tetemandy36 4 Posted May 11, 2012 I need help guys today is my birthday and I am 10 days post op. Every year we went out to my favorite restaurant and a movie, but now I need a new tradition. This is my second birthday without my mom and it's already an emotional day I just want to do something special. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NancyJerry 139 Posted May 11, 2012 Go to a salon with a couple of girl friends, get a massage, mani, pedi, etc. You'll feel like a million bucks and really enjoy a good movie! Happy birthday! 3 Lauranbob Mc, PdxMan and Musharooni reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoreganK 164 Posted May 11, 2012 Well, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Why not still go to the movies? Just take away the restaurant part. And what a great birthday gift you've already given yourself. Maybe you and the girls in the family can go get manicures and pedicures? Have a mini makeover day? No matter what, just think about how awesome your "New Year" is going to be.

Enjoy your day!!! Happy Birthday to both! My birthday is coming up soon and my family tradition is drinking and having their favorite dish made for them.

Musharooni 62 Posted May 11, 2012 First, Happy Birthday!!! I agree with the ladies--do something for YOU-mani, pedi, facial sounds perfect. This journey you are on should be all about YOU taking care of YOU!!! I lost my mother in October and understand how difficult it can be doing those things without her.

Lissa 2,631 Posted May 11, 2012 I agree with the others; do something for YOU for this birthday. A pedicure is a wonderful indulgence and will make you feel SO much better. I'm sorry about your mother. I know how hard that one is, especially when you're early post-op. You're in the same spot I was last year, having a birthday while still on liquids. Just know that your mother is an angel in heaven who is watching over you and she IS proud of you, even more so because you're making such positive changes in your life! Happy Birthday to you! 1 Musharooni reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chitowngirl 886 Posted May 11, 2012 Happy birthday. Do something that is all you. My birthday is coming up soon and I told my husband I want to go bike riding along the lake front. Do they have carriage rides near by, or how about a boat ride. Depends where your at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
