I'm doing 38 things
Dearest wren,
Popping in briefly to wish you a fabulous birthday (a bit belated). I hope it was wonderful with much piano-playing and much snuggling.
Best wishes and much love,
Luna

How I did it
It made me
grateful 
How I did it: After typing my entry for this goal, the sidebar serendipitously displayed this quote:“Life is a series of moments; to live each one is to succeed.”- Corita KentThis illustrates perfectly how to celebrate 43 years —and more— of life :) Read how I did it…
It made me
crafty
How I did it: I learned a little bit while in uni, but the real bookbinding I learned in a book with plenty of illustrations and detailed step-by-step instructions. Read how I did it…
It made me
feel hydrated
How I did it: Every morning, I fill up two 1-liter bottles with fresh water. This way, I already have my minimum "dose" ready to be drunk. I keep the bottles next to my working space to remind myself of drinking. If I finish them up and I am still thirsty, I can always grab an extra glass of water as a bonus. Read how I did it…

- SPAIN WON THE WORLD CUP!!!! WE’RE WORLD CHAMPIONS!!!
♪ Oéeeee, oé, oé, oéeeee!!! Oooéee, ooooéee!!! ♫
I’m beyond myself, beyond ecstasy. A very joyful day indeed. I don’t know what got into me over this past month, but football (soccer) definitely gets in your bloodstream!! It’ll take a while for this feeling to wane… - The new moon happened in the middle of the game, while a sun eclipse was happening on the other side of the world. How cool would it have been had it happened in South Africa instead of the South Pacific?
- After the game —and still in full euphoria—, I called a few family members, but the funniest was my brother in Toronto. He evidently saw the caller ID, and before I said anything, he screamed “Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!” to which I simultaneously replied “Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!” LOL
- Going for a midday walk during a break from the constant rain. My neighbors’ dogs joined us as usual, and they jumped over me to greet me in their excitement. Of course, my raincoat got all muddy with their paws.
In the flower fields, I spotted a bird I hadn’t seen before. I love its bright-red patches. - I’m doing a photo gig for my dad. I’m photographing some furniture and will include them in a catalog. This sort of photography is not my preferred kind, but it will bring me some extra money for my upcoming trip.
- Watching Le Tour de France and drooling over its beautiful country. I am already getting excited to go there :)
