2 random, fun facts about me: well, I don't have kids, so I have fur kids, as I call them. I have 2 cats and 2 dog. They are the highlight of my day.

Anything else you like to share: Like most of everyone else, I have been married for 16 years. My husband tho, is not as supportive to me in the weight loss as I would want him to be. And My family is not as supportive either.
I can be hard on myself sometimes, and I need a kick in the behind by my friends at spark to keep me going. I know this is where I belong. In spark, with spark people. I am trying to be more active in the group and in spark in general. love you guys Hope to get to know everyone alot better.

2 Random, Fun Facts about You: 1) I know, without a doubt, that I am amazing and darn cute no matter what I look like to other people! In fact, my daughter says that I have enough self-esteem for 3 or 4 women. 2) I was an extremely strict mother, but once my daughter left for college and I no longer had to tell her what to do we become best friends and we have several hour long (oe longer) phone calls every week.
Anything else you want to share: I'm home alone a great deal because my hubby is starting a business & we just relocated & I am disabled - so feel free to "sparkmail" me if you need some company or support. If I'm not on here I'm probably out in the yard or on Facebook (jen.queenofchaos@gmail.com) just tell me you are from here & I'll add you!

2 Random, Fun Facts about You: I raise horses, and love to collect cookbooks.
Anything else you want to share: I love getting to know the other members of this team! Thanks for helping make this a great team.
Name: Fauve ( I am not ready to disclose my real name, sorry) Location: East Florida Joined Spark: Twice, the last time during 2009. Weight Loss goal: 50 pounds less! -- in the long run. In the medium run goal: 20 pounds less. Random 2 about me: 1) I love to play with words, no matter in which language I am speaking or writing, no matter how well I know that language, I just feel the need to play with words. 2) I have no sense of physical orientation ( is this a true term? in English): North? South? East? West? What is that? I easily get lost if I am not familiar with an area, perhaps because I am always in my mind -- and do not pay too much attention to the external. Thank God for navigators!
More sharing: I am an introvert, fond of studying. In my dreams, however, I ride wild horses.
Hugs to you all!

2 Random, Fun Facts about You: I have an almost idiot savant memory of things I watch on tv. Last night I walked through the living room to carry folded laundry into my bedroom and as I walked back out I told my boyfriend I recall that episode of forensic files, the mine guard was found on a mountaintop, his coworker with the camaro killed him. I had seen it almost a year ago, caught maybe 3 seconds of it walking by and had instant recall. Now if I could remember important facts the same way I'd clean up on Jeopardy! I took a class for a gun permit last week, not sure if I'd ever carry one but the first time my hunny and I went target shooting I got almost all bullseyes while not even wearing my glasses. Turns out I'm a natural at something I never thought I'd try.
Anything else you want to share: I've been in the dumps for two months on my Spark program, ever since I had the flu. I'm recovered physically but am struggling to get back into routines.
I posted a 40 things about me blog a while back just chocked with random facts. The two above didn't make that list.
