WELCOME!

My name is Diane. I wish I could tell you that I am the perfect mother and wife. But I am not. In fact, I created this blog with the hopes that it would help me to become a better everything. I want to find solutions to everyday issues that most parents and women have. I want to share these solutions with you and hope that you will share your advice with me as well. Thank you and welcome.

About Me

My photo
I am a mother of 4 beautiful girls. Each one special in their own way. I have a wonderful husband who makes me laugh everyday. He reminds me how good it is to be able to love someone so deeply and truly. I am a happy person who wants to be able to manage my family and home life without totally losing my mind over an occasional mishap or disappearance of socks. I live for my family but understand that sometimes I need a little me time. I enjoy crafts, holidays, cooking, and wish I was a better housekeeper. But that's part of why I am doing this. To become better!

Let's get this started!

My husband and I have decided it is time for us to lose weight and shape up. We are starting P90X tomorrow morning. I'm motivated! I know that this is going to be hard. I've tried it before and gave up the second week into the program. But this time, I'm ready. I want to feel healthy. I want to have the energy to play with my kids. I don't want to feel tired and sick all the time. I want to feel confident again. I want to feel sexy again. I want this and I am ready! So is Andy. We are going to be each other's support system. I won't let him give up and he won't let me give up. It's time to start taking care of our health. Tonight we dine on McDonald's cheeseburgers and fries and tomorrow we start eating healthy, nutritious, and delicious homemade meals. I'm so excited and so ready!
