Now I'm sixty. And it seems to be the best time in my life. It has never been this great. Not even in my childhood. There was a veil of sadness over my life that isn't there any more and that I got rid of not until I was in a mature age. It did not even concern me! I just shared the trauma of my family.My parents in law gave me a value certificate for a clothing shop for larger sizes. Black jeans, raspberry top, sky blue cardigan. While trying things on, I noticed that I lost weight. One size per year. Just through renouncing on sugar and taking dry fruits instead. -- I started a new embroidery: "The path to the truth", as J named it.

Lovely flowers from a lovely hubby.
Your needlework is exquisite, as usual.

What a beautiful bouquet you received from your husband! Here's to you having a wonderful day and a bright future. New clothes always make me feel great, hope they do you too, the colors you picked out are yummi!
Oh, dear, I have not caught up till 3 days later and I missed your big 6-0.
I see that it was happy and the flowers are beautiful! Wish I could lose weight -and I don't even eat sweets.
So glad you are in the best time of life; I expect having found your soul mate has something to do with it.
Wishing you a decade that gets better and better each day.

Rayna
