My birthday
Wow! What a difference a day makes!
Today is my birthday. Yesterday I was depressed and sad and I had no heart for my birthday. I cried off and on all day but I didn't tell anyone not to do a birthday, I just didn't expect much the way things are with the family right now and I really didn't care.
I woke up feeling much better this morning and my 2 oldest kids came to work with me so I could finish a big job earlier today. Otherwise I would probably have worked a marathon today. As it was I didn't finish the day till 5, but I felt pretty happy today and when I got home everyone was excited. Dinner was done and dessert too I had some gifts and a few things had been done to make me happy but here is the best part:
H had worked hard all day long cleaning the office half of our bedroom which was full of "office debris." I had been asking him to do this for a very long time. The last few months I have been longing for a place of my own in here so I could have my computer time in here with him instead of in the dining room on the other end of the house. I have never even cared about this before but since we have been bonding so much more this is something I have wanted very badly. Just to spend more time with him.
He far far exceeded anything I would have expected. He cleaned it up so well and set up a nice desk in here decorated with roses and the computer he just fixed all set up for me. I cried like a baby when I saw it and then he cried too. It made me feel so special and loved and wanted. I just cannot describe how much this meant to me. I would have been happy had he cleaned half this well and just made me a space but he really went the extra mile *sniff*.
