First Post

Okay, so this is my first attempt at starting a blog. It will probably take me awhile to get going, but after reading blogs from all my friends, I was inspired to try my own. The title of my blog is Life in the Zoo, because I feel that things around here are crazy sometimes! I have 2 large dogs, 1 cat, a job, and a husband that travels. I am going through fertility treatments. I am part of a book club. I take karate classes. I like to try to find time to scrapbook, quilt, shop, read, ebay, play around on the internet, keep up with email and Facebook and MySpace, and then I still have to do all the piddly little chores that never seem to get done -- laundry, cleaning, errands, etc. It's amazing I'm sane!!! This picture actually shows a calm moment in my life, which is probably why I chose it. It was before a date night, and we were looking pretty darn good! I think I was also 10-15 pounds lighter in that picture as well, which makes me feel good! Anyway, I'll try to keep up with the blogs and see how I do..... can't wait!
