It’s my birthday too, right? Shouldn’t I have a special birthday? Bittersweet birthday But I decided this year, I’m not going to do that again.
The last few years, I was feeling unhappy, sad, and depressed on my birthday. And, believe me, I think of them both every day. My mother is gone almost nine years and my sister, three years.Įvery year on their birthdays, I light a candle.
BITTERSWEET BIRTHDAY PLUS
50+ yearsįor more than 50 plus years, I shared a birthday with these two amazing women. And, now, I’m left holding the birthday alone. Both my mother and my sister passed away. My mother’s birthday is the day after our birthdays. Squasht Boutique's bittersweet birthday: I wanted a party, and all I got was a lousy pandemic.And, speaking about birthdays and birthday love, as many of you know, I share a birthday with my sister.

So in lieu of an in-person party, we are going ONLINE for the weekend with our discounts and giveaways. I won’t go on and on here about how much this pandemic is affecting all of us, we all know that by now, yadda yadda. Surprise! Opposite day! What can we do? There are worse things that could happen and worse things are happening. Instead of a party with cute dogs, custom cocktails, games & prizes, we got. At my fantasy 10 year party, everyone is laughing and petting dogs. Obviously, dogs love a good Squasht party. A disproportionate amount of dogs would show up. Excessive excitement and screaming would happen every time someone won something. Rules of the games would be confusing as hell, but nobody would care. You love our selection, our store, and our parties, and we love you. Symbiosis.ĭrinks and discounts would be flowing and we’d play some corny, terribly executed games involving lots of giveaways. You are the reason we are in business, so it would be a big love fest all around. Too many to name here, but YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. Tons of friends and customers would show up to grab a cocktail, show their support, and enthusiastically buy things. My job post that night would be “floating,” a term I made up to make myself feel absolutely fine about getting “tipsy” while “working”. As per tradition, Anna would be on the register, with Ellen, Candice, and Zia on the sales floor. I mean it is Squasht’s TEN YEAR BIRTHDAY PARTY after all, right?! I'd be gushing about how she always does our "beverage program" because I love saying dumb stuff like that. I'm imagining the Jo Snow bar cart, with Melissa all decked out in Squasht, serving up the tastiest & most well-garnished concoctions, and bringing her fun vibes and positivity to the room. Melissa from Jo Snow was all set to make us custom 10-year anniversary cocktails combining my favorite flavors, cardamom & ginger. If you know me, you know I really wanted a party for my store’s ten year anniversary! Dude, it was gonna be epic. ❤️The silver lining is that we still love each other.
