It was my 25th birthday yesterday. My dh has come out in Chicken Pox just as ds (17mo) is recovering...I'm 7 months pregnant and had to finish attaching skirting boards to our new house before the carpet turns up tomorrow.

I have decided today, to sit in my pajamas (albeit rather fetching maternity pajamas) and eat my chocolate fudge birthday cake (still in its box) with a serving spoon.

I think this is acceptable. I doubt my mother agrees.

Shmoz, dead and buried according to the twisted logic I was presented with...when I argued I was reminded that I'm closer to 30 (and therefore death) then 10 (and therefore still young).

How utterly depressing.

I don't think there's a better way to eat cake than to selfishly scoff it all in your pj's tbh. Well done Grin

I'm now thinking of cake myself.

Happy Birthday!

Youare, there's a small stash of twigs accumulating outside my flat

Happy Birthday, i felt the same when i hit 25 (still 25), especially when my family started say 1/4 century old or 2.5 decades.

30 for me is a scary thought

"Youare, there's a small stash of twigs accumulating outside my flat"
