It sneaks up..

I can’t believe it’s nearly my birthday!
I’ve been so distracted by little things like weddings and Christmas that I’ve barely given it a thought. It’s a bit silly really, isn’t it, getting married so close to these other celebrations? From now on, all our big yearly moments will be within a few weeks of each other. What the Hell will we use as an excuse for a party in August? 
Phiippa would suggest we time our pregnancies so that each of our children are born in a month with no other birthdays. She’s so terribly organised like that. She’s also so terribly obsessed with being a mum, so I’m not going to let her see this blog posting or it will set her off again.
I stupidly forgot to book my birthday off work, so I’m a bit limited to how much I can enjoy it. Sophie and Tamara are coming to stay next weekend so we’ll drag Hannah round too (if she’s speaking to me again by then) and have a knees-up. It seems to have been assumed that this will be an annual event from now on, so I’d better get my Staff Discount card out and head for the ‘Alcohol’ and ‘Snacks’ aisles…
