It's slightly too late to say thank you for all todays best wishes. I think I've replied to most people personally anyway.

To be honest, having woken up feeling quite awful (sick and energyless), having almost half a day at work and then not doing much in the evening, this has certainly been the most lethargic of birthdays - Perhaps discounting my 1st.

It's a huge anti-climax. I think this illness, coupled with having had my last "fun" birthday at 21 years old, birthdays have lost their appeal. I struggled to be enthusiastic or excited about it at all.

Having said that, I appreciate the gifts, kind words and attention I've been given. Lets hope my next year is far less riddled with ill health than the previous!

Hugs and cuddles, me. xx
