    About Me

    I am a married Mother of two. I work a full time job and try to balance my family and children, but that gets to be challenging. I believe you get out of life what you put into it. Like my Mother used to say, "Treat others as you wish to be treated." I truly believe the world would be a better place if everyone lived by that motto.

    Interests

    Running, walking, spending time with my kids (whether it be going on a bike ride or watching them play their sports and growing up into such young men), being home, cooking or baking a new recipe, and just trying to get through life and making a few memories along the way.

    • I’m With You

      From KACKY Yesterday

      I can totally understand, my life is crazy but not like most I guess. It is hard with family but it's nice when we can take time to take care of ourselves or even be lasy :) Today I finally went to the gym and it felt great, still look good :) I'm always glad how much I can do cuz of how far I have come. Jimmy is in tub now, we had to stop at the grocery store after gym so very late for us. It's 9:30 now so gotta get him cleaned up and bed time. Have a good weekend and hope you enjoyed the boys time off, pretty soon will be x-mas break. Jimmy gets 2 weeks off. Wish I did, will have enough since working all week this week and next to take some extra days off. It will be nice. Bet hubby missed ya while he was gone! Lots of quality time.

      Type: Maintain a workout schedule

      Hi! My name is Lola. I live in WI where the weather is unpredictable, which is a big reason I chose a treadmill to do my workouts. I started running 2 years ago because I reached a point after having my kids, that I wanted to get healthier and have more energy. My energy level has increased ALOT and it gives me a sense of accomplishment too. It is a way for me to clear my mind, lower any stress, and improve my mood. (Which my family appreciates.) I hope to be your friend too.

    • Close Psoriasis

      I was diagnosed with psoriasis about 12 years ago. I have tried everything under the sun for it. Creams, gels, liquids, steroids. You name it I tried it. After having my kids, the doctor finally agreed to put me on something stronger. At first, I was on cyclosporine for a couple of years and then they switched me to methotrexate, which I take 6 2.5 MG tablets a week. I used to take 8, but they want me at the lowest dose possible since it is hard on my liver.
