Today is my birthday. I got up this morning....got the kids up and ready for school. My husband got up as we had to take my 11 year old to the doc 40 or so miles away. No one said anything. I am use to the kids not acknowledging my birthday, but not my husband. We left and got to the docs and still nothing. For a split second I forgot the actual date while I filling out the papers and I asked my husband and he stated the 28th. I was like, oh no, never mind I know what todays' date is and NO its not the 28th...thats Wednesday. I left it at that. We got back into town and dropped my son off at school and came home. There was a message on the answer machine. My friend of 6 years left a message telling me happy birthday. As soon as he said I looked at my husband, and he looked at me. SHOCKED!! He was dumbfounded. He didn't say anything. I just gave him a smirk and finished with the answer machine. He sat down on the bed (in the livingroom) and put his head in his hand, and just sat there. The look on his face we priceless. I know that sounds mean, but damn...we even stopped at his moms for about 30 maybe 40 minutes so it was like 2 pm and he hadn't remembered. Thats alright....neither did his mom or sister. Sooooooo he was all sorry baby I am sorry. Anyways, I hate my birthday. I guess it stems from when I was younger and the way it was a no big deal thing to my parents. I had one party and that was when I was 13 and it was just a sleep over. Not really a birthday party. No presents or anything like that. So, I normally cry on my birthday. Yes ladies and gentlemen, I am a big fucking CRYBABY!!
So, my kids come home from school and my daughter gives me a card that she made. But seriously....the other kids had no idea. Hubbys ex wife came over and she wished me a happy birthday, after a call from her earlier, and my 8 year old was like, who's birthday? She said your moms. I guess I am being stupid. I just wish that for one year, I would be treated the way that I treat everyone else on their birthdays. I did get a visit from a friend who hasn't seen me in a few months. That was special. I won't forget that. My mother, who I haven't talked to in almost a month....She left me an offline message. It stated plain and simple "Happy Birthday". I actually was suprised, and yet...not suprised. I don't know if that made sence or not. I really wasn't wanting her to say anything. I don't want to speak to them and don't want to hear from them. I told them the day after Halloween that I was done with them. They put candy in my kids bags, then mom took a handful out of each of theirs to put in the candy jar for when they come over. I was like......NO!!! You don't take candy from the kids weather you want it for when they are here or not. If they choose to bring their candy over, thats one thing....but you don't take it from them and expect them to be happy about it. I told them to ask any person they know and they would be thinking the same thing. BIG HUGE fight over this. So....I am done. They can see the kids, but I dont' have to see them and I don't have myself to get so pissed off for their actions and the way that they try to control me.
As you see, they still have bearings on my thoughts as I write about them. Oh well. Had cub scouts for two of the boys tonight. Boring, yet I get some adult time. I get to sit in a corner and talk with other parents. Even if its about dumb bs, its adult time. Took my daughter (15) to the ER as she has been having a terrible cough and I thought maybe it was getting into her lungs. She has ear infection and broncitis. So, now she can't march in the parade on Saturday with the band. Oh well...its going to be too cold for her anyways. The two boys are in it for cub scouts, so we have to go anyways. Just wish they would do it earlier in the day instead of at 5 pm.
Well, I am sure I have bored plenty with my self pity cry baby talk tonight. Hope all is well and sleeps tight. I have cried so much today, my eyes hurt.

Dear thinks_2_much,
First, HAPPY BIRTHDAY !
Second I know what it's like to have no-one acknowledge your birth day.
I got my one and only birthday party when I turned fifty, and then it was my older sister who threw me the party.
Hope that you find in yourself not to allow to cause you so much pain because of their lack of compassion.
Next birthday, give yourself a day of inner peace. Buy everyone in your personal family a small present, then give it to each one of them with this message: thank you for being here another year of my life, I will be here another year for all of you!
They might be shocked about how much Love you give to them and then they may never forget how important you are to them!
Love & Peace,
jwcj
