I am a married 53 year old mother of four. As most moms, my kids are my life and I thoroughly cherish each day with them. This is my 29th year of teaching special education. I love the kids. I have been struggling with the diagnosis of hypothyroidism and now am entering the world of menopause. I have maintained a healthy lifestyle with the support of family, friends and this community. I now look at non-scale victories over a number on the scale. I have been running for about six years. ...
I am a married 53 year old mother of four. As most moms, my kids are my life and I thoroughly cherish each day with them. This is my 29th year of teaching special education. I love the kids. I have been struggling with the diagnosis of hypothyroidism and now am entering the world of menopause. I have maintained a healthy lifestyle with the support of family, friends and this community. I now look at non-scale victories over a number on the scale. I have been running for about six years. In 2014 I ran 12 runs in 12 months. They included 7 half marathons, three 10k and two 5k runs. Since that time I have run a few 50k, a couple marathons and a 50 mile race.

Member Since: 12/16/2009

My Goals:
1. Accept all that is "thrown" at me.
2. Exercise for enjoyment, not competition.
3. To share the running experience with family and friends.
4. Continue to live a healthy lifestyle.

My Program:
 Eat smart, MOVE daily and love the "new" me.


Personal Information:
I love horses! I've rode and trained them for over 30 years. I've also taught therapy dog classes for 17 years. I guess I'm an "all around" educator.

Other Information:
 Mom of four kids ages 19-24. I now run trails and I love it! No more concrete for me.

    emoticon for the emoticon and your kind words.
    I am emoticon you enjoy the devotionals for dieters and blogs.
    I notice you write a lot of blogs so when I finish here I will read one of them.
    emoticon for reaching your goal. You will find you will go back and forth a little some of it being water weight.
    I can't go below 145 or above 155 and still be within leeway at my TOPS club though.
    God bless you.

    Thank you for your input on my blog.I have always had dogs from rescue, and the last one I had for 10 years was an Irish Setter .

    Now my husband and I( my older son as well)are "sold" for the breed.

    I wasn't looking to buy at all, but I can't find anything close to us.

    I'll do my best to make the right decision.

    Thanks for visiting my blog! My boyfriend went down to the river yesterday and I couldn't believe it when he told me that the foundry workers were almost under water!! It's going to be very strange to walk down there with limited access!
