Good morning.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME
Today I celebrate 68 years on this earth, tomorrow is the start of my 69th year. What a bonus to reach this point in my life.
I'm watching breakfast TV in bed with a cup of coffee. Breakfast is served in the dining room in 15 minutes. Mushrooms, eggs, beans and a veggie sausage. That will set me up for the day.
Weather is a bit dull, but dry so far. There will be a few showers so I'm prepared for that. Nothing will dampen my spirits today. I aim to enjoy. The car stays here and I am going for a nice walk along the canal.
Catch you later.

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Ilona! I've written that to you for many, many years now. Do hope you have a wonderful day in my area. We had family visiting from the London area at Easter. We took them along the canal to the Chirk & Pontcysllte Aquaducts and on the Railway to Corwen, Horseshoe Falls & Pass etc. We get so used to all the lovely scenery here that it was wonderful to see it all through their eyes. Pity it was so chilly & windy at times but they enjoyed themselves. We hope that you have a great time and look forward to seeing your pics. x
ReplyDeleteForgot to add my name at the end!

ReplyDeleteJean here again. Have been trying to get through to you for days but it wouldn't let me. Today it has! Is it something to do with the comment moderation thingy at your end?
ReplyDeleteIlona, Happy birthday to you! Glad you are having a lovely breakfast served by elves ;). I turn 61 tomorrow. I will celebrate your birthday today by doing a longer walk today, in honor of the walking club and your big day!

ReplyDeleteWhen I reached that age, several years ago, I was not very happy. I dreaded the digit 8 and not without cause. Looking back, I found out that the years which ended in 8 were not very good to me, to say the least. Maybe I should have consulted a numerologist, but I haven't done that. I hope and pray that the mere awareness of it will turn this digit into a lucky one for me.They say everyone has a lucky number.
Happy Birthday, Ilona. I am so glad you are treating yourself to this trip and a lovely B and B!

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday dearest Ilona, it's nice being on holiday on your birthday isn't it?

Wishing you lots of health and happiness to come,xxxx
