This is my latest sketchbook page-me on the first day of being 44. I got 88 claps at work today from the children (morning and afternoon) -we always give them 4 big or small claps as part of birthday fun-so I got mine too! Chloe sang 'How old are you now' to me and Nicole sang 'If you're happy and you know it'. I was touched!
My Mum and brother came up for the day yesterday so we had a little trip to Greenwich. This doll caught my eye-she reminded me of Maggie Thatcher. All she needs is a solid handbag and a high pitched and strident voice and she would be there. I do like her blue eyes though-her staring, scary eyes.
Scary doll bookmark!
A lovely book my friend Jessica sent me (via Amazon-so an unexpected surprise!) It is really great and very inspiring.
Just one choice page from a great book of 'Comical Signs For The Workplace'.(From Marianne at work) Sometimes these gimmicky things can be a bit naff but this is genuinely funny. I may share more at a later date. Thanks everyone who visited the party at the weekend. I ran out of time getting round and about but intend to catch up later in the week.

Happy Birthday!! Your cake looks fab.
The last picture reminds me of a drama teacher at school. He has a mug with 'I pretend to work' on it. Hmmmmm....

Happy, happy Birthday, Sarah! I just turned 42 last week. No one clapped, but my guy baked me a cake.
Your Greenwich day sounds lovely! That doll DOES have a bit of a Maggie Thatcher look about her. She's one that I would've had to turn facing the wall every night when I was a kid.

Hi, Sarah! Happy Birthday! :-)
Happy Birthday! yummy looking cake! :O)
Happy happy Birthday, Sarah! The cake looks great... wow, and the next project as well. How sweet those kids you teach are. They surely love you --
Say, now I can write down your b'day so I can get it going on here on THIS side of the Pond.
Take care!

Hi Sarah - as soon as I saw the card I thought of you - I could just picture you in the summerhouse crafting away, with Andy sitting in the deckchair - possibly sipping a glass of wine!! Love, Anne
Happy Birthday, belated, Sarah! Looks like much celebrating and fun in general happening there. :o) That doll is terrific...eerily it does look a bit Maggie Thatcher...LOL! The last days I've been a bit MIA too... I've been in a bubble for a few days now--hubby & I have been up to our elbows in some interior painting & wallpapering. Finally back in blogland and catching up. Happy week, my friend ((HUGS))
