About Me

My photo
I am married to my best friend. We have three daughters (2 are my husband’s and one is mine) and a son (my husband’s, all are grown and not living with us. Four grandchildren (all from my husband’s kids). I have worked in the insurance industry for 30 years, like most in the industry, it was not my life long dream, but I am passionate about my job. I love to read, but there is not enough time in the day. I have stacks of books I want to read and a list to buy. I am an only child; wish I had brothers or sisters. I do have a sister in law; she is a kick in the pants (funny and cool). I have been on Weight Watchers since February 2008 and lost 45lbs! I feel great. I reached my goal weight, the last few pounds were the hardest!

My wonderful husband!


Yesterday was my birthday. My husband took me shopping to buy clothes. He said his gift was being patient while I shopped. He did very well and I found tons of clothes, this was good as I needed them after loosing all that weight. He did get a little frustrated at the end of the day when we went to Ross Dress For Less, it was kayos, stuff strewn everywhere, kids sitting in the isles screaming. He said "I will take you to another store and spend three times as much if we can get out of here". After all the shopping we went to dinner at a sushi restaurant with our friend Angela. Dinner was great, the restaurant was sort of a club as well. We had drinks that were much needed after going to Ross, was a fun night. Angela and I had a Sweet Tart martini, they are great, we will have to try to make them soon!
