Lockdown Birthday

Today has been my birthday.  The last couple of years I have treated myself to a restaurant lunch, but not today (for obvious lockdown reasons!).

I've had a lovely quiet day, sitting in the sun, catching up on my journal, and answering all the lovely messages I have been receiving all day.

Son and granddaughter made me a birthday cake.  Even in lockdown, a birthday can be a great day 💖

Enjoying my birthday cake

I hope everyone else has had a great day too!

Margaret.

  4. Happy birthday! I had mine at the end of February, but since we are not given to celebrating such events, the day was spent pretty much as any other. Your cake looks delicious.

  12. Hi Margaret – I saw your comment on Shammickite’s blog. Happy birthday to you! Mine was last week, March 26. I also spent it at home, but I baked my little cake because both my daughter and son-in-law are physicians and since they treat people with the virus they don’t come to see me anymore. Your heading photo is so peaceful and beautiful. I hope soon we’ll have happy times again outside with nature.
