1. On my birthday, my daughter gave me a beautiful flower arrangement. I liked it so much that I had it re-done in silk by a parent of several of my students who does this as a side business. She just sent me these pictures, and I'm very happy with it.
2. Son and daughter-in-law gave me this picture frame at Christmas, filled with several of my ECN articles. Mike hung it this week. My DIL always gives thought fun gifts, and this is just another example.
3. Went to the farm with Mike last Saturday. I was very tired, but got the chance to rest some while I was there. This blanket is what I gave Mike at Christmas. I saw the fleece at a fabric store, and it said "Gone to the Cabin" as well as "The Great Outdoors." One of my students who loves to make blankets knotted it for me to make a little Christmas $$. I took a nap under it while we were down there, and it is toasty warm.
4. I also had the energy to get to Target this week to return a Christmas present from my dear daughter, something that just wasn't going to work right. I needed a new hairdryer, so with her permission used the $$ to get a new one. And since it was a gift, I splurged on a nicer one. :-)
5. Today is my dad's 91st birthday. Happy birthday to Dad, on the slim chance that you are reading this!
