About Me
This box has been blank for awhile, I suppose I should give some insight as to the person I am. I was born, raised, and live in Colorado Springs, CO. I have been married just shy of seven years. I have two dogs that complete the family until I can have children. I have struggled with self esteem, body image, eating disorders, self-injury and PTSD since my mom passed away 7 years ago. I have a wonderful therapist who is helping me get through the past so I have a desire to have a future. I work in marketing at a Real Estate company. I am generally a happy person, a front I have learned and perfected over the course of a lifetime. Once you convince the world you are happy and okay it is easy to fake your way through anything-healthy? not so much but it works for me. I am a natural redhead :) I have my degree in psychology, I enjoy all music and movies and have a very supportive, loving spouse.

Interests
I love the gym, playing the wii, going for hikes, and going to the movies. I enjoy shopping and walking and most of all sleeping. I love to sleep and feel that naptime should be mandatory :) I love snow in the winter and warm summers. i love the smell of fresh rain and the flowers that bloom. I love the fall trees and sitting for hours people watching. I have a slight addiction to coffee :)

Hug
Oh my God, congratulation. I can't tell you how happy I am for you. You wanted a baby so bad and now you are having two. That is a miracle. Is your husband excited? Have you worked things out in therapy about your brother? I really hope so because I want only happiness for you from now on. Is ED still in your life?

Hi there, how are you doing. I didn't even think you were on DS anymore. I went to IP and just got back about two weeks ago. I'm still going strong but it's getting harder each day. Any baby news yet? Guess, what, I will be a grandma in January. I'm so excited.
