I have to admit I was not in a very celebratory mood in the days leading up to my birthday, which was on March, 10. I wish I had felt a little bit more excited about the fact that I am alive and well, and lucky to turn another year older. I don’t take that…
My birthday is coming up in, oh, just a few weeks, and since I kinda love wish lists, I thought I’d put one together for my upcoming birth-aversary. Not that I am expecting you – or anyone – to buy me anything and most of these things I could probably, easily buy for myself (and…
As mentioned in my previous post, this week was my first “official” pandemic birthday. Last year, my birthday marked the last day of 2020 when Jon and I went out to dinner at a restaurant. A few days later, the world shut down. This year, I knew that it would be a very quiet, very…
A year ago, this was my birthday week, and it was the last normal week and nobody knew it. My birthday marked the last day of 2020 when Jon and I went out to dinner at a restaurant. I remember that people had started talking about the Coronavirus and that things started to feel a…
Yesterday was my birthday. Another year around the sun. If you’ve been around this corner of the Internet for a while, you know I am all about celebrating birthdays and being thankful for all the wonderful moments that each year has to offer. Is it always perfect? No. But I choose to focus on the…
I am doing NaBloPoMo this month. 30 blog posts in 30 days. Come join me. #nablopomo2019 My family Contrary to popular belief, Germans do not run around in Dirndls and Lederhosen on a daily basis, not even in Bavaria. So this is not a picture of how we usually dress. However, as it has become…
Remember when I said that I was keeping a secret? You probably didn’t notice that it was quiet around here for the last couple of weeks. I had prepared a couple of posts to automatically post during my absence (I am not always that prepared, mind you), so you couldn’t know that Jon and…
As previously mentioned, Sunday was my birthday. I don’t know in which camp you fall, if you dread getting older or if you embrace and celebrate it. I belong to the latter. I think every day is a gift, getting older is a privilege, and we should make the best of each and single day we’re given….
My birthday was yesterday. I am borrowing a post idea from Elise for my birthday celebrations this year. I have previously done a similar post, but haven’t been consistent over the last couple of years, but I enjoy looking back on my birthday and reminisce about the moments that made the last year great. So,…
Saturday was my birthday, but I made a whole birthday weekend out of it! Wouldn’t you? Friday was my RDO (regular day off) and I started the day off with a spa appointment at 10:30 a.m. I hadn’t had a facial in forever, so I thought my birthday was a good occasion to take care…
