Hello, new friends!
I am Spiritbird, and I live in the Ozark Mountains of Southern Missouri. I live in a big old house in the country, near a tiny town, alone except for my three big dogs and three cats. I am the mother of one son, age 47, and four daughters, the youngest girl is 24, and I have grandchildren older than my youngest daughter, which is great fun. Unfortunately, only the two youngest girls live in the area, (but more than ah hour away)and none of the grandchildren, so I spend almost all my time alone, and take great comfort in eating.
I am Cherokee/ Irish, almost 65, and retired. I spend way too much time on the computer, and love to read. I don't watch much TV, but enjoy a few shows.
Weight has been a struggle all my life, and it has come to the point that I absolutely have to get it off, and keep it off, for the sake of my health. I hope to make some friends here, and look forward to getting to know all of you.
