Yay it's my birthday over the weekend, but not a big yay anymore.I never make a fuss about it and leave it up to everyone else too remember.Just means you are one year older or you survived another year depending on how you look at it.
The beauty at this age if no one buys you what you may have wanted you just buy it for yourself anyway.This is obvious a secret as they don't read my posts and hopefully they don't try and catch up in the future either. Too many posts too read so the secret will remain safe maybe.
I think the older you get the quicker the years tick by as your life is that much busier. I don't seem to accomplish everything I want these days and just run out of time. When you are working for yourself you hate weekends and public holidays as I just see wasted time and lost opportunities.
In the house we used to have a rule that it was birthday week and it was your choice and you could relax and not lift a finger. This soon became hard work as everyone got older and just fell by the wayside. I am sure we will go out for a surprise dinner tomorrow night so I will act surprised.
A new rule this year will be no candles on the cake as there are enough now to set the house on fire so one will be enough if they have to.
