Just Another Day

Published by pattye at 3:05 pm under Living Edit This

As I suspected, my birthday is just another day.  I have done laundry, built a fire, ushered the dogs in and out of the house several times and worked.  Shouldn’t I have my feet up relaxing?  LOL

The dogs did serenade me this morning with their squeaky toys.  Jack chose the “screaming monkey”.  If you have never heard it, it’s an awful sound.  It’s a scream of some sort.  Scout chose to squeak a stuffie dog.  They did this for about 5 minutes.  It was very sweet of them, but I did have a headache so I probably didn’t appreciate their effort as much as I should have.

Hubby called to tell me that he forgot his wallet at home.  This was his way of breaking the news to me that he will not be bringing me dinner and any hopes that I had for a birthday card, flowers or any other small gift are not completely gone.   I guess it is better this way.  I will not have my hopes up and be disappointed when he comes home empty-handed.

So, that is basically how my birthdays go.  If I don’t plan it, then not much happens.  It’s really takes the fun out of it when you have to buy your own cake, you know?  Hubby has come through a few times, but he is not consistent.   My best friend always remembers me though.  She said my present should be here today.   We have each other’s backs.  LOL
