I know, I know. Where have I been? A friend called me the other day and said, “Do you realize your last blog entry was October 26, 2010!?” Yes, I know. I know. John and I used to have annual passes to Disneyland. We would go all the time. … Continue reading The Wheel of Death

Circumstances and Situations
Today is October 25th, the anniversary of the day I broke up with an ex-boyfriend and tomorrow is the anniversary of the day I finally met my husband in person. Dates are funny. Not in a magical way.

Pulling 300 Plus Pounds Out Of The Depths Of Despair
How’s that for a dramatic title? Okay, that is definitely over speak. But WOW, it’s been an interesting couple of months. And, yes, by interesting I mean sucky.

New Amsterdam to Old Amsterdam
I arrived in New Amsterdam yesterday morning. Tuesday morning rather. I am a bit confused on what time or day it is. The redeye was crazy from LAX to JFK. It was supposed to be “wide open” and it wasn’t. Lots of last minute travelers got on that flight. … Continue reading New Amsterdam to Old Amsterdam
Fat Girl Travels
When reading other people’s blogs I have often thought of them as self indulgent and arrogant. I don’t know that mine will be different. I started thinking what do I have to offer people that would be of any interest. Besides my upcoming travels to Amsterdam what is it that would make… Continue reading Fat Girl Travels
First of Many
Since not making my flight to Amsterdam Wednesday night, and now having 3 days before I try again, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to start a blog. Originally, I was going to keep a daily handwritten journal. I still may do that. Old habits die hard. I figured… Continue reading First of Many
