Birthday

Today is my birthday. It is usually my favorite day of the year, but today has been the worse birthday I have ever had.

1. My gift from God was the assurance that I am a not pregnant. Thanks, but I could have done without the cramps.
2. Husband still being standoffish as a result of our disagreement the night before. So far, no birthday hug and no midday call.
3. My mother called to tell me at about 8AM that the student loan people are going to garnish my wages if I don't get my life together. (Her suggestion was to go back for my Ph.D. NOT exciting birthday talk.)
4. I have NO money. Like ZERO dollars.
5. I remembered that I had a ticket due tomorrow. I drove home after dropping LoLo at school and somehow found it only to discover I cannot pay it online and am REQUIRED to go to court tomorrow. (Did I mention I have no money to pay this ticket?)
7. The card one of my best friends sent me via email was blocked by IT.
8. I still hate my hair, but I am too afraid of the headaches coming back to go back to straight hair.
9. I have nothing to look forward to when I go home. Maybe my kids will have a card for me, but today will be about laundry, homework and trying to keep my house from looking as jumbled as my thoughts.
10. Lastly, you have read this blog before so you can just imagine how much fun I had at work on my birthday with cramps.

On the bright side, I am pretty sure that God still loves me. I did get a free lunch courtesy of my friends and I have not been fired yet. I also fit into a pair of jeans this weekend that I could not even look at a couple months ago.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
