Instead I'm hanging out in my hometown staying healthy.My birthday was all things Peru.
My kids are fun and funny!
Sometimes my world gets a bit topsy turvy and I have a hard time finding balance.
Elsa and I went out backpacking. The fresh air and exercise brought me back to center.
And then the coolest things happened.
I came home from my yearly mammogram (wow, something normal happening in Oregon!) to find this box on my porch!
Oh yes, I was very curious! See my shoes? Birthday present from my hubby.
Bada bing! Bada Bing! Thank you to a dear friend! You totally brightened my day and week!
You are so special!!
I'm glad we are heading toward "normal". I went out to lunch with my son today and it was great!
And for a daily funny:

ReplyDeleteHere’s hoping you make it to the Andes one day! Until then, you have some fun new fabrics to play with and very cool shoes to take you on local adventures! This is are he’s time and aren’t we the lucky ones to have so many good friends to make it a little better?
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a wonderful birthday anyway! You did receive a wonderful surprise, didn't you?
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday :) <3 Mine was a non event.... So glad you are safe and secure. Hang in there. We all have adjustments to make and things to do when we are fully open again... BLESSINGS from Eastern Oregon!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Lori! Today is my oldest son' B'day also. I'm sorry you don't get to travel to Peru right now, but at least you and your family are healthy and safe. Be well!
ReplyDeleteSending you happy birthday wishes. Hopefully Peru will happen another time in the near future.
ReplyDeleteLove the Peruvian themed birthday gifts.
ReplyDeleteAnd the box of fabric--what a fun surprise!
Happy belated birthday from Canada! Okay! It's not Peru but it's not the States either, lol. ;^)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great package to get from a friend! What could be better? Sorry you aren't in Peru. So many plans disrupted.
ReplyDeleteLate wishes for a Happy Birthday, Lori. So sorry you didn't get to go to Peru. That would have been great fun. You children bought you some great gifts. I had to chuckle at the notice on the candy bag that said: "evitar su consumo excesivo." It means "avoid excessive consumption." I find that immensely humorous to read on a bag of candy or cookies.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great package you received from your friend, not only the contents but also the messages on the box. He/she has great taste and was sweetly generous.
Happy Belated.
ReplyDeletewhat an amazing gift box of fabric - incredible!
enjoy your new bounty
Disappointing but the Andes will be there for you when the time is right.
ReplyDeleteThe fabric gift is awesome, that would cheer me right up! Wow.
Happy Birthday, and what a wonderful surprise gift to arrive right on time! WuHan funny kitty!
