Hi! I guess the first thing I would have you know about me is I have a deep and abiding love for my Savior, Jesus Christ. I realize that that one statement alone will turn many people away from what I have to say. I accept that. I have the most wonderful husband in the world...no, really! We have 8 kids and 4 grandsons. I graduated in English Education from CSU. Go Rams!! After earning my Master's degree in Educational Literacy from UNE, I was hired to work in an alternative high school teaching "those" kids. I have found my calling in life! Maybe it is because I am like "those" kids, that I enjoy them so much. I was abused when I was little. I grew up in foster homes. I was a teen mom. I struggle with dyslexia. I don't say these things because I make excuses for my life, but because I want to show my students that those things in their lives are NOT excuses. They are obstacles to be overcome. Life is full, and I am enjoying it!
I found the recipe for Cinnabons! That's not the bad part. I made a tray of them and ate half of them myself. They were sooooo good! I must burn the recipe! I am taking part in a Biggest Loser contest at work. It is a 9 week weight loss program. Last week I moved up into 2nd place....then the cinnabons. I hope it was worth the $300 I might lose. (I think it was!) I'm in trouble! I can't get them out of my mind.

I've deleted my posts thus far. They are really not like me. I have hated blogging since I started, but I have figured out that it is because of how I was blogging, and what I was saying. If I am going to talk about people, I would much rather do it in front of them. So, I am starting over. Not only in blogging, but in other aspects of my life, and I am scared to death! I am quitting my job in July...walking away from a fairly lucrative income, to be a stay at home mommy for Maggot. In August I will follow my dream and return to college. I have completed 21 units thus far...time to take the big leap and earn my degree. I am excited and pukingly sick at the same time. I hated living poor the first time....why would I want to do it again?
