It has happened to everyone I know, and i have stories from my childhood that would make yours seem like a fairy tale. So please try to be happy and put some effort into it and realize your mom is dong her best. Even though it's your birthday, it would really be a great thing to do to help her out and then it would make it so you can have fun with your friends too. It may not be the perfect birthday, but it would be something. Band practice doesn't take all night, or all day, so do what you can when you aren't there.
I did tell her thank you, but I don't want her to sit up all night doing that, and she thinks that's what I want. It doesn't matter to me about a party or not, so I told her to forget it. I can't really have fun with my friends.. I dunno why, but I just can't. Actually I'm leaving in less than 20 minutes, and I have to get ready with no time between to clean. Then, I'm off to my grandpa's, then band practice, even though I think I'm not going anyways, then back to my grandpa's then not home till about midnight.. :/

Nope, my friends are all too busy.. As said, I'm probably not even going to band practice tonight. I can't go anywhere if I don't have any money, either. And can't call anybody since we don't have a phone.
