WELL.. I'm on their case now! There are more to come on Saturday and then I can follow the instructions to do "something" with them xxx
These are the ones I have received..
LOVE that even though most of them struggle to THREAD ...never mind USE ...a needle they are having a go xx
While I was out this morning I found this ..

THIS MAY GET ...
.. a bit boring for some of you xx ...so.. I don't expect you to have to read it all!! lolx
I had my last night .. EVER .. last night , the regulations say you have to wear BLACK socks at all times .. seems that makes you a better nurse! SO.. my choice for last night was ..
ALSO .. the regulations say NO head gear .. SO these are what I chose to wear ..
ALWAYS the rebel xx lol x
I had my pockets FILLED with confetti by my co-workers ... it dropped out all night ..I'm sure the cleaners were cursing me this morning!! AND over the night My uniform gradually got ... adapted ..
mmm don't think that one will be going back!
This morning I was decorated with a hat .. sash and "various" adornments .. however they fell apart so I have to try and "mend" them before posting pictures! I walked .. or .. skipped through the corridors with the help of 2 others and a wheel chair to my car xx THANKFULLY they had NOT been able to find my car on the car park! I had balloons ..
Have you EVER tried to drive with a car full of floaty balloons? Its an experience I'll say that!
THIS is the rice and pasta that I found in my coat pockets..
my bag was also full ... at least 2 packets of each .. that went IN THE BIN!!..
This is how my front room looked this morning ..
I had 20 cards xx I don't get that many cards at Christmas xx Mary Berry needs to step aside because look what they bought me...
mind you I have to put it all to-gether first xx I also got LOTS of other presents ...
I NEVER knew I had so many friends xx
More tomorrow as I think you may all be asleep by now xx
I'm smiling .. hope you are too x
