It's my birthday today.
Just need to have a moan
It's been fine. I'm just tied and grumpy with everything.
Dd1 and dh bought me a present which was lovely- but no cards,cake etc ( I tend to go all out for special occasions)
Work was really busy and no-one wished me a happy birthday even though they know ( last week was a colleagues birthday and a special teams channel was set up)
I've done alll the cooking and laundry today. Walking dogs twice plus neighbours dog. I have 2 teenagers who have just been demanding shit and bothering me at work today ( I wfh)
Dh has chronic diabetes and it seems to be getting worse or something else so can't do much but can do diy/ play on chat gpt for hours nothing useful. He's currently off sick but only been in current job for 2 1/2 months so unlikely to pass probation. This is 1st job after quitting last job in July. And I'm worried about how well cope financially again
I have mobility issues and adhd so am just feeling a bit overwhelmed atm.

Tomorrow will be better my parents are coming over and will bring presents cake and a takeaway.
Anyway sorry just wanted to moan.

Happy birthday!!

Ask the teenagers if they want to come with you to the shops, go buy yourself a cake and don't worry about dh, he'll pass the probation!

Apart from my mum, my family all forgot my birthday last year! I was so hurt, just a text would have done. Anyway, I hope you have a better birthday mark 11 tomorrow. Happy Birthday! 🎂

Happy birthday Boxshibe!

To lighten it up I'd like to share my mix up at the dentist, when asked for my date of birth, instead of saying 14/10/year I said 14/02/year and the receptionist said "oh a valentines baby". I was so confused but still hadn't realised what I'd said until she asked me to repeat as she couldn't find me with that name/DOB. I'm still cringing now at the awkwardness of it all. There was me trying to work out why she thought valentines was in October and she was probably thinking who doesn't know their own birthday 🙈

Hope you have a fab day tomorrow with your parents! ❤ 🎈
