Happy birthday to me, I celebrated another birthday yesterday.
D7 woke me early and wished me a happy birthday and we went down and had breakfast together. W came down a short time later and sheepishly admitted that she had forgotten to buy me a birthday card. No problem, I said, but W proceeded to explain how things with the house, Christmas shopping and other things had distracted her and she totally forgot to buy me a card. In fact she went on about it so much that I politely had to tell her to drop the subject. To try and make up for it she did give me my Christmas card early instead of waiting for Christmas.
The plan for the day was to go into town to get me a present, W had promised to buy me a coat, and we would do a little more Christmas shopping then have a meal out. Well the shopping turned into an expedition to find W a party dress, my coat became a secondary item and we weren't able to find one. W did bought me a pair of shoes something else that I did need and I thanked her very much for that. As for the meal out, we skipped that cos the traffic would be bad later cos the football match was finishing soon and getting home would be a nightmare. So we settled for a Chinese take away and a bottle of wine and a cosy night in for the 3 of us.
As birthdays go, I've had better, I've had worse but I'm not going to complain bout anything I'm just gonna keep moving forward.
