As I am 2 months away from officially being in my 30's, I thought it would be time to start taking care of my body. For the past ten years I have been drinking too much, smoking too much, and eating too much crap. So today marks day 11 of no smoking, and also the day I stop eating fast good disgustingness. Until the taco bell I ate last night, I hadn't eaten from a drive thru in almost two weeks, so back to the drawing board!! Last year was all about making my brain and mind healthy, and this year is about making my body healthy.
Wish me luck!!

Oh Dear.
Well. Jeez. It has got to be years since I have posted.
Lets do a quick recap :
November 2009 - gave birth to 'Baby' otherwise known as Mya. Alex calls her baby. Which gives me an OFFICIAL excuse to say 'noone puts baby in the corner' - which I SECRETLY Love!!! :)
May 2010 - I graduated from Austin Peay State University with two degrees - A BA in Studio Art and a BA in Theatre. Which basically means I am qualified to do NOTHING. :)
Also in May - I left my husband of three and a half years due to reasons too complicated to explain on a public blog. So, pending the actual FILING of divorce, I am now a single mom of two very small children. EEEEEEK.
The kids and I moved into our own place in June and we have been making due since then.
and finally -
In two weeks the kids and I will move up to Indianapolis, where I have gotten my old job back and I will be still grooming dogs, but I will be much happier with more money to provide for my children.
Thats about it. In a nutshell. I will TRY my hardest to update more so that I can provide entertainment for all those out there! :)

Here's why I suck....
So - I guess I need to do a three month update:
MARCH:
Spring break, and with it brought positive pregnancy tests and morning sickness beyond belief. I spent all week curled up in bed, trying to keep my insides in, and my outsides out. Back to school and work and being more tired then I think I have ever been in my whole life. (We'll see if this changes once the new baby is here). Back into theatre again - Assistant Stage Managed the Dance Concert. This involved failing asleep after eating too many jellybeans back stage. And trying to throw up quietly during performances.
APRIL:
Was suckered into Stage Managing the Student Directed One Acts. 12 shows, 12 directors, 23+/- actors. I'm screwed. THEN was suckered into running the light board as well. This was not as bad as I thought. Except for when I 'intentionally' sabotaged one of the shows. Just Kidding. Although, that's not what the director thought. Ended up missing a weekend in Indy, Dave Matthews and losing my best friend in the process. Sucks to be a theatre major. What did I get from all my hard work? An art scholarship and a theatre scholarship, and maybe I'll be able to graduate next may. Finals came and went. Two A's, a B and a C. Not too bad for not learning anything.
MAY: Getting ready for Drew to go to Iraq. Mother's day vacation in Gatlinburg turned into our other house getting robbed, but thankfully no one was hurt. Fast forward to the 19th and I'm 16 weeks pregnant, my son says monkey and my husband goes to war in 2 weeks.
Sorry for the lack of updates.
