Birthday

Lovely lovely birthday week. . .

Truth be told, this week was, in fact, a pretty mixed bag. It started with an EMG on both hands and my left leg, which was a little like torture, except I had to pay for it and my doctor didn't get an useful intel from me, no matter how many times she shocked me or stuck a needle in me.

But the week ended with a lovely dinner at Nandu that Dan set up with good friends. (Dieting hasn't been hard, but it was wonderful to take a break for a night and eat whatever I wanted--which ended up being 4 empanadas, 2 varieties of potato salad, more bites than I should have had of Timberland's amazing steak, 2 margaritas and a thin slice of tiramisu.)



And then last night I got a whole suite of Etsy gifts from Dan made by some of my favorite folks:

Laura George. . .I already had her "tree hug" piece below, but Dan got me her bonsai tree illustration as a companion. yeah.

And Hine who I have loved pretty much since first discovering Etsy:

and lovely earrings from Lara Lewis that look like thees:

Dan is a good good man. I knew that before the gifts. . . but they didn't hurt his standing.
