Introduction Text Working on living a healthy, active lifestyle. Need to lose that post-baby weight that is way over due! Updated 8/27/13 I am a full time wife and mother of 1 daughter, Evie (born 2005) and 1 son, Jay (born 2008). In addition we also have an English Bulldog (born 2010). I am currently working towards my BBA/MSA in Accounting to go onto get my CPA. Aug 14 2013 I took on a new part time Accountant position at an Architecture firm. I still have 3 years of school left but we are wanting to get a bigger house so I decided to take on a part time job now. Both my children are going to be in school full time so I will drop them off go to work until 1, go home spend time with the hubby for a couple hours then pick the kids up (we do school of choice) then home. During the fall 2013 I will have class T & Th 5-6:15 and W 6:30-9:10. Going to be busy and hectic but to those who know me know I am constantly on the go and this is nothing new. Began this journey May 11, 2011 and its been a roller coaster ride from the beginning. I wanted to be thin by 30 but the bday has since passed and I am still 40+ lbs away from goal. update Jan 2, 2012: I didn't reach those 2011 goals, but its a new start to a new year for a new journey! My goals are still the same, my program has changed just a small bit. This year is a year of committment, no more convenience!!!! updated 10/10/11: I have had quite a number of setbacks over the summer. Now that DH is finally returning to work from his injury, I have NO MORE excuses. It is time to get back on track! It is time for ME!!! I need to be healthy not only for myself but for my family!

I live in Southeastern Michigan. I currently hold an Associates Degree in Occupational Studies Major: Business. I regularly volunteer at my childrens school for lunch duty and class events. I plan to complete my studies in winter 2014 (I go part time).

I love mystery, romance and non-fiction novels. I love chick flicks, comedies, scary movies, and anything that has to deal with natural disasters (The Day After Tomorrow is one of my favorite movies). We have a collection of close to 200 Disney/Dreamworks kid/family movies and it is still growing. Love sports, Baseball and Football are my favorites! Go Lions, Go Big Blue, Go TIGERS! Love music from all genres, bowling, concerts, family outings...
