before now so this is an apt card that reminds me of another part of my identity.

To an extent then really little has been planned with time taken up with everything around that but I did this, the recent Gorillaz album on compact disc, one of those card cover ones so I may need to put the disc in a inner sleeve to prevent it getting marked.


I also had this, the latest installment in the Now Yearbook series in its deluxe bookform edition.

I did get some new soft underwear, don't do really fancy colourful designs this year and some money from my brothers, other relatives and dad that I can buy some books or music with at some future point.

Birthday

Well its another around the sun day that we're marking on this blog today although like most things this year it isn't like it normally is with visitors coming in and going out with family to mark it

I had a number of cards,book tokens money from relatives for when the Zombie Madness is all over with and a few presents.



This years main present from mommy isn't new as such but an upgrade on something I've liked since I first had it some nine years ago where now it gets the original record covers restored and the original box set illustration.

André Previn was a very accessible and cool conductor to which these recordings remain my favourite all time set of the whole of Tchaikovsky's ballet scores. 

I do like records and this compilation by the Jazz Funk group Level 42 is a well put together summary that uses the original singles versions which is handy.

Birthday 2017

Say everybody, isn't just possible that someone has completed an twelve month arc and might still be twelve today? Stranger things have happened around these parts I can assure you!


Hmm, no better a way for this birthday adult little gurl to mark theirs with something featuring my all time favourite things, flowers, although I love football enjoying the action and being covered in mud.

I went out to lunch with Mom and my older brother locally.

Given how old I am, I do get music as presents and this special  two cd version  of an album I liked whose original copy suffered from so-called cd rot making it unplayable is something I'll treasure with its bonus tracks.

This came out last year having a couple of hard to find albums in it and two I only had on download with card replica sleeves so is much appreciated both from Mum.


 Coming soon is this, a new colouring book as I've completed my old one now and some Milk Tray chocolates from my Aunt.

Girls colouring books tend to suit me more.

I got three new books to add to my collection which will be read, a W H Smiths voucher from a member of the extended family that can be used to buy a book with and reviewed plus money from my brother.

Birthday entry

The number of times a period of fifty-two weeks elapses in my life is considerable but in truth I'm never really older is in feeling simply because I am incapable of getting older that way and in lots of ways in real life more than perhaps for some through age-regression, I remain forever young.

This return trip saw me have a good number cards from family and relatives although because here in the UK because they had Mothering Sunday on the same day that meant not just more going on it meant both Mum and I being at a joint meal.

There's a down to earth local public house here within a few minutes walk that often has people we know in so we went for a joint meal where I opted for Vegetable soup, a Turkey Roast  and Chocolate Fudge Pudding with ice cream which was delicious.

I had a book in a series that is aimed at girls and enjoyable looking at past lives.
The latest part in the Hetty Feather historical adventure series that came out late last year in big book aka Hard Back form.
They arrived by courier less than half an hour before I was due to go out!!!
I had some money from my folks a brother and an aunt which can diverted to something appropriately little and some Amazon vouchers from my older brother that I'll need to look at how to get them to my account as techno stuff just loses me at times.

I had also like a good number of Middles and Littles  the Disney animated full length emotion movie Inside/Out on dvd and a few cds although I tend to get them through across the year whereas when I was younger they tended to be more things I had at birthdays and Christmas's
I'll conclude by thanking my friends for their birthday wishes.

Birthday edition

 


Recently it was my birthday although I never feel older because for medical reason's I've never and can't really grow up as in being an adult although I can be mature and learn some new things so inevitable birthdays for me are little.

This year was no exception except for the arrival of a couple of soft bodied dolls.


Although they're not as 'classy'  as some dolls, the little loves ones are pretty good value  and my version of 'Lucy' which is 14 inches in height  was the one on the left with the big pink bow coning with a nice dress and leggings.

A nice touch is that the eyes shut when she's on her back sleeping. 

That's 'Jessica' a 18 inch Gotz soft bodied creation which being that size it's easy to get new dolly clothes for such summer outfits and school uniforms to dress her in. 

Her box was a bit damaged but she's fine so I was able to get her at a discount as after all I have dolls to handle and play with rather than that sad boxed collectors stuff that sits on shelves gathering dust.

I had some money, a few cds and finally got the outstanding Christmas present from me brother!

Birthday edition

We don't as a rule do two posts per week, that would be too much for me not least as I do work during the week but this week is different being my, Tammy's birthday so we'll mark it.


Birthdays can be trying with some folk going to "they were born a boy and all boys like...." lazy ways of thinking rather than picking a card and present based on your known likes as a sissy gurl.

While there's a pronoun error in that caption, truthfully that was always the kind of a birthday I always wanted as a child, a day where I could just be sissy me with Mummy and her friends enjoying a birthday lunch and playing in their company.

Maybe they all might grab me for a time honoured birthday spanking to make the day truly memorable?

I did have a new camera for my birthday, a Canon A470 Powershot that came out a couple of years ago with a variety of picture taking modes including video and macro stills to replace my very old digital camera as I stuck with my film one having scans made when my pictures are developed for blog use.

This will cut that delay out as they can be download to the computer and posted in seconds!

What if pictures of me all gurl'd up even having that birthday spanking were emailed to friends for posterity?

Birthday edition


It was recently my birthday so apart from having a number of cards I had some money to put toward the upcoming 1965 Beatles Capitol Albums box set as ever since I was a teen, they've been my favourite group and this set has the albums I had back then that I can get from the local HMV branch and for some more blank minidiscs for my recorder.

I bought my last one, a Sharp MDT 270H two years ago from Richer Sounds here in Stoke on Trent because it was a portable recorder that did MDLP (MiniDisc Long Play) which a few of my discs were recorded with on my second home deck I bought in July of 1999 and unlike a Sony HiMD portable I have, this at least has manual record level settings for both digital and analogue line level sources.


Birthdays with me are more like children's birthdays with little really adult in them with the same sorts of presents I had back then but could this return...
