My Day, Blah!!!

I had plans for today, big plans.  I was going to have a lazy day with my computer.  I had it all planned what I was going to write.  This was going to be my day to do with it what I wanted.

Because today is my BIRTHDAY!!!

But did that happen, oh no!

Firstly I wasn't over keen to have a birthday, as I am over the hill and fast sliding down the other side - why can't we have a birthday without the years piling on - but if I had to have one then I wanted a day for me because just lately every day off or spare moment has been used up by work or others, through no fault of their own, but used up just the same.  That's not so bad if there are breaks in between but there hasn't been.

So what happened today?

First I woke up early in a bad mood, then I had work to do on the computer which seemed to take all day, work I had hoped to finish the day before.  I was tired, miserable, I pigged out on chocolate throwing the wrappers in the direction of the bin over my shoulder as I typed.

When my husband came home from work he just looked at me and laughed.  He reckoned that if I could have a little cloud over my head with rain poring out then that is what I had.

Friends came round which was nice, but it meant that the work took twice as long as it should have done because I had to keep stopping.  By the time it was all finished I was too tired to think what I wanted to write, so this is all that I can manage.

So now my birthday is nearly finished but I am starting to feel happier, christmas is coming but I'm thinking of cancelling it.  I don't have to worry about another year being added on for another year.

I can write the things I want another day.  But suprise, surprise already all my free time is being booked up already.

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME another year older and nearer my bus pass.

And now I feel thoroughly ashamed for being such a misery.

P.S.  I forgot to mention the toothache.

Why did the fireman phone the police?

He saw the fire escape.
