boy I keep making changes!

So I was thinking, maybe I really do need to blog. Maybe blogging is the way to get out my daily frustrations and joys and with 4 kids and a child like grown man in my home and battling the bulge I need to be heard, or at least let it all out. So lets go for the basics for todays blog (I'm hoping to blog daily, at least on weekdays)

so about me:

I have an army of children, They're my world. I married my high school, but divorced him because he grew up and changed. Me, i stayed the same. I still dye my hair pink on occasion. I still like holey jeans, converse and band tshirts. I like tattoos and piercings and work from home so i don't have to hide or remove them. Yes I have a lot of tattoos (almost half sleeves, a chest piece and random others spread out over my body). No they can't be counted. Yes they hurt. I'm not a conventional parent but my kids are well cared for and probably better than the children of overworked yuppies. My kids are artistic free spirits with unique personalities and I will not stifle that. I don't go out much anymore but when I do I like shows. I still go in the pit but end up regretting it later. I'm not as young as I used to be. I'm random and silly. I like horror movies and classic stuff, pin up style and muscle cars. I had a 73 nova but that moron that lives with me traded it for a 46 dodge truck. I'd rather listen to music than watch tv. I have a fiance (he gave me a 3 stone black diamond ring. yes they make black diamonds I was shocked to discover this.) He's 9 years younger than me so technically I'm not a cougar. His hands are always dirty from working on cars and he often smells, but I lack a sense of smell so it works. He is the only one that can make me laugh when I'm furious. Sometimes he knows me better than I know myself.

My weight has fluctuated over the years

1997 after baby number 1 135
1999 after baby number 2 169
2000 ww and gym 145
2002 baby number 3 180
2009 baby number 4 201
2010 getting my butt in gear 204

Last offical weigh in was last friday and it put me at 202.2 so I lost "almost" 4 pounds!

My ultimate goal is to weigh 134 lbs (total of a 70 lb loss) and join a roller derby and kick some butt.

fyi my df is often refered to as "turtle". It's been his nickname for many years and since before I met him (he has a long neck, which I find attractive....wish I had a long neck so my double chins wouldn't be so prominent)

  1. Nice to see you are starting to blog!! :) I only do it on weekdays also, no time on the weekends and I have a pretty easy job so I do it at work. We also have a 77 Nova but hubby turned it into a drag car and it is no longer street legal. I'd love to get a 69 Camaro!! :) Hope you stick with the journaling even if you don't get many comments, it's good to write stuff down! :)
