Or as John sang it to me 'Langsal mu layfuh in the gloriah'. So considering we don't do anything with our birthdays (which I took one step too far last year when we were on holiday and flying back on Johns birthday and I totally forgot all about it due to pre flying jitters, bless) it was lovely to get my normal cuppa tea in bed but this time with an added candle burning and a McDonald leaflet with 'BOGOFF' vouchers for me to choose from.
It is definately different... I always was this huge fan of birthdays, couldn't get enough of the attention and the presents and everything. I don't quite know when that changed... I suppose it has to do with all these divorces, first my parents, then me and my husband, life gets ever so messy when you try to have a nice birthday but not everybody can come at once because they don't want to see eachother anymore.
Anyway... living with John feels like having a birthday everyday anyway so I am not bothered :). Tea, porridge AND coffee in bed every morning (oh and my lappie so the 'working from home' can commence instantly after waking up, sad...) Many men have told John to stop that sort of behaviour because he ruins it for them, I am so glad he never will though :-)
So... today.. we are going to go to Glasgow to shop and *if* I see a present I will buy it for myself. Different eh? At least you know for sure that what you 'get' is what you want!
