Today is my birthday, and for those who are following my blog, you may have read that I was hoping for a drill because mine had stopped working. But my fiance thought that a drill wasn't appropriate birthday gift because it's something we both would use, so instead I got a DREMEL TRIO!!! Yippee! I am so pleased with my new tool. My fiance's rationale on this tool was that it was something only I would use, so it was okay to give this as a gift! Well sweetie I don't understand the rationale, but thank you very much. In the meanwhile, he still bought a drill for us both to use!!! Go figure! So now I have no excuse for finishing my garden shed. A drill was the only thing holding me up.
I also got a wonderful miniature gift from my fiance's brother and his wife. They always seem to find me the most unusual and wonderful miniature items. This time they found a group of 12 miniature pewter chairs that were meant to be dining placecard holders. The would work perfect in a 1/24th scale setting. There is three of each style in the box. Now I have to put some thought into where I can use them. I've never done a 1/24th scaled scene before. But it's the first time for everything.
Now I have to go and do some trial work with the Dremel Trio before we go out to dinner!! I am so pleased with my new gifts!
