Is it tommorrow already?

For the past 5 days i have been the same age as M34tb4LL, happy birthday M34tb4LL for last Sunday, but tomorrow once again i will be a year older than him.

I know that I will always be a few days shy of being a year older than him, but when we tell people our age we always round it down to the last birthday so TECHNICALLY for the last 5 days M34tb4LL and i have been the same age (well it makes sense in my mind at least).

But tomorrow is my birthday, and it has kind of snuck on me! In fact this whole birthday season has snuck on me this year. The birthday season of course started on Friday with my mother's birthday, quickly followed two days later by M34tb4LL's birthday and then two days after that (yesterday) it was M34tb4LL and my wedding anniversary, happy anniversary for yesterday M34tb4LL, and as i have already mentioned it is my birthday tomorrow which will be quickly followed by M34tb4LL's brother's birthday in two after that! It is a busy time...

This year there has been a few things going one though. With a new baby on the way and a house full of 10 years + of crap and a toddler that need to be moved out of the baby's room and into his own room and did i mention that our house is filled with 10 + years of crap?

The problem for us is that we have spent so many years a couple, living very comfortably in our house that now that we need to share it with children we are having to clear out our stuff to fit theirs in... It is a bit of a bitter circle thing really.

One thing that M34tb4LL i decided was that we were not going to get each other presents this year, or to put it another way - get each other more stuff that has to be put somewhere... But we did want to get a new bed base, so the bed base is our present to each other! And (a little bat on the back to us both here) the bed base that we choose actually has a large amount of storage under it - storage for some of our crap!

I did of course give M34tb4LL a little something on his birthday that was from **wink wink** Peanut and Bean, well you have to have something on your birthday. But what i - i mean they - gave him will over time have been consumed (it was a bottle of whiskey) that in the long term storing it shouldn't be too much a problem.

But anyway - with all this trying to minimise - and being pregnant in general - and just the general running around that seems to have become part of our daily lives - we have just kind of found ourselves smack bang in the middle of birthday season without a paddle (but then if we did have a paddle, where would we store it!)

And tomorrow is my birthday. I have taken the day off work and we have not made any plans as to what we might do for the day and i don't really have a problem with that! Though I don't think we will be doing what we did last year - going shopping - don't need to spend the day impulse shopping and then having no where to store things!!!
