Another Year Older (but not much wiser)

Survived my birthday.  Nothing too exciting this year.  Slept in, had a cupcake for breakfast, went to the mall (and didn't find a gift), dinner with the family and then dessert with my DM birthday "twin".

The hubby was an ass all day and I have been actively avoiding him because of his behaviour.  Thank god I got to have a vent session regarding his behaviour last night!!  I wont go into detail about everything now; that's another post for another day!

Still stuffed from dinner and dessert!!  I think that I gained back all the weight that I lost....ate sooo much food!

Dinner-- We went out for German food.  Would have loved a proper Midwest/German meal but that is almost impossible to find in SoCal.  Had to settle for regular German food!!
