My name is Heather. I'm 30 yrs old, from Virginia. I am a single mom of 2 little girls. Yes, I talk about them in my LJ but I do talk about other things other than my girls :)

I've been on Livejournal...oh wow. I can't even remember. Maybe 11 years? I used to post a lot, but it's been once in awhile lately, just because school is out for the summer, so I'm apparently entertainment director (when did I sign up for that?!) and working on my house. I don't know if you can just develop OCD, but I can't deal with the clutter in my house. I'm trying to simplify everything. And I'm the only one in my house who does anything (we live with my dad...and he's a packrat). The clutter = chaos to me...which causes stress and anxiety. Wow, I'm sounding like a basket case already! I swear I'm not ;) But yeah, I'm getting back into writing more, updating on my oh so interesting life.

I started running the beginning of last year. I went from barely being able to walk a mile in 2011 to finishing my first 8k in March of last year to finishing my first half marathon not even 6 months after my first race...so yeah, you could say running became a big passion for me. I have gotten off track the past few months, but I'm trying to light a fire under my ass and get going again. Don't take me running a half marathon for me being in shape. I am NOT. That's the goal, though. I have a long way to go, but I've also come a long way already, too. As of right now, I have 85 lbs I'd like to lose. So I talk about weight loss and running and fitness and all that good stuff, too.

As far as music goes, I love almost all of it! From rock to pop to country to classical. Rock is definitely my favorite, though. Sevendust is my favorite band.

I don't watch a lot of tv, but I do have my shows I like to watch. Big Bang Theory, King of Queens, American Horror Story, Scandal. I'm trying to get into these shows everyone talks about, like The Walking Dead, but I have to watch them from the very beginning and honestly, my ADHD doesn't allow me to sit still for that long to watch all those episodes!

I love to read. That's probably my favorite thing. I'm a dork, I know. I read almost everything, as well. I've recently stumbled upon books by Elin Hilderbrand. I read "Barefoot" and just fell in love with the style of writing and just the feel of the book, so now I'm trying to read ALL of her books. One of my favorite books is "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert. And yes...it WILL change your life. ;)

I'm trying to get into scrapbooking, but finding the patience for it has been a battle. I'm trying to live a calm, more peaceful life (think ZEN) but when you google "finding inner peace" you just get a bunch of crap...lol

I'm also trying to lose a lot of weight... I would be happy with an 85 lb. weight loss! I could never do the kind of running you are though.

Scrapbooking DOES take a lot of patience. I am so.far.behind in all of the scrapbooking I would like to do. the kids keep getting bigger, I keep taking pictures and scrapbooking isn't getting done LOL!

Anywho, I added you. Add me back if you like! :)

Yeah, that's a big goal. And that's just my "ultimate goal weight". I'll settle for losing 60 lbs right now!

Adding you :)

I'm adding you - I love Big Bang Theory and Elin Hilderbrand books, too! I actually just discovered her books as well, and I'm on a mission to read all of them, too.

Added!

Yeah, so far I've just read "Barefoot", "Silver Girl", and now I'm on "The Summer Affair". I have them all on my kindle for free but I own "Barefoot" and got the other ones from the library. I was in need of "real books" after I've been stuck on my Kindle for most of the summer.

Adding you! My bio's buried on page 4 somewhere, but you sound fun and I think I'm fun :-P

Haha I'll find it! But adding you :)

I added you, you seem interesting! Where in VA are you from?

Thanks. I'll add you back. I'm from Hampton.
