When I told my family and friends that I started a blog, most expressed their distaste for my decision. One even stated that I have "way to much time on my hands". Well currently that's the case. I have been out of work since last June and being able to write a blog gives me something to do, something to accomplish. Most people that I tell just roll their eyes. This includes my husband, who thinks that I have better things to do with my time. I didn't realize how very unsupportive many people can be.

I am not a great writer and I do not expect many...well anyone for that matter, to read or respond to my blog. Its more of a personal writing experience, like a journal, but without pen and paper. I've always wanted to be a writer. I know that I don't have the great American Novel in my head...I never will, but at times I can be witty and interesting. Today's blog won't be either of those things.

This morning I got up and ate oatmeal in a cup, not that the oatmeal in a cup makes the oatmeal smaller, all my bowls were is the dishwasher ready to be washed. Yesterday and the day before I went to the gym, big deal right? Well, I have made a deal with myself. My husband wants to get a tattoo on his fortieth birthday, I want to get one when I lose 40 pounds!

I am reading the Blueberry Muffin Murder. I haven't finished it yet, but when I do I will have a lot to say. In the last two weeks I've finished 3 books and will be more than happy to talk about them in another blog.

Have a great day everyone! Well just me, as I'm the only one who actually reads this stuff :). (are there emoticons on a blog or did I just type out a colon and parenthesis??)
