A busy past Two Weeks Plus My Birthday.

I said I would note what all was going on for Christmas in my HNW New Year's post. Am finally getting around to it but expect I will miss noting something or other. I am not sure if I mentioned before that Diane's sister and her partner invited us out to dinner and a nice Italian Restaurant on the 23rd of Dec. We had a lovely meal with some wonderful conversation and exchanged gifts. Wound up not leaving till almost closing time. I went home that night as Diane and I had plans for me to stay over at her place Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve was a quiet time for just the two of us. Most of the time I was wearing just my Santa hat, a Christmas tie and a sheer red thong. Diane wore less than I did. She did take pictures of me but I have not posted them nor do I expect to as the Season is over and I did post plenty similar pictures. Christmas day we slept late and lounged about in not much before going out to a Perkins for a late brunch. We had lucked out about snow as it was cold enough for the snow we got on the 18th or 19th to still be hanging around. Growing up in Wisconsin it just doesn't seem to be Christmas without snow.

The weather warmed up over the next few days. The 28th Diane and I went out shopping as it was a foggy rainy day. I told you about that trip and posted pictures of what I bought with the Gift cards in my last post.

Saturday my my Ex and her wife had us and another friend over for a small Christmas party and meal. We had a great time and exchanged gifts with them too. One item I was given was a bottle of Italian Brandy. The flavor is a bit different from any French or Californian Brandy I have had. I thought it would work well in this week's HNW - A or B theme pictures. Diane and I were pretty well partied out by this time so she drove on home and the next two days we tried to catch up on things we needed to do.

I mentioned my Birthday. It was on Sunday and we had reservations to celebrate it with Diane's sister and her partner at a different but nearby little family owned Italian restaurant. I picked Diane up about 11 that morning for brunch and we then spent the afternoon at a wonderful indoor antiques consignment mall. One of the fun things about the place is they carry a lot of artworks as well as a lot of nostalgia items. We both love to go there and we left in time to get to our dinner restaurant. The dinner was fun but very crowded. We had figured being a Sunday it would not be so. They sang happy birthday for me when they discovered why we were there. Funny thing was is that they had sung Happy Birthday at 4 other tables already that evening! After dinner I took Diane home and opened her presents to me but not before we got comfortable in not much more than skin. Went to bed early and were up fairly early for us. Lounged about with our coffee and tea like we are most comfortable doing. Wearing what we wore in bed. Sadly we both had things to do so I left earlier than either of us wanted me to.

When I got home I got comfortable in my birthday suit again did my PT and had more coffee. Then I took a bunch of pictures for HNW and did a preliminary sort for bad ones and cropped a number of the possibles. While doing finishing my PT I thought of an idea for a picture or two to include in this birthday post. I thought I looked pretty good for having just turned 73 and decided to post a picture of me doing one of my PT exercises.

I put on a thong in an attempt to be somewhat demure. This is the exercise where I maintain my range of motion by lifting my arm straight up till it touches the side of my head. I thought it shows my arm muscles off nicely and the rest of me pretty good too. As I said: Not bad for being 73.

I was going to post this one in a comment but thought what the heck! It was about my birthday so I might as well show me in my full birthday suit. BTW the weight I am using is only 3 pounds but a nice color.

If you noticed the post before without pictures I was interrupted by a phone call I had to take before I could include them.

So you all I have had a busy past two weeks with not enough sleepover time with Diane or so it seems. I expect the party pace will pretty much die for a few months so Diane and I will have more sleepovers.

I am missing having snow on the ground as the only grass covering snow we have had was the one few days before Christmas. This past week it has been quite cold and is forecast to stay so. My feeling has always been that if it is cold out in winter there should be snow on the ground. Got no snow forecast for the next week at least. Seems it has all gone to far south of us and then on East.

Keep warm and if you are cold warm up with naked or almost naked hugs.
