Birthday Party
Well my birthday has come and gone, got some lovely gifts from family and friends. On the day of my birthday the 31 May I had the plesure of getting breakfast in bed as my hubby was home that day. So here I was waking up, the way I always wake up droggy as hell as the medicine I took before I went to bed was still doing it's job. So my eyes opened and I see my husbands big blue eyes in front of me and he is saying something, I first havent got a clue what he was saying but then thanks to my lipreading class I see something that looks like happy birthday.
Then the first movement I make is grabbing my ears, by that I mean my hearing aids the two of them, and from a world of silence and peace, I am suddenly woken up by my husbands voice 'HAPPY BITHDAY '.
It's difficult to explain to people what it is like not to hear a thing.It is so quiet and it seems as if youre the only person on the planet,you see the trees move the dogs running around barking sometimes a car drives past or by surprise I see that I forgot to switch the television off. NOw, some people might think that we (deaf people) get used to wearing hearing aids and it is true, we do get used to wearing them but sometimes on a very warm day and you start to perspire, then believe me we get iching ears. Another thing is that I never sleep with my hearing aids in so as I was telling, it is nice and quiet when I wake up then when you put those things in your ears the first things you hear are LOUD and I mean loud, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY and I was reminded that today I am one year older and I was given my coffee and breakfast with my 16pills and a giant piece of cake. Now wasn't that a surprise. Then the usual thing throughout the day parents come ,drink coffee, give presents and they go, then the next guest arrive with the same routine, and the next and the next. so how was my birthday?, Well let me think uh.. okay.. uh... okay i guess, got nice presents and yes nice.
But that is not all I have still got my BIRTHDAY PARTY comeing up with a Band playing, got the catering coming, got three waitresses for serving drinks and going around with snacks. So the best is yet to come, all my friends from the city and the local farm town, and did I forget you please dont feel sad but get your bag packed and come to my party you know where I live. Ha got you there didn't I . The only thing that I now ask is nice weather for sunday the 5 June and the reason I put the date is that if anybody should read this and you are very religious please send a prayer and aks for nice weather as the party is outside. This will save me calling everybody again to tell them to bring warm clothes.
Then there is a sad note to this all. Please go and get your hanky.My hubby is called up for work,and he has to go, that happens when you have a job, offshore and you work for the big oil companies and yes I am not shy to tell you this they always ask for him as he is so good in doing his job, he takes it very serious. It is the third time he misses my birthday party. So boo hoo...he will miss it again..boo....hoo.
I guess that you thought that I got this blog to chat to you about art, paintings ect and I did but sometimes I will chat to you about things that has happened because it is all about feelings and those feelings get portrayed into paintings and so you will get to know why my paintings are the way they are. I believe that one can see the artist personality in their paintings and that is why I want the reader to know a little about me. To be or not to be.... that is the question.... I hope to see you again next time See Ya
