Is today your birthday or tomorrow? It sounds like this birthday is going to be a difficult one, what with H moving to his dad's and you getting sick. You should just change the date and celebrate your birthday in a month or so when things are better. I hope you will feel well enough to go have a nice day tomorrow.
You know what they say get plenty of rest and drink lots of fluid. I probably won't be on much. Tonight is the high school football game and daughter cheers. I may get on later, but I'm sure you all will have a good time in the sandbox.

LW, My birthday rolled around about 3 months after my husband left. I was feeling so down. The night before my b-day, my DD16 had to cheer at the basketball game. After the game I went to a friend's house and DD went to her friend's house with 2 other friends. I went home and and waited up for the DD. She called to let me know she was on her way home, so I went ahead and got in the bed because I was drained physically and emotionally. When she got home at midnight she said Mom, please come in here. Of course I thought something was wrong. I said what's wrong baby? She said please do this for me. I got up and walked into the kitchen and there she stood with three of her friends and a lit birthday cake. I just started crying and hugging them. How sweet that four teenage girls gave up their Friday night to stay home after the game and bake me a cake. It may not have been my happiest b-day, but it was certainly my sweetest. I will remember it the rest of my life. Kids are such a blessing and I thank God daily for mine.

Bet none of you got a pink plastic spider catcher for your birthday - as your ONLY present from your S. Did I mention that before? Oh yea - I'm VERY VERY VERY sore about it still. I had to go out and by myself some jewellery to make up....and some boots.....and a new bridle......and....well lots of other things....
I just hope my H gets the message for next year - otherwise I will be buying one plane ticket to somewhere exotic .....
Being picked up by a GF in a few mins to go bowling. Will be back in about 4 hours and will come back on.
See you guys and gals later. MC hope you are practicing your English accent!!!!

Oh yoyo, I teared up when I read that story too. What a sweet sweet heart your DD has. My D3 is my emotional one, always worried about me. D5 is more worried about herself. H and I used to joke that when we were old and need help, D3 would have 2 jobs and paying for us, while D5 would be sitting around saying "Its not MY fault they got old". LOL!!!
It will be a hard birthday because last year I walked into a surprise party thrown by H, with 50 people in my house. He was worked so hard to invite everyone, make food, do EVERYTHING and I had no idea. I was overwhelmed. This year, I think it will be quieter, but that's ok. I have my girls and my health (cliche, I know, but true).
