A Day In The Life ~ November 13, 2025

 


Good morning!  I am joining up with Joyce today to document a day in the life.  I chose my birthday, Tuesday, 11/11!

I have been off work this week and woke up to this view of my kitchen.  Pretty calm, right? Ha!  
I made me a cup of hot chocolate...in my disposable cup.
Had a protein bar for breakfast
Turned my heat up because it was 62 in the house when I woke up!
I listened to Huey Lewis most of the day!
This sweet friend stopped by to bring me a drink and a cookie.
It was 11:11 on 11/11!
I met my parents for an early lunch and had breakfast food. I had sourdough toast, egg omelette with onions, turkey sausage and avocado with salsa on top and fruit. It was delicious!
I took a load of stuff I had packed from my old house to the new rental house.
My sweet Isabella sent me flowers!
My co-worker gave me Pretzel Twists from Trader Joe's.  I stopped by Starbucks to get my free treat for my birthday.  I opted for egg bites and actually had them Wednesday morning for breakfast since I knew that was moving day.
I walked next door to get my hair cut in the afternoon. I am so thankful for my neighbors!
I had a great face time that morning with Brook and then some facetime calls with some greats in the evening.  This sweet boy sang to me and I was grateful as he was the only one to sing to me and he did it unprompted :)
Wearing my 11:11 bracelet
That evening, I went to a friend's house and her son made some amazing brisket!
There was a good spread of appetizers and desserts.
Love these people!
Love my Jenn and love when she meets more of my friends!
A few friends had left by the time this picture was taken, but these are all friends I either go to church with or had at one point.  

I had lots of phone calls and texts from friends and then of course the facebook / instagram messages and sweet messages from you all!

Thank you so much for the birthday love!  Outside of one phone call with some not great news about my closing, it was a great day.  I always call this day my Happy New Year as I am beginning a new year of life.  I am ready!!!
