I'VE BEEN TAGGED!!!

7 Things you may not know about me:

1) I have serious road rage issues! Marvin says my personality changes when I drive. People make me made when they do dumb things while driving. Talking on the phone and driving is the big one nowadays. People can't drive the speed limit and talk on the phone at the same time. SHUT UP and DRIVE!!!

2) My biggest fear is spiders and centipedes! I once called my dad at work to tell him there was a centipede on the ceiling and I needed him to come home and get it. Wrong... he told me to get a broom and hit it, so I put the phone down and got the broom and smacked it and when I did I screamed. He wasn't sure what was going on.

3) I asked Jesus in my heart when I was 19 yrs old and haven't looked back. One of the greatest moments in my life.

4) When I was little I was playing outside in the snow and there was ice stuck on the fence and I wanted a bite of it and when I took a bite I got stuck. My tongue was stuck pretty good and I couldn't talk so I screamed and my brother finally heard me and got my parents, but by the time they got to me I had already ripped it off and I had a fat tongue and couldn't talk and had to go to ballet that night!! Just like "A Christmas Story".

5) One of the biggest tragedies in my life was when my 4 week old Niece, Amber died of crib death(SIDS) when I was 17. It was one of the worst experiences of my life and one I'll never forget.

6) Since I was about 12 yrs old I always wanted to be a cop. I wish now I would have done it but I always have that desire to go hang out with a bunch of cops and take people down!! I'm also good at catching shop lifters!!!

7) One of my biggest regrets in life was that I did really bad in high school and I wish I could do it over again. Now I push my kids to do their best so they can be successful and go to college.

That's it for me.

One Year=success or failure???

Well, one year ago today I joined weight watchers! It has been a hard year. I was very successful in the beginning. I dropped a total of 41 pounds and thought I was on the road to skinniness!! I was looking pretty good and my self esteem was through the roof! Unfortunately, all good things come to and end:( Even though I have yet to say the two words I normally would say given the situation, I'm still not going to say them. I have gained a good portion of the weight back, more that I want to admit but I just can't seem to get back on the band wagon. I also gave up Pepsi and have recently started drinking it again after a year of being Pepsi free. I don't really have a good explanation as to why I had this set back. Everyday I try to get back up but it gets harder and harder. Gastric bypass sure looks good right now! That would be the easy way right? So the journey continues.. I am looking forward to the nice days outside so I can get active again. I got new roller blades last week and I'm ready to get some exercise!

I do have some good news to share... Tomorrow I start training at the new Meijer in Allen Park!!! I'm really excited to start working again and making some extra money. Brand new start in a brand new store.

The kids are on Spring Break this week and we have been doing stuff everyday to keep busy. Monday we spent the day at COSI in Toledo, with my dad. This morning we went bowling( as usual the kids all kicked my butt)then this evening we went skating with the girl scouts (the new roller blades worked good) Tomorrow we will sleep in and I start work in the afternoon. Marvin is off on Thursday, so If I don't work we will do something with the kids. (Boy that sounds strange..work)

Well, that's all 4 now.
