Yesterday was so sucky I just went to bed. I have decided that I am going to take $5-20 a week ( whichever I can afford that particular week ) and hide it away. When my birthday comes next year, I am going to take that money and treat myself to a nice dinner, get a small cake, and buy myself something really nice. Oh yeah ... and I am going to do this by myself. Maybe I'll treat myself to a weekend at a spa or something decadent like that.
I did not get any happy birthday cards from any friends, or family.
I got 1 birthday gift. A deck of Care Bear playing cards.
( But hey ! At least I got something ! )
And thanks to the wonderful sweet person who let me know about this thread. I really needed the smile.
It was not fun, it sucked. The fun will be next year when I have a bunch of money to spend in a outrageously wasteful manner on myself.
This birthday I thought my fiance just might make a deal over, but since his grandmother passed away Wednesday, and my birthday was Thursday .... I can understand why he didn't. But it still hurt a little.
Sooooo ... next year I will give myself a nice treat. After all, it is in celebration of my life no ? So I should be the one celebrating it !!!
