Another Year Older!

Today is my 36th Birthday! Let me put this into a little perspective, I have been with Tony (well, in May, but this works too) for half of my life. We met when we were both 18. Weird, huh?

It's been a weird birthday too. Tony is at work today, so we celebrated yesterday by going to lunch at Longhorn Steakhouse. (If you haven't eaten at Longhorn...IT IS A MUST!! The steak was tender and juicy and every bite was fabulous.) It was the kids, Tony and I, my parents and Collin, and one of my BFFs, Marti.

Since my body is in total transition, I have made gift giving unoriginal for just about everyone. I've asked for money or a gift card and then when it's time to shop, I've asked them to go with me and join in on the shopping fun. I was totally surprised when my sister was able to be VERY original with my request.


Since my celebrating was done yesterday, I haven't done anything today to celebrate. I had my 6 week follow up at WeightWise and everything is great! I've lost 40 pounds so I consider that a magnificent birthday present. After the appointments, I've pretty much just hung out here at the house and enjoyed a nice winter day inside.

I can't wait to see what my 37th year has to offer!
