#27 Whoops... 💍

A bearded man in a grey checked shirt with his new fiance, both are smiling.
On Saturday May 13, 2023 I proposed to my partner.

I have a confession: I had a blip in my 30 daily blog posts in 30 days experiment.

But I promise it's a good excuse.

It was my girlfriend’s birthday and I super secretly planned to propose.

I replicated our very first date which took place back in the shadow of post-lockdown while social distancing was in full swing.

She had no idea it was coming which is a miracle since she’s normally like a truffle pig with trying to root out surprises.

I’ll spare you the soppy romantic details but she said yes.

We went to a joint family and friends meal that evening to share the good news and it was a magical day.

I’m sure you understand why I was willing to break my streak.

Fortunately, the beauty of a modern CMS like Ghost is that I can back post and satisfy my organisational OCD.
