Birthday tomorrow and feel so down

[BergamotMouse]

It's my birthday tomorrow and no one gives a shit.

DH hasn't got me a present, the one thing I've ordered myself hasn't arrived and I've had to make my own cake which I now can't be bothered to finish off.

We'll be stuck inside but there's nothing special planned. I don't even want anything big, just a nice breakfast or something.

I know the world is falling apart and this is not important in the grand scheme of things but it just makes me feel really sad.

No reason for posting, just venting here because every time I think ahead to tomorrow I want to cry.

How old are you going to be tomorrow?

If money and time was no option what would be your dream birthday for tomorrow?

And what would be your dream gift?

It’s an absolutely rubbish time to have a birthday and you’re allowed to feel disappointed op. Do something nice to celebrate as soon as you’re able, happy birthday for tomorrow!

I agree with @Ronnie27

Can you leave a note for your DH to see, stating that you'd really appreciate a nice breakfast or similar?

I'll be 35.

If money were no object I'd love to have a mini break somewhere and spend the day wandering the street of a new city, having coffees and a nice lunch.

In reality, if it weren't for lockdown I'd just want to go out for a meal with DH. I haven't been out for an evening meal in nearly 2 years since having DC2 and this was my plan!

Dream gift, a whole new wardrobe which makes me feel like someone other than 'just a mum'.

I could ask for a nice breakfast but someone would have to go to the shops to get stuff which I can't imagine will happen now with feeding the kids and getting them to bed.

I think it's just hit me now because I know that he's not been out and therefore, there's nothing planned or to look forward to. I won't even get a card.

Wait till this is all over and do it then xx

Two random kisses there. Happy birthday

Happy Birthday for tomorrow. MIne's Tusday, and I'm feeling the same.

My friend told me I was like the Queen this year! As I could not celebrate my birthday at all (dinner was cancelled) and as I live on my own, she is going to throw me a "Very Happy Unbirthday" party after this is all over so I have two birthdays this year!

Could you plan your birthday for when this is all over?
You really need a night out if you haven’t been out for 2 yrs.

How about treating yourself to a movie night tomorrow and downloading a paid for amazon film? Nice snacks and stuff? Make the living room look extra nice?
(Just thinking from the top of my head - sorry, I haven’t got a great imagination)

Happy birthday for tomorrow. I know exactly how you feel. It was mine last week. As a PP mentioned I am also now the queen I will be having a 2and birthday. Provisionally booked as early september!

I bloody hate 'dream boards' but this might be the time to have one. Plan a mini break when this is all over. Hotel, restaurants, everything. Trip advisor have a function for it.

And even without cards and presents, everyone can be extra nice to you. Make you tea, not have you lift a finger, bring you blankets...

Happy birthday for tomorrow. My birthday was last week but like others on here will have an unbirthday dinner with the family later in the year. I had planned, as it is a big birthday to do the Moonwalk in London in May but that too has been postponed.

Take care and stay safe, perhaps have a pamper session tomorrow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🌺🌸🌼

Happy Birthday BergamotMouse 🎉
Hope it's better than you suspected, but if not, take some time today to plan your perfect 'unbirthday' which you celebrate in a few months time.

Happy Birthday 🎂🎉🎈

Happy Birthday!!!!

Happy Birthday OP!!

I know how you feel, it was mine 2 days ago and normally we'd go for a nice meal, but combined with not being able to go for our usual Mother's Day Walk in the lakes last Sunday and with everything that's going on right now I just felt like I didn't even want to bother with my birthday

Happy Birthday, I hope you have had a lovely day, given the circumstances.

Happy birthday! Have a great day.

Happy birthday OP. My DS 12 sighed when Boris said we'd have this virus licked in 12 weeks and said "well that's my 13th birthday gone then". I'm writing him a massive IOU for when it's over. Whatever he wants.

Happy birthday op

Oh OP, I get it. My birthday next week and I missed my last birthday due to an accident as well. I've just added a birthday cake to the shopping to cheer me up, but I'll be surprised if it actually turns up. Try and keep your chin up. 😊

It’s my DH’s birthday tomorrow also, and he will be spending all day working! He’s an online delivery driver for a supermarket!

I can’t buy him a card, but have done an e-card and will cook him a nice meal in the evening, hopefully he won’t be too tired to eat it!

OP it's my 30th birthday today and of course all plans went out of the window, but I've just adopted myself a donkey as a birthday present to me. And once this is all over I'll be going to visit him about an hour away 😁 treat yourself if no one else will.
