About Me:All I need to learn I learned in Kindergarten:
I was born in the late summer 1975 (Sept 15) to be exact, in a hospital right in St. Paul. My parents moved a few times when I was little, but the house I remember is the only house I grew up in. It was in a cute quaint suburb, (not so cute and quaint now, its rather big and soon to be called Cottagebury or Woodgrove).
I was rather quiet when I was teenager, but I did cause my fair share of trouble (running away one memorial weekend comes to my mind first), but in spite of all that, I remained pretty much on the straight and narrow. I had made a handful of friends, and still remain tight with most of them even now, several (ok, 14) years after graduation.
I married my high school sweetheart when I was 20 and we had our first child. Things were good for about 2 years, and we had another baby, and things started to go downhill. We got divorced and I remarried a year and a half later, to a sexy welshman, and we have two beautiful kids.
I graduated from Inver Hills Community College with an A.S. degree in legal studies.
I currently work part-time as a legal assistant.

I have been hearing about the breast cancer 3 day event for a few years now, but never have I actually THOUGHT about doing it until this year. I am thinking about training for the event for a number of reasons, the biggest one for me is that would get me motivated to lose the weight i have been wanting to lose but have lacked in motivation.
I also want to do it because I lost my grandmother to cancer when I was a teen. She was young, early 60's if my memory serves me correctly. It started out in her breast, in which she had a masectomy, but it eventually came back, by way of her lungs, and it eventually caused her death; so this hits home for me. I am sure some of you have been struck by breast cancer. A friend, a relative, a collegue. You can find more information about the twin cities 3 day event at their website, 08.the3day.org. I urge you to check out the site for more information.
If you are interested, please let me know. I was chit chatting with Amy James in the K102 chatroom about creating a team, and I would like to get a feel for how many are interested. (We would be known as the K102 crew) ;)
HAHAHA!! Ok well not REALLY shift work persay, but I work a specific shift at this law office, and for the last few days, it has been really slow. Like ... REALLY slow, so slow that the Slowsky's turtles move faster than this. Well anyway, its slow enough for me to be concerned about my status here. I have been looking for new work for a while, about a month I should say now, ever since my husbands untimely, and unwarranted termintation, but havent had much luck. I suppose my own unhappiness is showing because I am now concerned about my own status. If he was working, i would definately put in my notice. I am -that- unhappy. I'd like for things to turn around here, but if I'm unhappy, I'm pretty certain that my attornies can see I'm unhappy, but yet, it doesn't seem to change much, which makes matters worse for me, because the less work I have the MORE unhappy I seem to become. It's not really fair on either part, but thats what seems to be happening these days.
So today, one attorney has court, one left, the other left for a client meeting, and the other a haircut. Now, I only work till 4pm. Is it wrong of me to WANT to sneak out early, when NOONE is here to know I did and there is no work to do? Let me know!
Omg! I am in such a state of shock! Both my guesses for the bottom two are safe and I can not believe it. What is America thinking? After Brooke started and "lost the lyric" she restarted and managed to stay in the competition for another week?
I can not say that I am happy with America's decision. Im gonna boycot! Who's with me?
