About
The basics:
* I am a stay at home mom to two year old George. I have been married to my husband, Brian, for 5 five years.
* In my former life (before I was laid off last year), I worked in corporate real estate for a very large drug pusher coffee company.
*I grew up in a very small community in Northwestern Washington State (I add state for all you east coasters who automatically think D.C. – boo 
*I went to college about 10 miles from where I grew up – and ended up packing up everything and moving to England to study literature when I was 21. I am a complete and total Anglophile.
* When I graduated college, I moved to Seattle, where I ran into my husband, who was a friend in college – just a friend. Three years later, we married.
* I love cooking, reading, blogging, attempting to be domestic, my friends and meeting new people.
* I have struggled with my weight, for real, since I was in my early twenties. But if you asked me when I was in high school, I was fat then too.
* I lost 30 pounds using Weight Watchers when I was about 24. I kept it off, for the most part, till I got pregnant. Then I gained 70 pounds. Whoops.
*My goal weight is 145. That’s 20 more pounds (I’ve nearly lost twenty with the Sisterhood). If I could get to 140, cool, but I haven’t weighed that little since I was in college. (I am 5′8″, if you’re wondering).
* I love Wii Active, Jillian Michaels, running, and have newly discovered hot yoga. I’m game to try pretty much any fitness activity. As long as it doesn’t include heights or too much hand/eye coordination!
