Forty Things to Celebrate my 40th Birthday.

Its official!

I step into my 40s this month.

Historically, people do something big to celebrate. But I’m an intimate person so rather than one thing, like a big party, i have made a list thing of pleasurable ways to celebrate over the next year, some big and some small.

They fall under the categories of “engaging experiences, platonic touch, undivided attention, words of affirmation, thoughtful service, gift giving and international time”

I’ve started this go fund me for those that feel inspired to contribute a little to help make big things happen.

Birthday pleasures

2. A toasty at my favourite pub with a Guinness and bacon crisps

3. Watch “love and basketball” or “brown sugar” with someone who enjoys them and has a shared love for them.
