Joe and I are back from the Chinese Restaurant. We had prawn crackers as a starter and then both of us ordered Kung Pao Chicken. We had the whole restaurant to ourselves, and it was a yummy meal. We took a lovely walk through Creeslough, and we had a wonderful time. I have included a few pics of the restaurant.
The scenery from the window was gorgeous, and the dinner was so romantic and incredible!
The scenery from the window was gorgeous, and the dinner was so romantic and incredible!This whole day has been extroardinary. In the morning, we went to a pub called McColgans and we had Irish Creams to drink. Funny enough, we had the whole pub to ourselves too, but that was because it was 10:30 in the morning. We sat in the snug area, and had a lovely time chatting. We then went to the book fair at the Workhouse, and I bought two mystery books. Then, I got my gifts from Joe and the boys, and we headed to the Chinese Restaurant. Luckily, when we were waiting for the bus to go home, a friend of mine, named Kathleen, was driving by and saw us by the bus stop, and she gave us a ride home. Perfect timing, as it was starting to rain pretty hard.
It has been such a nice day, even though I turned 59 years. My friend Kathleen said that next year when I hit 60, I should have a really big celebration. I don't even want to think about hitting the big "60" right now. All I can say today is thank you to everyone who wrote me and wished me a Happy Birthday. I can't begin to tell you how appreciative I am that you would all write to me. Every time that I left the house with Joe and we came back, there were more emails and good wishes. Thank you so much for being such good friends and blog buddies! It has really been an incredible year for Joe and me...we moved into our cottage, settled into our new life in Dunfanaghy and best of all, I have made so many wonderful friends through my blog.
That is why I want to have a giveaway in July , because I want to say thanks in a special way to all the people that I met this year as a result of starting my blog.
Thank you all again from the bottom of my heart for making my birthday even more special! Thanks also for the lovely FQ's and gifts that I received in the mail. It was all very exciting!

One thing about getting older -its just a number. Your days are spent living richly and you enjoy each and every one of them.

Happy Birthday Micki!
I recently discovered your lovely blog. Twenty-five years ago my husband and I bicycled in Ireland on our honeymoon. Great memories and hope to return after college tuition bills are over. You definitely have to make a splash of some sort for your 60th. This summer I'm celebrating my 50th by cycling 50 miles along the coast of Maine. Cheers!
Hi Micki...I notice Feedsack Fantasy said Happy Shamrocks...was wondering if that is a saying you have over there? Sounds like a blissful day...just the 2 of you in the Pub and the Restaurant. I like it that you were there at 10.30...feels really special and a good start to the day, Dzintra♥x
Peaceful, contented days like this are such a gift so its great you had one of them for your birthday! Many happy returns!
Happy Birthday Micki, although it is a little late. Hope you had a good one. Please send me your mailing addy at this email: stitchduchess2@yahoo.com and I will send you a little something.
Sounds like you had a lovely time on your b'day, fellow Gemini! Hope the year ahead is great. Your age IS just a number, at least that's what I keep telling myself. If I don't look in the mirror I can almost start to believe it!
Thanks for sharing about your special day with us! I enjoyed reading it.
Re: Creeping thyme -- thanks for the kind comment. I want to let you know that it is an evergreen! So, it takes the winter very well! :)
