Midnight Musings from the Loony Bin...

All I wanted was a card...

Welcome back to the Loony Bin!

Tonights subject - My birthday!

My birthday is tomorrow. Well, sorta.... I'm a Leap Year baby. I was born on February 29th. So, when there isn't a 29th, I celebrate on the 28th. Too many details but, let us remember that it's late and I'm pretty tired.

So, tomorrow is my birthday and I already know what I'm getting from my husband. Would you like to guess? Well, I'll tell ya...NOTHING! That's right! Absolutely nothing! Last year he used the excuse that I wasn't here ON my birthday! Of course, every year produces another excuse to add to the list. It's not like my birthday is easy to forget! After almost five years of marriage and still waiting! I take our 3yr old out and pick out a card for her to her Daddy on his birthday! I've even given him gifts from her with recordings of her first words which, of course, were, "Daddy"! Never once has he put any thought into doing something nice for my birthday! I did get a card from him two years ago but it looked like one that you pick up at a 7-Eleven! It was so generic but, hey, at least I got a card, right? When we were engaged he bought me beautiful cards but, that all changed when the chase was over and we were married! I wish I could just get over it and not let it bother me but, it's hard. I have cards that I gave my Mother when I was a tot. All I wanted was to have a few memories of my little one handing me a card that she proudly picked out for Mommy. She's growing so fast that, in a few years, it won't matter anymore.

I apologize to anyone who stumbled into my Blog tonight. I'm just a little down and needed to clear my head before going to sleep. God Bless and goodnight.
