I had a very nice 40th birthday this past week. I started the day off on Wednesday, with a peek at my email and found Ruthanne’s delightful surprise with the most touching comments ever. Many from my real life friends and family who never comment.
We did the real celebrating today when my husband took us to the library. I know, isn’t that the greatest birthday gift? Well, it is for a nerd like me. He also got me an external hard drive. My girls got me house shoes (slippers for those of you who don’t speak my language). Because I hate to walk around the house barefoot, I wear out a pair of house shoes at least once a year.
My mother got me a new bird feeder which I filled up right away and it has been swarmed with birds since. Pictures to come soon.
My dad sent money which got me the real Photoshop with my educator discount. I’ve been using Elements all this time. I’m wondering if it will change my life, or at least, my pictures.
I treated myself to some goodies at Hobby Lobby today. A self-healing mat and a rotary cutter plus some new, colorful fabrics for camera straps.
Next week I’m going to show you my cousin’s updated kitchen. It will be a sort of guest post from a non-blogger. You’re going to love her kitchen.
I also want to talk about my move to wordpress at some point. I’ve learned some things along the way and some people have expressed an interest.
And, eventually, I want to sit down with my husband and write another financial journey post.
Oh, I want to show you some of these pictures:
With all the giveaways last week, I feel like I’m a week behind.
Thanks for showing up in this space. I’m always glad you’re here.
