Birthday Reflection

Birthday reflections I have not written anything today because it was my birthday yesterday, and that is rather depressing. It goes like this when you are seven, and they give you a cake, you can’t wait to be eight, or in my case 80 and that thought brings no joy other than marking the track to my demise with fairy lights; and should someone give you a cake you can`t eat it because you have diabetes. Enough about me!!! My dog died eight years ago she was sorely missed a friend who always got in the last bark. I once tried to commit suicide threw a rope across a beam stood on my desk, for hours I stood there till someone knocked on the door, it was the meter reader I was glad to see him after standing on the desk for 5 hours I was beginning to feel a bit ridiculous and the dog was sleeping on the sofa, not the slightest concerned; so I go on living then that all I can do.
