I miss it every year, but yesterday was this little blogs 3rd birthday. Gosh they grow up so fast, don't they? sniff sniff...
Actually it was my birthday the week before last too. Both event's passed by without too much fuss or grandeur, which is fine... mind you there was no cake for either birthday... which, come to think of it, is not so fine, it's no good at all. I must rectify that. Girls and blogs need cake!
Mr You shocked me with his gift... a violin!!!! Shit! I know I'd been banging on about wanting to play fiddle for ages, but the reality of actually having a real one terrified me. I guess he has some faith that I'll be able to learn it, either that or he got sick of me air-fiddling... a move I'm sure he's partly regretting now he has to listen to the pained screeches of this fine instrument as I practice each evening. My fear and apprehension has turned to nervous fits of hysteric laughter when I try to play. It sounds terrible. It's so bad it's hilarious. I need lessons. And a violin mute has been ordered and is on it's way :)

Happy birthday to you and your blog! What a great gift for you (but maybe not so much for Mr You)... Violins are such beautiful instruments, although if I tried to play one I'm sure I could change that VERY quickly!
Happy belated birthday, and to your blog too! Sounds like you got a whollup of a gift. How fun it will be to learn to play the fiddle. Good thing you ordered a mute...the bigger the better. And if that doesn't work, a shed out in the back yard often helps ;)
Have fun! I wish I could help you out with those lessons.
Happy Birthday to you and your blog! I am sure you will be fiddling away happily in no time.
Happy Birthday (to you and the blog) and well done on the fiddle. We have just had a saxophone added to our household and it is definitely requiring a few lessons - for the sake of me and my neighbours!
Good luck!
Happy birthday - to both you and the blog!
both birthdays are so important! happiness to you and just keep up the practice! those catwailing sounds will be music soon... i just know it!
xo
and many happy returns of each day to you dear flossy!
susan
happy birthday for both of you... and earplugs for Mr You and the cute cat... Ha ha... :)
Happy Birthday...to you and your blog! I'm so glad you're both alive and kicking. Please remedy the cake situation soon. Good luck with the violin, I never tried it, but I play other instruments...the first few months are the worst...but it gets better. I'm sure you'll be making beautiful music in no time!
Happy Birthday to Flossy the Fiddler. Cake is def in order, probably two cakes since there was a delay. That's my kind of thinking...
Happy B-Day!
This is so odd....my hubby John, got a violin given to him on Sunday evening from my son.(he bought it at a garage sale)
Hubby played as a child and has always wanted to get back to it.
I am sure you will enjoy it a lot.
Good luck to you with learning how to play!
Happy birthday to both you and your blog. Have a fabulous time playing with your violin. What an amazing birthday surprise!
