Yes, it is good to have my parents and sister close by, but even though we live within 10-15 minutes walking distance, due to work and so many other things going on we do not see each other as often as we'd like to. All the more important are such special occasions to remember.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-82038387395189832902018-04-05T18:11:37.586+02:002018-04-05T18:11:37.586+02:00Meike this was a birthday to remember and thank yo...Meike this was a birthday to remember and thank you for taking us all along with you. I'm reminded of my own 50th which was spent quietly with my beloved parents who had generously paid for my flight from California to Florida and a week with them at the beach. (I miss these two every day.) I especially love how close you are to your Mum and Dad and how fortunate to live close by. Best wishes to you and OK.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791018174075586241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-26855139875937698912018-04-05T07:09:22.243+02:002018-04-05T07:09:22.243+02:00Jenny, I never expected so many gifts and cards, e...Jenny, I never expected so many gifts and cards, especially as many of those who sent cards were also there for the party, plus I had said on the invitation that they need not think about presents!<br />Yes, it is humbling to know so many people care about me.<br />The bill wasn't too bad; the landlord and I had agreed on a rough sum before, and the result was a mere 10 euros above that :-D<br />Plus I have been working hard all of last year and got a nice bonus, which I mostly used for that purpose.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-34724796431900915062018-04-05T07:06:28.178+02:002018-04-05T07:06:28.178+02:00Thank you, Kristi!

I am lucky in that I live in a time and place where I can pretty much choose my own lifestlye; what to do for a living, where to live (and who with).
