In less than an hour I will be 48. On the one hand I have a lot for which to be grateful. I’m just not feelin it. I feel overwhelmed overtired washed up. My body and soul are a mass of scars. I’ve been through so damn much. No chance in France anyone will be celebrating. No cake no gift no friends . Only a bunch of people sucking the life out of me#Birthday #melancholy musings
Can today be done? My today was awful. I'd sincerely appreciate a mulligan. I burned the roof of my mouth and got a quarter size blister. My tooth is super wiggly and hurts so much. And while eating a few popcorn chicken nuggies, I got too excited and accidentally bit my hand. I'm quite talented at hurting myself. Pauley Holm is just enjoying watching her airplane friends online so she didn't notice. I kinda want to lick her face.
I'm craving pop. I really enjoy the pineapple flavor faygo. It's really yummy to mix pineapple faygo with raspberry or lime sherbet. When I was younger, my family made punch with ginger ale and strawberry sherbet for family parties. I decided to try making different flavors and combos.
UPS just came. I was like yeah I'm not expecting anything and then they rang my door. It was the big jar of CBD gummies that I ordered last week and forgot about. It's a 6k jar so it's pretty big. I ate one cuz I was coughing kinda hard and it made my migraine come back. But my back and hips still feel great. They haven't hurt since Friday morning. I'm a very happy functional puppy.
Suddenly my tummy hurts kinda bad. I think I ate too many pieces of chicken.
My mom is angry at me for not knowing what I want for my birthday. I told her I'd like a gift card for Instacart or Thrive market. I plan to make a very special dinner for Yule for me and Pauley. I'm gonna make filet mignon and lobster. She's never had lobster. It's my favorite seafood. So I want to introduce her to my favorite yummy treatos.
My tooth really hurts. 2 years ago I was headed to my girlfriend's house and eating some caramel puff corn and it broke my back left molar. Then 3 months later another chunk broke off. Then 5 months after that another chunk broke off. So I've got one fourth of a tooth and now it's wiggly and really hurts.
I've had the hiccups quite a lot today.
I got a chance to finally see the quality of my haircut and it's... not good. The front is maybe 4 different lengths. I asked for a 0 on the sides and back but she didn't do it. The front half of the top of my head, the hair is awful and a trillion lengths. I'm gonna see if my neighbor can fix it. I'm not happy.
It's been a weird couple days. I wish we had a kitty.
My heart hurts. I feel kinda sad. I wanted to celebrate my birthday.

9 reactions My birthday is today (April 14th) and I turned 28 years old. I feel awful about myself and not looking forward to my birthday or anything in life. Everyday I'm dealing with anxiety, depression, and suicide ideations and it seems impossible for me to continue with life.

Today's my 34th #Birthday , and it's the first birthday where I have hope for getting a firm diagnosis & treatments that work. My current health makes it difficult to #celebrate in big or usual ways, so I am trying to make today feel special in my own way. My husband has gotten me flowers and gotten a cake that fits my strict diet (#IrritableBowelSyndromeIBS ) I would love to hear other people's ways of celebrating themselves in small ways. This is also a hard birthday for a number of reasons, so I really appreciate this community.
