Wow, feeling sorry for myself or what? I guess so!
So for my birthday today:
1. I will go visit my mom this afternoon and evening. My mom is not doing so good and is in the Hospice Program as of five days ago. I haven't been on Gather or written about it because it is too painful to talk about.
2. I don't feel good, like a sinus infection or something.
3. I am watching my six year old niece because she is out of school sick today. As soon as she leaves, I will go see my mom.
4. My husband didn't even say happy birthday before he left for work. He probably thought I was still sleeping, but I wasn't.
5. We bought a house the end of December so we could live closer to my mom. Now, all this has happened and we still don't live there because we haven't had time to paint, get carpet, tile, etc. So now we have a house close to my mom that is sitting empty and I don't even know if I want to move there anymore.
6. Ignore this or wish me a happy birthday. It doesn't really matter. Give it low markings or whatever you choose to do.
7. This is a feel sorry for myself birthday. So unhappy birthday to me.
Thanks for listening.

I know how this goes with your Mom. We went through this same thing with my Dad in 2005. And we were losing our house to foreclosure at the same time. None of my family helped us out while we were going through this either. So we had to overcome a lot of bad feelings.
Hang in there. Sunshine will shine through at some point. Count on it!
Happy Birthday though..i hope the day gets better for you
it is hard to deal with, so i am sending you hugs
and prayers for all.
Its still early, maybe your birthday will change to good,
Happy Birthday and i am hoping for a good day for you
hugs
I hope the day brightened up a bit.
Happy belated birthday, and I hope things get better for you.
I do wish you a happy belated birthday, but I would also suggest that just because Jan. 21 was the day you're born doesn't mean that's the only day you celebrate it. (All of us Christmas and near-Christmas babies learned that a long time ago.) Pick a day on your calendar, circle it and mark "Celebrate Edna's Birthday." The first day of spring might be a nice one!

Awwwww. I'm late replying to this. All I can say is that some husbands have to be reminded a week before your birthday and then every day after that until it is your birthday before they remember it...so he probably was just being a preoccupied man. Happy belated birthday. I'm sorry you lost your Mom but as you said, she's in the better place now. We all will be one day, that's the way we were designed. Life is good, and I hope today will be your best day yet.
