Making a change!


February 2020 will be 11 years since I joined Spark People. I love all the resources available here & have made some great friends. The past few years since moving from Missouri to Washington have been full of ups and downs. I have dealt with the stress & depression by eating. Unfortunately I have gained a lot of the weight I had lost back so am starting over again. Here's to 2020 being a better year!

    Welcome home to Missouri! You might be lucky. It's cooled off pretty much tonight, and you might have some cooler weather. If so, enjoy it while you can! Good weather is fleeting here.

    I have been thinking of you and the fires over that way, did they get close to your home?
    We are having storms later today so got my work done outside early.
