I'm usually not this shit at planning, but I'm planning wedding and life is going crazy. I have no plans, and I've been too busy to do anything.<br><br>I've not had a birthday party since my tenth birthday. I'm turning 26 in six days.<br><br>How am I still 20 years old mentality? My birthdays are usually just "I like you so here's [basic gift in range $]". This year will be my first year married, as we had a May wedding.<br><br>I'm not asking for anything specific, just plans in general. I don't know what to expect for my birthday and it's very unsettling for me. I've also been very anxious lately, so I've been feeling hopeless and lost and like I'm drowning. Birthday's are supposed to be happy, and I'm just feeling really weird.<br><br>I know I'm not the only one with no plans, but it feels like it.<br><br>Edit: okay maybe I do want something in particular, lol. I just want a simple, small dinner and cake with my husband and maybe one or two of my best friends. I don't want anything fancy, I just want to celebrate turning 26. It's not a big birthday, but I'd like to acknowledge and celebrate.<br><br>Edit 2: my husband has never been very good with surprises, and I figured it was just a given that we wouldn't have plans. I'm a little over being surprised because I'm an anxious person.<br><br>Edit 3: my birthday is still 6 days away. If you have any ideas, let me know. I am going to make a very simple cake (mix and in a cookie sheet) and decorate it. I will buy some ice cream, as well. My birthday is on a Sunday, and I usually don't do anything on Sundays. While I typically don't do anything because of our personal activity levels on the weekends, I still want to celebrate. My husband has no plans (contemplating date night), and we have no plans on actual birthday.
