Today was my birthday. I didn’t take a single photo which is most unusual but sort of OK too.
Flowers in the morning from my lovely friend Tiffany
Songs at midday with dearest Pep
Chocolate brownies in the afternoon with Me Myself I – making them not eating! (well, ok, I tried one)
Walks and walks and walks with Bonnie Blue and Duna at regular intervals
Messages, cards and phone calls from wonderful friends throughout the day
And winks from a stranger in a restaurant at night
All this made it a good day which was a relief to us all as the pre-birthday blues were rather extreme this year. Does anyone else feel awful the day before their birthday?
It is also the birthday today of 15M the protest movement in Spain. A whole year has passed since the indignats camped out in Plaça Catalunya in Barcelona and in other Spanish cities. I can hardly believe a whole year has passed by so fast.
Happy happy BIRTHDAY!!!!!!
So glad I’ve gotten to know you this year.
Hope the next is better still.
Hugs,

So glad you had a happy day Kate! Thanks for email – I HAVE got your address right, so if card not there already it shortly will be! Alas, no letter, as running late to get to the post as usual…!
Oh, Happy Birthday! Sorry if I missed it by a day…and yes, I do have those funky blues before. My birthday is at the end of summer and I often start feeling that way knowing that the best weather is behind me and I am looking at 6 months of gray and snow. The last two birthdays were particularly icky though. I am glad you had some nice moments during yours today.
Sent you a lovely jacquilawson card, Kate. Hope you are enjoying your special day.
Love and hugs
