Today is hubby's 78th birthday & I don't think he even realizes it! I wished him Happy Birthday this morning & he said "oh is it today?" :) He of course went to the calender & checked the date (he is obsessed with the calender & his wrist watch!). I asked him if he could tell me how old he is - he said "let's see, i was born in 1935, so I think I'm 78". I was floored that he got it right & without much thought!
At supper, our son was here (having a bigger dinner tomorrow) & hubs seemed to have a burr under his saddle! Anything I said, he would make a face at me!! It actually struck me kind of funny - for a while. Then it got pretty stale!
One more thing - not on the subject of "faces"! I have found several "encouragement" sites on the internet. I'm big on quotations & sayings & I have found some rather fitting ones (for me at least) on facebook, some on Pinterest. I've created a secret board on my Pinterest page just for those . When I need a quick, visual boost, I can click on those, breathe deeply & absorb some encouraging words & beauty. Just another idea to help me cope.

Yes, Charlotte, I know I was rather hurt when I turned 70 & he had no idea, even after being reminded by the kids! My last birthday (at Christmas) it didn't bother me so much. I know he would have at least wished me a happy birthday if he had been able to remember it.
