I am feeling sorry for myself , I am a stay at home mum of 4, my DH works hard and provides but since our babies (we have twin girls) were born , life is stressful I thought that for one day, today-my birthday , life would be different............I am sad, stressed and bordering on depressed. I always make birthdays special and thought these days were immune to lifes trials and tribulations.....Sad

Sorry to hear this Jellylegs; I hope he has something planned, or will make up for it later on.

Best wishes on your birthday. I read this and it certainly cheered me up, so hopefully it will make you smile.

February 27, 2006: Argentina - Angry wife Rosella DeGambos got her blabbermouth parrot Bozo to testify in court, who then spilled all the family secrets within a two-hour appearance. ?I knew he?d seen everything that my husband Carlos did when my back was turned,? Mrs. DeGambos said in an interview about her bizarre divorce court ploy. ?And I knew he had the vocabulary to describe what he?d witnessed.

According to Nature?s Corner, the parrot described three ?pretty dollies? that Carlos had ?tickled? while his wife was away. He also identified the women in photographs, calling them by their correct names. ?I used to think that Carlos was a faithful husband but Bozo let me know about a year ago that something was up when I wasn?t home,? Mrs. DeGambos said. ?He was using new words, words of love. And he began giggling in a high-pitched feminine voice. He kept saying, ?No Carlos, not here,? and things like that. I knew if the lawyers could get him to testify, there was plenty of information they could get from him.? Shown one picture of the 23-year-old beautician Carlos allegedly wooed in his home, the bird shrieked, ?Honeybun, I love you.? When Mrs. DeGambos? attorney asked the bird, ?Who loves Carlos?? the winged witness said, ?Ruby loves Carlos, Ruby loves her baby.? Coincidently, Ruby is DeGambos? young and voluptuous secretary. Judge Agusto, let Bozo?s testimony stand and granted the Mrs. her divorce. The first such ruling in the world.

* sings* I know what I want for my forthcoming birthday. Grin

Big hugs!

Aww- Happy Birthday! If it's any consolation it has just turned my birthday too. DH is away, DD2 has horrible croupy cough, so will probably end up keeping me awake all night again (was up all last night) I have to work today (thurs) and I've just received my first (and likely to be only) birthday present- a big dog poo in the hall Sad Sad

Ah well, birthdays aint what they used to be...

A big hug for you. Maybe consider the Alice in Wonderland strategy. Ask your DH to consider celebrating your Un-Birthday another night...

Janice-were you on the sauce also last night?
Sorry to have had a whinge last night but I did start off 'I am felling sorry for myself'.
I am not depressed just EXHAUSTED....wouldn't of minded a day off!don't think I need Valium, just another day in the week, a cleaner, a nanny,bigger house,,less stress more money etc......You might not want to hear this but my man is under as much strain at work as he is at home(we are very lucky/mad to have 4 kids under 8,He does provide and is hands on for them,my job on hold as childcare costs would not justify leaving twins in childcare(I also provide 'shit' to our family!!!) he might be losing job, we r in debt ..... Anyway...was just having an off day.

Joolyjoolyjoo-Happy Birthday to you!hope there was another gift for u?

Glad you are feeling a bit better today jellylegs!

Thanks for the birthday wishes too! I did get some, erm, bits of playdough lovely ornaments made by the children! Old dog contributed again by weeing all over the hall (sigh) Still, dd2 is better today, and DH will be home at the weekend, so can "celebrate" then (if I can drag him off the sofa) Hope you had a better day today Smile
