... really great giveaway all darn week but I have been waiting for an adaptor plug to arrive. I ordered the adaptor plug which will turn an American plug into a British one via this adaptor thingy. Anyway I ordered it on Thursday of last week and it was from a company here in England and at the same time I ordered a car charger for my cell phone from Hong Kong and a Supreme Slider from the States.
Well the Supreme Slider arrived from the States this morning as did the Car Charger from Hong Kong but not the adapter from England. If it doesn't arrive tomorrow I shall phone them and give them what for.
Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow and I can let you see my wonderbubble giveaway.
On my name front I have decided to quit trying to get anyone here to call me Patricia. It just isn't working so I quit. I will remain either Pat (which I hate) or Patti (which I don't hate but I'm too old for it) until then end. Only my Aunt and cousins call me Patricia. Just thought I would let you know.
See you soon
Patti xxx
American by birth and MOUTH
but British in every other way
Guess two for three isn't too bad, but it is still frustrating.
ReplyDeleteMy relatives call me Pat too - short and sweet even though it is my middle name.
Fico imaginando BOCA....Você só pode ser PATRÍCIA mesmo.BeijoGRANDE.
ReplyDeleteI am Judith but no one calls me that. So I have been Judy for all my life. It is hard for people to change what they have called you for many years. Just pick different battles Patricia and have a super nice day.
ReplyDeleteI think people call others by what they first know them as, once fixed in the grey matter it's difficult to change. Tims sister changed her name from Rosemary to Juliet!
ReplyDeleteYes I know that name thing. I prefer Gene, but long time friends, co-workers and family call me Eugene. I will be happy to call you Patricia.
ReplyDeleteI can also commiserate about the name thing. Even though I introduce myself as Deb, people always reply with Debbie (which I hate!) So much for listening skills!
