Nothing Much Really

Nothing much to say really. Do I ever have much to say?
It was my birthday yesterday. That was, ok, a little weird a little sad. I am no longer a fan of growing older, so that bit was not so great. It was also my first birthday since my mother died. That seems all wrong. While I was clearing out her things a few months ago, one of the things I found was a birthday card for me, not yet signed, in an envelope with a leather purse. So....I had a present and a card from my mother, which was strange, and sad.
Oh well. I got through it. Like Christmas, and New Year, my birthday no longer seems like something I want to celebrate. But it is over now for another year. And today I went shopping, and bought the perfect pair of jeans. I have been trying to find those for about two years, so no inconsiderable feat. And then I came home and finished the champagne that I opened last night. Because it was my birthday, after all.

  3. That sounds like a perfect birthday - a pair of jeans and champagne. Cheer up, you might have got a food mixer or a new hoover!

  6. I know what you mean re birthdays. It's been ages since I have felt like celebrating a birthday. In fact, I've never liked it much - never liked being the centre of attention. I think the birthdays of others, particularly children, are a whole lot more fun.
