To celebrate, we lunched at Goody's in Toogoom.
Adoring Husband enjoyed a SurfnTurf and I ordered a GF Salt and Pepper Calamari with sweet potato chips and salad. It was delicious, but too much for me to finish and AH ate half of it for me.
It was disappointing because I so wanted dessert, but my belly just couldn't accept another morsel of food.
We had a couple of errands to run in The Bay after lunch so while we were there, we decided to have a look at some beds and bedroom suites. Our bed is 16 years old now and fading fast. Our biggest decision is whether to purchase another mattress and base, or an entire bedroom suite.
We found a delicious king sized bed that when I lay upon it, felt like I was floating on a cloud.
It was crossed off our list when the price was revealed. $12,000 - yes that is twelve thousand dollars just for a bed. I remember two years ago we looked at a $16,000 bed - one of which Beyonce (apparently) owns. It was half price at the time, but for us, still too expensive for a bed.
We also searched for an outdoor bar setting, but were unsuccessful in our efforts.
I got a few more canvasses and acrylic paints so that I can play some more.
We got back to town early enough to get coffee and to drop in to the shop to see The Motivator.
Earlier in the day, I had attended meditation and had picked up my birthday parcel from the post office. The one that BGWLBH had sent.
Unfortunately, I was running late for my date with AH so I had to wait until the end of the day to open it. You need to understand that our gifts to each other are not just one gift. It's multiple gifts with little tags that explain why the gift was chosen.
It's a journey that takes a good half an hour and needs to be savoured and enjoyed. It can't and shouldn't be rushed.
Here are just a few of my pressies ...
I think my favourite is the golden staff, which is very appropriate for this Queenie!
Anzac Day tomorrow and The Happy Abode is placing a wreath, so I'd best get some sleep so that I can be fresh early in the morning.
Nite all.
