A new me

As you all know since I started working at the prison life has been great. I love my job and after being there a year now I'm ready for a challenge. I have decided to try out for CERT (Correctional Emergency Response Team). They're the people that wear the helmets and use the shields to go in on inmates when they are acting up. I try out September 6th. The biggest challenge of the try out is being able to run 2 miles in 20 minutes. Well for this fat girl that's more than just a challenge. So since June I've started wogging (jogging and then walking). I've now lost 6lbs and am able to run 1/2 a mile without stopping to walk. I can do 1.5 miles in 20 minutes which isn't bad considering where I'm at. Before it took me 14 minutes to do 1 mile. I've also recently quit smoking.. like in the past 3 days. After reading another friends blog I'm thinking about signing up for a 5K..... I'm the smallest I've been in 6 years (which isn't very small LOL) but I'm a work in progress and ready for a new healthy me!

Hi.... it's me

Sorry it's been so long but hell, when you work a job that you love and your family life is perfectly NORMAL.. it leaves much to be desired for blog fodder.
I'm doing the correctional officer thing! Even though I work third shift and get Tuesday Wednesday as my weekend I abso-friggin-loutley love it! I wouldn't go back to the corporate world for anything!
Baby daddy is doing great in culinary arts school. Zaber started developmental kindergarten this year. It was tough at first but now he's in the groove! Mr. Butts has no desire to potty train. Not any different then his brothers!
