Bio

I am a 60 year old woman who lives in Northern Wisconsin with my husband of 34 years.

I have 2 daughters who are engineers and two beautiful grand kids, a boy
2 1/2 & a girl 2. Being a grandma is wonderful.

I got a total knee replacement in March and now I can start to walk, ride my exercise bike and walk on my treadmill.

I love to scrapbook, read, knit,crochet & play with my Grandkids.

I had lost 70 pounds and was doing really well a few years ago. Then my husband was in an accident and broke his neck in 2 places on the second vertibrae. After wearing a "Halo" for over 3 months he is doing really well, but it seemed to put a brake on my weight loss. I KNOW THAT IS JUST AN EXCUSE, BUT THAT IS WHEN IT ALL FELL APART. i know it is my fault and I need to fix it, so I am trying.
