Happy Birthday!

Today is my birthday
I am 33
I really looked forward to this birthday
My sister is home
I'm the healthiest I've been in a long time
It's good to celebrate
The fact that I made it to 33
Relatively unscathed
I shouldn't really be here

This time last year I was preparing to go in to treatment
This time last year I  couldn't find any reason to celebrate
This time last year I couldn't have cared less about my birthday
Thankfully this year is different

Today I am going for afternoon tea with my family
In Markree Castle
I'll post photos when I get back
In the mean time
I am going to enjoy m birthday
As best as I can

See you on the next post.......

Happy Birthday Ruby!

  2. happy birthday beautiful.
    33 is a nice odd number isn't it?
    i'm glad to have you around. i'm glad you're still standing. that means something to me. i always feel like if you weren't supposed to exist, you wouldn't but you are existing so it must be for a reason. :')
    i hope you have a lovely time. you deserve a lovely time.
    also it is so fitting that you are born on September. i don't know why. i always assumed you were born around September to December. it fits for some reason. though i'd always imagined it a bit later. oh no, you're an autumn baby. <3

    1. Thank you Sammy Sam
      I've always been a fan of even numbers
      Like when I am changing the volume on the tv
      It has to be on an even number
      Is that weird?
      Probably
      Thanks again Sam

      Love to you x
