Where? Here
When? Now
Why? (The paragraph starts here) - Today is my birthday. It’s been a pretty good day all in all, other than I fell pretty crappy and came to work anyway. My co-workers and most of my family have been very sweet in wishing me a happy birthday…Here’s the awful part: My husband’s poor cousin, (who I barely have met, and he hasn’t seen in years and never was close to) passed away from ovarian cancer. It’s really sad, but I really don’t want to spend my birthday evening traveling to the funeral home for visitation. Now, I know that I am being very selfish, and I have refrained from posting a thread, but I am just ready to go home and feel bad and time is drawing near to get in the car and make the trip! To top it all off, now I have a toothache! Happy Birthday to me!
Ok - I admit, I really only posted this to beg for sympathy! Isn’t THAT sad???
Hey, we’re here for you Happy birthday to you :present:! Try not to feel bad about it… Sometimes things happen and we can’t control them. Just do it for your DH and then treat yourself to a nice dinner. Sending you hugs!
You are completely entitled to feel crappy, with all that has gone on today.
You should treat yourself to some really special yarn as a birthday present to make up for it, or better yet, your DH should treat you!

I find that lots of birthday cake usually helps these sorts of things
Happy b-day though
