Glorious Day!
Jun. 19th, 2021 02:51 pmIt has been such a good birthday. In addition to the lovely gifts I've already mentioned in previous posts, ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
misbegotten sent me a beautiful postcard and some bath bombs from Lush. They are indeed luscious. I've never lived near a Lush and so did not realize what I'm missing out on. I got a birthday card from decynthus and birthday messages on DW from many of you. Thank you so much, everyone. <3
Josh and the kids outdid themselves. Josh got me a lovely bouquet of flowers (I felt like Clarissa Dalloway) and a spa gift certificate which is perfect because I have been thinking I'm going to want to get my toes done and maybe a massage before I start back in fall. Emma took Fiona to Wal-Mart and they got me a beautiful journal (pen and gear brand) with a gorgeous green faux leather cover imprinted with a botanical design. And fountain pens work on this paper! I am shocked; zero show or bleed through with any of my pens, even the broad nib. None of the markers I tried showed through either. The paper is absorbent so there's some feathering and no sheen or shading of inks, but that's fine. I'll be able to write on both sides of the paper with any of my pens. Hurrah! They also got me some bath happies (a face mask, a foot mask, a bath bomb).
I woke up this morning to an email from Brad Dowdy that I'd won the latest PenAddict giveaway of a set of the newest Zebra Sarasa R Gel pens. How wonderful is that? Not only did I win but on my birthday!
