we took a short trip to Lille
Basically it was a shopping trip
because theres nothing much to do except shopping
and husband didnt know what to get me as a gift
so we decided to just buy anything i saw
Good news for him is that i didnt really found much things to buy
I dont know is it because i was in the no-mood mode
because the kids were supposed to be my birthday present
but it was nice to get out of normal routine.
We did visit some churchs
but it was mainly just roaming around
and the only nice thing i remembered
was this 2nd hand books place located in a courtyard
and this is where i found my coolest birthday gift
A newspaper published on the same date of my birthday
but 100years older than me!!
The rest was eating and walking around
i think im so glad that husband bought his new hiking shoes
at least he didnt complained about all the shopping!
This year winter seems to be here early
So, it was chilly with rain
that during 1 evening, i learnt my scarf to husband
and he ended up looking like a strange woman..haha
I forgot when is the last time i spend my actual birthday alone
or went to work during my birthday.
Anyway, husband had a work function in the evening
and i didnt want to take any day off
so, it was simply a normal day spent.
Except that husband woke me up early
made a special birthday breakfast for me
gave me all the presents we got from our trip
and the famous konmarie tidying book
which my friends sent me an exact copy a few days late!
Make me wonder is it a sign to ask me to clean my home more often...
Since i dont really love my colleagues
I was glad that my birthday went un-noticed till almost it was time to go
The evening was peaceful with me eating my favorite instant noodles
and husband managed to come home before midnight
to force me to eat my birthday cake...
I guess this has not been a great year
but nevertheless, i survived it...
