It's my birthday today and things have gone from bad to worse so far (nothing too drastic and could be far worse I know). I have laryngitis and can't talk at all, my partner forgot to get our children to write me a card and is now going to be working late so it's just me and my 2 daughters at the moment and I can't talk so I feel like I'm out of control. And now my eldest needs a plaster and I can't find the Princess ones that she wants so she's crying because I've stuck a dinosaur one on her. It's far too early for an alcoholic drink so I'm going to hunt down whatever chocolate/ice cream I can find and probably order a takeaway because I cannot be bothered to cook today.... I know it's very silly things to be upset about but haven't really had a good birthday for the last 3 years and today's just felt a bit rubbish.

Hey at least you can afford a takeaway 😄
I can't at the moment.
Happy birthday!
Good you've found a plaster at all, sometimes we run out of them.

Happy Birthday! Sometimes they are a bit shit for whatever reason, my 30th was awful. I hope next year is better for you. Why not plan something really nice for yourself next year to cheer you up. Enjoy the takeaway and hopefully icecream!

I meant to say that you're a good mother for at least remembering to have plasters at home ahah
