Just three hours till I’m another year older. It’s gonna be something of a low key birthday given everyone in the household is still recovering from a pretty nasty cold and because I’m away from home at the moment. So it’s going to be a birthday of two halves. Tomorrow will just celebrate the day. Cards, cake, more than a little booze if things go right. When we are back home comes the gifts. Which I could have brought with me but I’d be worried about them getting damaged. Anyway I like it better if we almost get to celebrate it twice as my best friend will be dropping by on the Saturday.

I’ve never been down with the whole big party thing when it comes to birthdays. Just family and a very select group of friends, nothing very exciting just getting together for a low key celebration. With how long it’s taking me to feel better, it might be even more low key this year. Guess we will see.
