Topic: Being Me
Well it is June 13, 2006 and I am starting a journal. Hopefully it will help to write things down. First I will tell somethings about me. I am a 43 (soon to be 44) year old mother. At one time I was a nurse but after 12 years of that I had to quit do to being stressed out all the time. I stpped being a nurse in 2001. From there I went on to be a substitute teacher, which I loved and now I am back in school to be a biology teacher fulltime. I have achieved an associates degree in biology. I got married in January 2000, and between my husband (Carl) and me (Donna)we have 4 boys. Ages 14(Kyle),15(Cody),17 (Jared) and 22(Jason). Jason married about 1 1/2 years ago to a woman (Karan) who had a little boy (Malachi) and then they had a baby named Kera. Kera is now little over a year old and is starting to walk. My fortys have been horrible for me personally not because of anything that has happened but just because I seemed depressed all the time. I have started on antidepressant and they seem to be helping somewhat. After turning 40 I gained about 50 pounds. I went from being 97# to being 150 in less that a year. I have lost about 5 of those pounds. Well that is my current life in a nutshell. As the days roll by if I can remeber to enter entries in here, you may discover more things about me.
