Okay will someone please tell me what's the difference between Public/Charter/Private school systems? I just want my children to get a quality education in an environment where they will be encouraged to achieve greatness. I remember my teachers growing up in public school. There was at least one teacher from
each school who inspired me.
Stark Elementary Mrs. Repulz, Mr. Cantor, and Mrs. Samperi
Dolan Middle Mr. Thompson
Rippowam High Mrs. Fitzsimmon and science teacher whose name escapes me

Insanity Recovery Week
So, yesterday was day one of "Recovery Week" which means that I've made it to week 5 of my newest fitness challenge. I am hoping to see a flatter stomach by the end of this part of my journey
SIDEBAR:
Why can't people just be happy for others. No one can take anything away from you that God has for you. Don't waste so much energy trying to crush the dreams of others. As for me and my dreams, you have no idea how big they are, if you had a clue, you'd realize trying to deter me would be like a full time job and you'd quit.
Get yours because i'm going to get mine and if I can help you along the way, I will.

Down Sized
I went to Old Navy at the Forum over the weekend to buy some every day wash and wear jeans. Not only did I find a great pair of jeans for $19 I also found a pair of shorts for just $6.99; yet that's not even the best part about my trip.
REWIND:
In January of this year when I really became serious about "Losing It", I set a goal in my mind to be in a size 14 (Regular) not 14W; by my anniversary, which is in 10 more days. In my mind a size 14 and 170lbs is where I wanted to be.
FAST FORWARD:
Those new shorts and jeans are... DRUM ROLL PLEASE... a size 14 Regular. Yes that's right, I reached my anniversary goal with 2 weeks to spare. I am soooooo excited...
BUT...
I want more. It turns out that for my body type a 14 regular IS NOT 170 pounds. I still have some work ahead of me. You know what though, seeing the progress and the noticeable results gives me the motivation to keep pushing forward. I still have times when I don't want to workout or eat right. Truth be told I even cry during my workouts at times, but when my family tells me that I don't have to do it, I reply "If I don't do it for me no one else will"...
June 2011 I was in a solid size 20W
June 2012 I am in a size 14 Regular
