Yup. All this snow that is falling freely from the sky! We have a winter storm warning up through Friday A.M. wow! 10-20 inches depending on where you are...oh yeah, up to 2 feet by NewBerry Mom and Dad! Arent you glad you left when you did..you crazy winter Texans!!! Love ya! It slowed down this afternoon after the system snow moved out, now we are waiting for the NW winds to pick up and scoop up that Lk. Michigan moisture and dump more of that fluffy white stuff on us. Here's to a white Christmas and lots of happy skiiers!

Personal Post.

Well, Blogs are for lots of reasons and sometimes they are for airing dirty laundry...This weekend was fun but also a bit tough. I was confronted by someone I love very much about my weight. This is something that I have dealt with since I was a teenager (though I didnt balloon up until I was in my mid- twenties and now) What frustrates me is that people ASSUME that I eat too much, which on the contrary, I eat too little most days. I have been to a doctor asking them to do something, anything. What they have found is that my body produces to much of the male hormone, it's a slight amount above, but enough to wreck havoc on my weight and appearance (hair growth in places women SHOULD NOT have hair), I have been desperate in the past to lose weight. I have exercised obsessively, I have starved myself for months, I have denied myself any joy in food, only to have any weight I have lost come racing back. It breaks my heart that I have spent a large majority of my life dealing with this. I do not want my daughter to have to go through what I have. I pray to God that she does not inherit the imbalance that has basically ruined my physical life. Once again this monster has reared its ugly head and I am faced with many choices on what to do. My Dr. and I are working on this and I would appreciate encouragement, not remarks...believe me I dont need someone to point out my weight...it's the first thing I think about in the morning and the last before I go to bed. Thanks for letting me air my mind. It was a tough weekend.

Christmas Tree Hunt!




We cut down our tree today, before the weather changed. It is blowing and wet out right now.


Emma had No idea what was up, but she likes the tree. We got a Douglas Fir...for 10 dollars lol..its great knowing tree growers!
