As I sit here....

I wonder why....why have I developed a seeming addiction to Facebook games?  Why do my husband and son insist on watching "American Hoggers"?  Why haven't I learned to shoot a gun yet?  Why is there a piece of plastic inside my drink?  And the list goes on....

Random thinkings....

Started a blog two years ago...last post?  Two years ago!  Let's try this again....

Not actually feeling uber-eloquent right at the moment, so I suppose this 'first' post will be short and sweet....

First off, can I say how fabulous it would be to meet Chef Curtis Stone at my local Hy-Vee?  And I'd also like to run into ALL of the 'Crashers' at Home Depot or Lowe's....I could really put those people to work!  (Is it obvious I'm watching TV as I type?!?)

Secondly, let me just put this out there in cyberspace (not that it's not already there in some fashion anyway): I am trying to lose weight.  I've done it before, but gained it all back.  I also located some poundage I didn't lose in the first place.  My hope is that transparency will be key to continued success on this particular journey.

Last and NEVER least, I must also put out in cyberspace how very much I LOVE my husband and my kids.  No, they're not perfect.  Neither am I.  But they're pretty fantastic anyway, and I wouldn't trade them for ANYTHING!!

And that's that.  The first post.
