Our 2 birthdays

August 26, 2012 1:14am CST
My birthday was yesterday and oldest sons was today. here in AZ the time is 3 hours earlier, sometimes 2 hrs when it comes daylight savings time. since we never change our time from other states. my sons dad called at 5am to wish him a happy birthday! Im usually the only one to get woke up because one phones in my bedroom and the others in kitchen and front room. So i wasnt a happy camper for having to roll out of bed so early. My ex said I hear its birthday season out there. so im calling to wish you all a happy one. his present wife grabs the phone from him and starts singing happy birthday. he says hey, its Bonnie on the phone and she says I know! and finished the song to me. i couldnt be mad after that. This woman has seldom spoken to me and id heard she was always a bit jealous. it warmed my heart toward her. have you ever been surprised with someones attitude like that? he said he would call back later to wish son happy bd.

Happy Birthday to both of you, what a wonderful occasion to celebrate together . Not much surprises on my birthday so far except one that I will remember forever. On my birthday, I actually received an email, but I only open it next day since I am away and without the internet facilities. The email is from Resort World Singapore that congratulates me that I have won the Golden Holiday of 3Day 2Night at the resort with Universal Studio Singapore VIP tour, hotel stay in their luxurious suite, and A 'Voyage de La Vie' live show. This was the best birthday present ever, it was fantastic that I was able to celebrate with my family together. I am forever thankful to Resort World Singapore and God for such a surprise present!

It is a surprise when you expect a gritch and you get a song instead. I have found that people I thought did not like me did actually and it was surprising. I trust you had a good birthday all day. I would have been awake if it was a work day but I still would not want a phone call that early.

yes the thing is im usually a terrible grinch when im planning on sleeping in and i have to get up and answer the phone cause no one else will and everyone who knows me knows that so maybe thats why she sang to me.

Happy Birthday to both of you. How neat your sons and your birthday land on the same day. That must have been a wonderful birthday present for you the year he was born. I wouldnt want to be woken up at 5 am either but that was very nice for it to be happy birthday wake up call instead of a telemarketer.

Maybe the jealousy is over and she just want you to know that she was beside your ex while talking you on the phone. There's a lot of reason behind but the most important she greeted you and be happy on your day.

Hmmmm, why in the world would they call at that time in the morning? They must know it's 5:00am there in Arizona, no? That's the only part I find strange about this whole scenerio. Yes, that was nice of her to sing to you but I guess I would still be skeptical about it all, especially since she's seldom spoken to you, but that's just me. If it makes you happy then good, that's all that counts.

yes i know its weird. made me start wondering if they'd started drinking again. but then lots of times family back there, cant seem to remember its 3 hrs earlier here if they never lived here. plus, those were never the sharpest bunch. shame on me for saying that one but just trying to make a point but you know what i mean, they just dont think.

Could it be possible that she's just a good actor? She may have wanted to stop because she found out it was you but didn't want to be rude or hurt your feelings. Who knows maybe her jealousy is over with since you are farhter away now and the "threat" is less? I think I'd be really unhappy to be woken up so early just for a birthday wish, but depending on who it was I'd soon forgive and forget. Happy Birthday to you both, hope it's a great day for you and your son.

we did go out to eat in the evening after we found out my daughter in ohio was ok after an accident, so it turned out pretty nice and thankful also.

Well let me start off this way, Happy birthday to you and your son. Now you are lucky to have someone warm up to you that was not so nice in the past. I have never experienced that before. But you never know. Maybe one day the evil ex would warm up to my girl friend. Anyway, enjoy your birthday and tell your son to enjoy his.

in your case its the other way around i guess. i was never hateful toward his second wife. but for a few years she talked bad about me and seemed jealous.

Well, that does sound a little off to me. But either way. I wish the evil ex would let go and talk to my girl friend. But I just don't see that happening. I think the evil ex is jealous. For what I don't know, she is with another guy these days herself.

That's wonderful. I wish my ex and I could be friends. He has been remarried for 35 years. She must have done something right.

actually, it may not be that shes done right. cause im quite sure you shouldnt be thinking you done anything wrong. could be like in my case and his, we were to young to keep working at it like we should have. and shes stuck with him for almost 40 yrs because she liked to drink and crouse also for years and was a lot like him. plus, she probably figured she couldnt get another guy that good looking because most people judge by the outside. especially men. when they got together, he had gotten drunk and made her pregnant. he was a caring father when he wasnt out gone drinking. anyway, he stayed with her long enough to think she was a good kind person. like he used to joke around when she wasnt there about that song. if you want to be happy dont make a pretty woman your wife poor woman she probably heard about it and that was the reason for her jealousy. im just saying if you and ex arent friends its not your fault. you already said wish you could be.

Aw that is nice. I'm glad to hear that your ideas or rumours about her weren't correct and that you enjoyed your birthday.
@bunnybon7 (50973)

oh the rumors were correct for years. she showed it but my ex didnt notice certain things. anyway, im glad shes over it now. unless there was some other reason for it. anyway it made me happy.

Oh I see. Well I hope there were not alterior motives for it but either way its good she wasn't being jealous on your birthday so you could enjoy it.

Wow this is cool. Calling you just to wish you a happy birthday and then his now wife being so cordial like that. I am sure it was a shock but helped make your birthday so much nicer.

it did start my day off nicer then if they had just called to talk about whatever and woke me up so early.

LOL, it's a bit of a hard call to be mad at someone ringing with Happy Birthday wishes. How strange that your ex's wife has undergone a radical attitude change. That's great, means she is feeling more secure.

hi bunnybon happy birthday still and tell your son happy birthday too. I ha ve never had someone switch attitudes like that but it was really sweet of her for a change,.I bet that sort of made your early morning there did it not?
@bunnybon7 (50973)

yes it did make my morning. it was a delightful surprise. since as you know its very annoying to be woke up to early on any day. much less a BD

That was nice. I am always a bit skeptical of sudden changes like that. I would do better to be more open to them though. I don't completely brush them off but I am leery of it.

now that its a few days later iam a bit also. im thinking, she didnt know it was me until she had already started singing and when he said it was me, she could do nothing but continue and pretend she did. thats what my kids have said anyway.
