I can totally relate to the muted birthday feeling and for similar reasons. Mine is in mid January when everyone has had enough of Christmas and New Year. It was wonderful to hear how you worked through it. I'm contemplating trying a mid-year birthday this year to shift the season and the connotations. Meanwhile doing is great 🥰 Well done you!
Thanks Linda...it's hard xxisn't it. I know I should appreciate every birthday I celebrate, but it's certainly more difficult with the looming anniversary. I think that a mid-year birthday sounds a great idea, and hopefully, if anything is planned, the weather might be more amenable!
So sorry to hear you had a poor condition when on your birthday weekend. Hope you are better now and wish a belated Happy Birthday!
Thx Catherine, yes, it was a bit of a damp squib! Looking forward to celebrating properly soon! Carolyn x
