Welcome to my SparkPage!

I've been a member of SparkPeople since October 2006. I've had many fluctuations in my weight through the years. I've been maintaining a 25 pound weight loss for over a year, and credit small healthful changes with helping me maintain the loss.

In 2019 I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer which was life-changing. So far, all is well and I'm continuing on my healthy living journey!

We recently moved "back home" which has been a very challenging process for which I've been thankful for my physical fitness.

    Thank you for reading my blog about “My 600 pound life”
    The personal stories and observations shared were very helpful to me and I’m sure to others as well.

    Thank you for your support and encouragement on my “Facing my Fear” blog.
    We can only grow and improve by getting out of our comfort zone and I did just that.

    Oh my. A pileated!! They are so beautiful -- the biggest woodpecker!! And they can be so playful, just bouncing up and down on a branch for the sheer pleasure of it. I can remember clearly the handful of times I've seen a pileated woodpecker -- in Florida, and here too in our back yard -- where one drilled such an enormous hole in an ancient red maple that a huge branch came down right on our third floor back deck in a windstorm. And: after I'd paid the arborist bill, I still didn't regret that it had paid us a visit.

    Thank you for reading my blog about New Years Eve 1942
    I hope that remembering the sacrifices earlier generations made for others will encourage us to do the same.

    Thank you for reading my blog about my rather unusual Christmas gifts and for your kind words That bird feeder is a gift that will keep on “giving” for long time both to me and to the birdies.
