E’s birthday was done in true COVID-style, just us home alone.  I had ordered and shipped all her gifts online far ahead of time.  I made her a special dinner of items she doesn’t get to try very often, that I had stashed away from the last restock.  I baked her a sparkly chocolate cake.  At her “advanced” age, she was still able to blow out all the candles!  😉 Then we watched movies and shows, as usual.

Today I continued clearing around trees out in the “prairie”.  The weather has been much more conducive to working on my “12-step plan”.  By next spring it should have a whole new look, closer to a grove of small trees with native flowers and grasses in between.
