Birthdays are funny things. I get so excited about making a fuss of other people's when their turn comes around, but I get quite stressed and anxious about my own. I'm actually quite uncomfortable being the centre of attention (don't laugh! It's true!). After poking and prompting my friends to mark their birthdays, I would not be able to escape some sort of 'event'. I banded a few ideas around in my head, and chose to go with Mandi's suggestion. Have a bash at hers!
Perfect. It's practically my second home anyway! So I cooked up a little buffet, some pumpkin pie, a roasted veggie pie, some baked salmon, made a huge salad, got some snacks in and drinks, baked myself my birthday cake (cheesecake) and we had ourselves a party.
The sun shone for me, all day.
Wonderful people surrounded me, we ate, drank, laughed and danced.
I got some amazing presents, and felt very loved.
So thankyou sooooo much to everyone who came. And to those who couldn't come but sent me their love anyway. I was really touched. This made me realise more than anything the lengths people will go, to send you their best wishes on your birthday when they really care. It shows you , and reminds you who, and what really matters in your life. It was wow.
I don't really feel the need to go into detail about the day and evening, I just wanted to make this post a 'thankyou' post for the awesome people in my life. Family and Friends both made me cry! Yes, I'm a soppy cow at heart.
Must be getting old.
