Answered prayers: Topping my list are answered prayers. Time to celebrate answered prayers. I have a list of requests I've brought to God, and I know without a doubt He's responded. Please join me in praising Him for His faithfulness.
Nature Reserves: Visiting some Nature Reserves. I'd absolutely love to visit at least two (or even three!). I'm working on a birthday itinerary, and the ones I'm planning to see are Loch Leven, Inversnaid Nature Reserve, and Black Devon Wetlands. My RSPB membership will make it super easy, too. I might even spend my birthday in a nature reserve – not sure yet.

Roxy 60's Style Retro Five In One Record Player System: I am totally eyeing this Roxy 5-in-1 Music System! I've always wanted a record player; I just love them, hahahahha, don't ask me why – I don't know, but I do. I love that it perfectly blends retro 60s style with modern tech like Bluetooth, plus I can finally play all my old vinyl and CDs. The ability to convert records to MP3s is a huge bonus too! This one is by Not On The High St.

Women's Downpour Tall Wellington Boot: As you know, I visit nature a lot, and having a long black rain boots that are solid is an absolute must-have for me. I have the short rain boots, but these long ones are so lovely and would offer way more coverage.

Day-Vine Beige Crystal Slingbacks: Okay, so these Beige Crystal Slingback Heels? Love at first sight! It's the whole package for me: the transparent heel, the sleek slingback style, that gorgeous beige, and naturally, the sparkling crystal design. Super practical too with the buckle fastenings and gripped soles. And a comfy 3.5" (9cm) heel? Yes please!!
Lotus Briar Ladies White/Navy/Red Slip On Shoes: I really like these ballerina flats! The 3cm block heel makes them feel super classy and proper.


Lindas cosas para tu cumpleaños, espero que lo pases bien y te mando todo mi cariño.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much.
DeleteMy birthday isn't until later this year, but my beloved surprised me TODAY with a fabulous present: The Library, A World History by James Campbell.
ReplyDeleteIt is the heaviest, most beautiful book I have ever owned :)
Oh wow I am so happy for you, that is a very thoughtful gift.
DeleteI hope that many of your wishes come true. You can definitely make good use of the long rubber boots in nature.
ReplyDeleteYes, I mean that would be a good one to own.
DeleteFico com os dois ultimos!

You are welcome.
DeleteHola,
ReplyDeleteEspero que esa lista se te cumpla.
Feliz cumpleaños ♥♥♥
Thank you, Pepi.
DeleteYour black boots may be so useful!
ReplyDeleteThey are Giorgio, thank you.
DeleteHola Melody. Como no sé cuando es tu cumpleaños, pero a tenor de lo que escribes no debe estar muy lejos en la fecha, te deseo pases un estupendo día y que se cumplan algunos de tus deseos porque todos serían inusual 😂😂.
ReplyDeleteTienes un gusto exquisito en la forma de tus trenzas al igual que con esas bailarinas que son una maravilla.
Un abrazo.
Hahahahaha, Juan, I might just be that blessed girl by God who put out her birthday wishlist and all of them come through. Well, let's see, I will update you on the blog. Have a nice weekend.
DeleteUna buena lista algo muy útil para visitar la naturaleza en la verde Escocia son esas botas de agua altas .
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Hi, Thomas, vsiting nature is sure going to happen.
DeleteMas são as pequenas coisas que se tornam grandes porque o segredo da felicidade também é a simplicidade . Penso que possui uma enorme sensibilidade pelo que nos deixa ver pelo que nos revela .
ReplyDeleteQue sejam concretizados todos os seus desejos e desejo muitas felicidades. Parabéns !
Thank you so much, Manuela.
DeleteMelody my dear friend. When is your birthday?
ReplyDeleteI read your birthday list and I liked it very much.
I have to stay in N.1, about your prays and your relation with the religion feeling.
In this amazing vintage pick-up, roxy 60. I really love it. We also use a hi-fi stereo system with pick-up and we like the LP vinyl records.
My best wishes my friend. Kisses.
My prayers are already sealed and answered by God, Amen. My birthday is in June. Have a nice day.
DeleteDear Melody,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your birthday wishlist – it’s such a beautiful mix of gratitude, inspiration, and personal joy. Starting with a thankful heart for answered prayers truly touched me. It’s a reminder that the little things often mean the most.
Spending your birthday in nature sounds like a dream – Loch Leven and Inversnaid both look absolutely magical! And I have to say, the Roxy 5-in-1 music system is such a cool choice – a perfect blend of vintage charm and modern tech.
I hope your special day is filled with love, laughter, and maybe a few of the lovely things on your list!
Warm wishes,
Saskia Katharina
Thank you so much, Saskia. I know for sure my birthday would be filled with love and laughter, beauty, calmness, money and lots of happiness and most especially answered prayers.
DeleteIt's a really great list and of course I will join you in praising God :)
ReplyDeleteAnd you will look spectacular with those braids. :)
Thank you so much. I just made the braids today. I came back home shortly, so I have ticked that off my list. Thank you. As you praise God, may He bless you and your family.
DeleteIt's a really great list and of course I will join you in praising God. :)
ReplyDeleteYou will look spectacular with these braids. :)
Wow, jakie buty z diamentami. Robią wrażenie!
ReplyDeleteSimple and cute. Thank you.
DeleteThat sounds like a good birthday list. I had a CD player similar to that record player you like. I'd take the nature reserve for my birthday. That photo you posted looks really lovely. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThank you, Erika. I am sure you enjoy using your record player.
DeleteMelody I wish you many good wishes for your Birthday!!! I wish you health, happiness, joy, fulfillment of dreams and God's Blessings!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, you are blessed.
DeleteI hope you get all the items on your list.
ReplyDeleteThe first wish on your list will definitely be granted, because God always listens to us and helps us.
I especially loved the Flat Sliders and the shoes
I wish you a very, very happy birthday❤️
Thank you, Maria.
DeleteAww, wishing you the very best birthday coming up, my friend! I love your birthday list and what a fun idea! I hope you get to travel to more nature reserves, get all the goodies you want, and so glad to hear about those answered prayers. God is so good!
ReplyDeleteMake Life Marvelous
Thank you so much, Ashley. Amen.
DeleteWhat lovely and thoughtful things you've put on your birthday list, Melody.
ReplyDeleteVisiting a nature reserve would be the perfect way to spend a birthday, in my book, and those wellies might very well come in handy! xxx
Thank you.
DeleteDou-lhe, desde já, os meus parabéns e espero que consiga obter tudo quanto menciona que é da sua preferência.
ReplyDeleteAbraço de amizade.
Juvenal Nunes
Thank you so much. Have a nice weekend.
DeleteA great list here, I like the look of the retro record player and can see how long wet weather boots can came in handy also I can no longer wear high heals and have never been able to wear flats but those last pair of shoes, hell yeah I like the look of them
ReplyDeleteI can see why you like the last shoes, simple and beautiful. Thank you.
DeleteI love that you included answered prayers on this list. That is so beautiful! I hope you are able to visit some nature reserves and enjoy a fabulous record player! My husband and I have a growing record collection and it is such a wonderful way to incorporate music into our home. The 5-in-1 system sounds so great. Love all of the shoes that you shared as well!
ReplyDeletethe creation of beauty is art.I
Thank you so much, I will get all I desire.
DeleteFirst of all, happy early birthday wishes! You have a fun list. Answered prayers is the best, at least to me. I've hit the point where I don't need one more "thing," one more clothing item or household thing. But travel? Experiences? Bring it on!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way at this point. travel is such a beautiful experience, but i am leaning towards road travel even more. Thank you so much, Jeanie.
DeleteI like those rubber boots too. I could use a pair here with all the rain we’ve had. I’d like to wish you an early happy birthday. Your trips sound like so much fun. My Dad has been to Scotland, so a couple of the places you mentioned sound familiar to me.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Belinda. I am going to have a beautiful, happiness-filled birthday.
DeleteI wish you a Happy Birthday, Melody! I really like your black boots. I could need a pair of them.
ReplyDeleteMarit, I will share all the birthday wishes that came through, and yes, the black boots are my favorite—comfy and practical.
DeleteFulfilled wishes are always a wonderful thing, and spending time in nature is balm for the soul. Then, of course, it also makes a lot of sense to have these stylish wellies; they keep your feet dry in the fields and woods and look smart too!
ReplyDeleteThe radio-thing is a cool piece! And I think it's really nice to be able to play old records and CDs again anyway. It would be a shame for them to gather dust on the shelf! And a bit of nostalgia like this makes everyday life a lot happier!
Best regards!

Spending time in nature is balm for the soul. Wow, I am using this as the quote of the day. Thank you so much; I enjoyed reading your comment.
DeleteI also prepared a birthday's list and got one of those wishes. Books - one given by my friend and the others I bought myself with the bookshop's voucher. I do buy a lot of books there and so, they are quite friendly and gave me a birthday's voucher. But I do love the ballerina flats; they look quite comfortable.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your birthday...
Regards
Marta
I'm so happy to hear you had a wonderful birthday and that your wishes came true. I'm sure my birthday will be just as special.
ReplyDeleteWish big to get big rewards. I hope all your wishes come true.
ReplyDeleteMy wishes came true. Thank you
DeleteHappy birthday. Did you really get all those wishes?

DeleteAmei seu post! ☺
ReplyDeletegarotastarfashion.blogspot.com
Thank you.
DeleteThanks for sharing your birthday list, Melody, I have to admit that I enjoyed reading it.
ReplyDeleteHunter boots would definitely come in handy - Autumn is just around the corner! I would love to have them, too! :)
I now have the hunter's boot. I got my birthday gift.
DeleteNajbardziej mi się podoba ten czerwony odtwarzacz muzyki. Przepiękny. Ogromnie lubię czerwony kolor. Czadowy sprzęt. Warkoczyki i buty również super pomysł na prezent dla siebie. Cudne buciki. Wszystkiego najlepszego! Spokojnej nocy Kochana Melody 😃
ReplyDeleteRed is a beautiful color and for a music player, that is wow. I did the braids and got the shoes—I mean all of it. My birthday was a hit back-to-back.
DeleteYour Roxie 60s record player is very cool.
ReplyDeleteWishing I still had my vinyls.
I know, right? I did not get the record player, but I got everything else on the list. You can check them out in my new travel post.
