Today's my birthday and my mom's

I bet it is quite rare to share the same birthday. My mom got quite a gift! It is not a good birthday today. No gifts and I think we made a mistake selling the house for less than the buyout figure from the mortgage company. At least we changed banks for a fresh start there.

I hope it is the start of something better. I’ll see if the mortgage company will accept less. Really want to move and we have no water heater.

Just talked to the house buying company. They are understanding. They said they will try to work it out, but if not, they can cancel the sale. I think they act better than my real estate agent friend. So I can enjoy our birthday more now.

My mom always joked that most people go out for their birthday. Instead, she had a baby.

I have a second cousin who was born a couple of hours earlier in the same hospital, across the hall.

My mother was also born on her mother's birthday.

Many happy returns.

I hope the sale of the house sets you and your mother on a better financial path in the future!

Have a great day.

That would be such a relief to us. And another good thing: the house buyers are replacing the water heater so we’re not responsible for it.

As well as Bilbo and Frodo's birthday. It's a rollicking good time, except that Bilbo just flat disappears when it's time to clear the table.
