It started at 330 am when my son woke up with a tummy ache.
Eventually he “took care of it” if you know what I mean, with a lot of complaining along the way. But the type of complaining without a fever so I remained skeptical.
Then the spouse complained of sore throat at 5 am and I threw him out of the bedroom as he had been tossing and turning and ruining my birthday sleep. I knew they would both end up awake in the living room but what could I do? What I could do is stew in my anger until I could doze off from 6-730.
Next comes the Little League baseball parade. My son did not want to participate. I had to run down and find the team so we could get our uniform as we would not be at the 1st game (not if there is a Spongebob event to go to!). It took me 1/2 hour to find the team of 4 tiny little kids and then the march started so the assistant coach said I had to march the whole parade before he could stop and give me my son’s uniform. Yes, I marched in the little league parade without my child, what a big jerk I was. The one good note, I saw a lot of people that I knew, some I hadn’t seen since last baseball season, that was fun for me. But my family must still be punished!
After an hour of this birthday torture, I went home, passing the 2 “sick” boys of mine playing basketball downstairs behind our house. I was not happy.
Then I took the tags off of the baseball uniform to find that the sizing was for a toddler not a boy. I have since written to the head of the baseball commission. Today is a comedy of errors.
I took a nap to reduce the crabbiness factor that I cold feel creeping over me. We them lazed about until my mommy and daddy came to save me with a birthday dinner!

aaawww! HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! i say in rebellion you take a birthday week and turn the spouse and kid into your birthday week servants, that’ll learn ’em!
on the ‘misery loves company’ side, my hubby totally ignores my birthday, i’m surprised if i get a ‘happy birthday babe’ outta him. he’s one of those ‘i show my love year-round, not on holidays’ kinda guys. or at least that’s what he thinks. it’s not much consolation.

lol, I couldn’t help laugh at this – the visual imagery of you marching alone in the parade was just too much to bear. Oh dear, could things have gotten any worse!? The silver lining is that I’m sure that your birthday could only go up from there. 🙂
Tsk tsk @ the two sick boys playing basketball. lmao!!
That dessert looks AMAZING!!!! Yum!!!
