I think you should totally pamper yourself for the day..... book yourself in for a pamper session or spa (sooo many deals on at the moment.. look on 'last minute.com) or get the stuff yourself and enjoy chilling and looking after yourself (if you like a tipple, you could always buy some cheap bubbly and strawberries....yum!)
I hope you have a fabulous day whatever you decide to do.
Go somewhere you have happy memories of.
Or go to your local, sit at the bar and talk to the staff.
Treat yourself to a nice pressie.
Most of all, I hope you have a happy day.
If you really can't face going out - go the shops and buy some lovely bath stuff and food you wouldn't normally have and stay in bed til late. make breakfast take it back to bed on a tray. Then have a leisurely bath with your bath essences etc. Dress up or slouch depending on your mood and have lovely lunch.
Don't forget to come on here and let us know how you've got on.
hey, it's my birthday at the weekend too!
I am going on a canal boat trip, followed by dinner in a resturant followed by watching my fave film on DVD with a big slice of cake!
I thought good answer by cazzz1975 (and others of course) but what would you like to do, you can make the most of your weekend with your own company or you can stay home and feel sad about things. Sorry I can give a suggestion as don't know what you like to do. Happy Birthday when it comes!
If I were you I'd have a good lie in, then around 10 am i'd get up have a shower etc.. go to a cafe and have a full english.. go to sainsburys and buy a few dvds and 3 or 4 bottles of sainsburys strong dry cider and a big pork pie .. then go home chop the pie into bitesize pieces and pour out a pint of cider put on the first dvd sit down eat the pies drink the cider and repeat this for the rest of the day until you collapse into a deep sleep.. theres nothing better and its best done all alone so don't feel lonely ..look on the bright side, noone can pinch any of your pork pie.. whatever you do rowie i hope you have a great birthday and be happy..
Oh my! Thank you all so much so many ideas and lovely wishes. Have decided to get my hair and nails done today and then treat myself to some new bubble bath. Then tomorrow I am going to go to the seaside whatever the weather and paddle in the sea, walk on the beach and buy birthday rock.
Wish I had a big cake to share with you all.
Thank you all so much for your kindness, lots of love and hugs, Rowie xxxxx
