But oh boy, you spoiled me with all the lovely suggestions I got in the mail!
A very big thank you to everyone who took the time to think about something fun to do and send me a card. I really enjoyed opening the mailbox & reading all these suggestions:
- A visit to a wellness center and totally spoil yourself
- A worry free day
- A spoil-yourself-day, lots of great food & fun
- Distribute colorful helium balloons with inspirational quotes & wishes to complete strangers
- Go scuba diving over some coral reef
- Go to a yarnshop & spoil yourself rotten
- Visit a museum
- Bake a cake
- Paint a picture
- Call a friend
- Take a walk
- Spend time with those you love
- Go to a fun swimming pool
- bring food to an animal shelter
- Go to the movies and get the largest popcorn box
- Open a special e-mail account & postbox for future birthday messages
- Visit the Handmade & funky X-mas market in Amsterdam
- Have a crazy hairday/get a new color
- Buy cake/Eat cake
I've been resting all day yesterday in the hope that I would be OK to go out & have some fun. Alas, I feel like a dishcloth, my nose is red, I'm coughing like an old man who smoked all his life & my throat hurts horribly.
So I'll take it easy and go for the 'buy cake/eat cake' option.
That way I can still veg out on my couch , watch some movies and stuff my face.
Anyway, the suggestion came from Anna Ruby King so she can expect the feeling 'special' in her mailbox soon...
Congrats Anna & if there's any cake left, I'll send you some to go with that! ;)
Ow, dear Mitsy. Feel bad for you. Hope you'll feel better soon. Hopefully you'll still be able to enjoy the cake though ;)
ReplyDeleteTake a good rest and let yourself be spoiled by your husband.
Beterschap! xxx
Birthdays are important even when you're sick so I think eating a cake is a nice way for you to celebrate. :) Get well soon and happy birthday dear Mitsy!
ReplyDeleteOh, Mitsy...I'm so sorry to hear that you aren't well on your birthday. :(
ReplyDeleteYour birthday cake IS lovely, though, and you probably are well overdue for a day of pure indulgences!!
Best wishes always!
Hugs-Heather

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry that I didn't get to send you a card... it's no excuse really, but I haven't had a chance to much except work lately.

Happy Birthday Mitsy and get well soon! I've been struggling with flu this week as well, not fun at all. It's getting better now, yours will pass soon too:)
ReplyDeleteps. you really picked the best one!
Happy happy birthday Mitsy!! Eating cake is the best idea for sure! It reminds me of Marie Antoinette...although apparetly she never said 'Let them eat cake'. Anyway, lie on the couch like a queen and eat your beautiful cake!!

Happy Birthday and hope you feel better really soon. It's not fun being sick on your special day. and i guess we all have to get greyer and get more wrinkles. I'm not happy with that either . Seems like everytime i look in the mirror there i spot another grey one. Yuck....
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your cake
Hugs
