It's my birthday today, quite strange as it's the first one without either of my parents
I've had a few cards, I never get many as I have a small family, some money from a friend, my sister has given me an alarm clock, t shirt and a food parcel
Next week it's her birthday and I was quite emotional a couple of days ago writing her card just from me, previously it was me and mum, but next week we're going for a pub lunch

Happy birthday I recently lost my father one month before my birthday so I kind of know how you feel although I did spend it with my mam who is 81 everyday is precious with her as loosing my dad has given me a big fear of loosing my mam, she also has coronary heart disease, do you have any pets they are such a comfort and bring so much joy take care x
Happy birthday, Jennymary ! I hope you’re having a good day and that you enjoy celebrating with your sister next week for her birthday at lunch time. 🎂🎈🎁🎊😀👍🌈🎉
Happy Birthday Jennymary. I hope, even though it is your first without your parents, you will have an enjoyable day. I hope work is going well for you also. Make sure you pamper yourself this evening and have plenty of treats on hand. 💐🎂🎈🎁⏰
Wishing you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY Jenny, I’m sure you will get many more birthday greetings from your friends in this community before the day is out, imagine they are all birthday cards on your mantle and window ledge, enjoy the pub lunch with your sister.
Happy Birthday Jennymary. I know it won’t be easy but do something special just for yourself today even if it’s only a walk, bubble bath and a glass of wine.
Happy birthday Jennymary, it is strange without your parents, but they will be looking over you 😊 It’s an auspicious day, it would have been my mother’s 82nd birthday today too ! My daughter, granddaughter and I took sunflowers to her stone earlier.
Have a lovely meal with your sister next week 🎂🌻🌻🌻🎂💐🧁 xxx
Happy Birthday to you.... and your Sister- for next week, Happy Birthday to you... and your Sister- for next week , Happy to you... and your Sister- for next week... Happy Birthday Dear Jennymary- and your Sister- Happy Birthday to you BOTH!
Seriously though do, at least, Try to have a good time- and enjoy your Lunch! Our thoughts are with you both.
Just had my 84th Jennymary. and can understand how you felt.I faced it with mixed feelings with family far away.One in Chile and another the other side of the country.But we did it and it wasn’t so awful was it.Thousands of us faced all manner of anniversaries alone this year but we did it and look forward to the next one which should be better.Pat yourself on the back for having survived the challenge .Onwards and upwards.Many Happy returns.Love from Me.
