My Goals:
* be strong & reasonably slim
* get 7.5-8 hours of sleep per night
* get to 148 (or less) & maintain
* make excellent use of the abundant veggies & fruits we get early June to late October through a CSA (community-sponsored agriculture) project
My Program:
* get to bed by 10:30-11:00 each night
* exercise 3-5 times per week
* eat within my recommended range
* cook good food at home & eat out less
* give myself small rewards to keep it fun!
Personal Information:
I'm a writer (poet) & editor. Also love to sing harmony (which I do on my church's worship team), read, folk dance, & just contemplate beautiful things. I'm a sporadic visual artist too & look forward to returning to a couple of picture-book projects when my schedule allows.

Happy 2nd SPARKVERSARY! What a wonderful accomplishment you have made, since most of the people who joined when you did have long since quit and given up on themselves! I just love seeing how much you have done to reach your goals! 
I know this THIRD year will be even better!!
