Another Year Older

No one wants to get old, there aren't many consolations associated with old age, but I have stopped bemoaning the passing years and instead I celebrate getting this far intact - 77, yes I know I don't look it 😄 

My daughter treated me to breakfast at a lovely local tea room
followed by a bit of retail therapy


and back home these gorgeous flowers and chocs had arrived from my Aussie daughter. Another lovely birthday.

∼ Be safe and well∼

  1. Beautiful flowers, dear Polly! Happy Birthday to you! And yes, you do not look your age. :) This is a blessing. I will be 69 next month. Having breakfast at a lovely tea room sounds amazing! The chocolates look great as well! Enjoy your time!

  9. Late to the party but I do hope you enjoyed your birthday - don’t concentrate on the number of years it’s the life you led during them that matters (advice given to me by an old friend)
    Hydrangeas…..beautiful Autumn flowers. Lovely big heads for drying as reminders of the love sent your way
