Happenings
Good morning! How are you?
I celebrated another birthday and it was nice! Above is a photo of all the stuff I bought while in Boston at various bookstores. These are all for me, I didn't photo the gifts I bought for others. Whenever I'm in an independent bookstore I try my best to buy something in appreciation for the existence.
Part of my birthday celebrations was to decorate the house. After 27 years we replaced one of the two Christmas trees we put up. Now I have an easy tree, it's three sections and then BOOM it's up. What a game changer for me.
My only complaint about the new tree is that the branches are droopy and floppy so ornaments slide right off unless you precariously place and balance them. These are the 'hefty' ornaments.
One of the neighborhood boys was selling homemade wreaths for the fundraiser for some sport, sadly my husband knows and I do not remember. However, the wreath is beautiful!!
It's been two weeks since I started the second inhaler that the pulmonologist prescribed and I am beginning to notice a difference. Yay. Onward and upward!!
What have you been up to this week?
Happy belated birthday, my friend! May this be the best year yet!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun in Boston (in addition, of course, to meeting your newest grandson!). What a pretty tree. So good to read that your new inhaler is working!!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday. Love your birthday treats. Can’t go wrong with books, notebooks, and pens. And good news on the inhaler. Hopefully you will be breathing easy through this holiday season.
ReplyDeleteWell, a belated Happy Birthday to you, Karen! Your tree is lovely, and the wreath is so pretty...especially against your red door! Love it! I'm glad that you always purchase things when you find an independent bookstore. I do the same because, well, I just really appreciate their sacrifice, and I feel like my money is going where it needs to go rather than a chain bookstore.
