I forgot about the MiL's birthday on Thursday. Well, that's not true. I actually remembered in all the days leading up to it, and throughout the day on Thursday, but then I was actually working that day and meant to call when we were done with dinner, and then things got nuts, as they often do after dinner, and . . .
Well, these are all just excuses. The fact is, I forgot to call her or otherwise acknowledge her birthday.
So here, publicly, I will apologize to her, wish her very belated but nonetheless sincere birthday happiness, and also ask you to join me in the comments. Maybe if a bunch of people online that she has never met also wish her happy birthday two days late, it will make up for the fact that her actual family didn't.
Sorry, MiL. But happy birthday two days late!

Happy birthday MIL! I miss hearing about Blackrock.
Thank you all! I note that it's my DIL and not my elder son who is concerned about missing my birthday; there's something so predictable about that scenario. Must be I'm ageless to him --we'll just have to see what he does next year. The actual day was one of deadlines and frustrating web sites, so on the following day, I just relaxed and did nothing useful other than ironing the linens from the Easter table. Gemma, I have a BIL from New Albany, Indiana, so you are almost like family. I hope you are all enjoying your spring!! I hope the Marys in St. Paul are not too far behind us and have some early flowers out.
Honored. 60 minutes from New Albany.
