Let me introduce myself

I realized today that I have never really taken the time to introduce myself. I guess that I was not really sure how often I was going to be using this site. I have found some great, supportive folks here though.

So here is me in a nutshell:

I am a stay at home mom. I used to work as a teacher but when I had my second child, decided to stay home. I miss teaching. I actually loved it very much. Guess it is in my blood, dad is a teacher too.

I have been married almost 7 years. I have 3 children. A son who is 12 (first marriage), a 3 1/2 and a 2 year old daughter. I homeschool my kids. Have thought about it for years, but finally decided to because I did not like the middle school my son would be attending. So far, so good. It has it's days though.

I love to read. Don't get much of a chance besides kids books. My guilty pleasure is reality tv. I love it. It is a chance for me to veg out and relax. My favorite ones have been The Bachelor, Rock of Love, and of course, The Biggest Loser. I would love to go on the show, but 3 months is too long. Don't know what I'd do with the kiddies.

My secret desire is to run a marathon and be a fitness consultant. Maybe one day, but I can't consult anyone else if I can't get my butt in shape. It is slowly happening though. I doubt I will ever run either. I had surgery on my foot and actually need it on my other foot. I have plantar fasciitis.

Okay, well I guess that is all I will bore you with. Drop me a line if you would like to give an intro of yourself. I would love to know more about  my EP friends.

Have a great one!

Hi there

I'm out nosing through random blogs this afternoon and came across yours.    Thought I'd drop a quick note to say hello.  I share your guilty pleasure with reality shows with The Biggest Loser being my absolute favorite. 

See you around again soon!

Reality TV

I love it! I watch Big Brother, Survivor, Biggest Loser...oh how I love my shows! I guess it gives me time to zone out and forget about my troubles for an hour.

The challange you were asking about...it runs from 1-1-08 to 2-14-08. There are some of us in a support group called FIT and we are all doing it. We all just stated what our goals were and report with our weight every week and the administrator or the group tallys up all the times we were "bad" and all the times we didnt work out or skipped a goal or whatever and at the end the person with the most points wins. So it doesnt matter really who lost the most, its more of who stuck to thier goals. Each one of us are going to send the winner a $10 gift card as a reward. I think its pretty neat.

OH no! You were a teacher...I am a horrible speller! Now I will be afraid to type any works longer than 4 letters long on your blog...I might spell a word wrong! :)
