Not really. Well, I could say that I have a little sad memory about my 30th birthday. My paternal grandmother died that day. She was an ideal type of grandmother, unlike my maternal one. Also, I remember that one of my psychiatric hospitalizations fell during a birthday. It was actually not that bad, considering. They made a big deal about it. I was surprised. I hadn't expected anything, or been dwelling on it. As for when my birthday rolls around, I don't give either that much thought. I don't keep track of death (or other bad) anniversaries. I choose to remember loved ones all of the time and put bad times behind me. When I'm well, I don't dwell on sadness. Plus, I've been known to almost forget (or forget) my anniversary, my husband's name day/birthday, and even my own birthday. [Hubby gets angry since he is a like a little boy about such days.]

Q: What was your favorite gift you ever received on a holiday (Christmas, birthday, or other holiday)?
