Me, open and candid

Well here it is... My first post to my new blog. I have never had a blog before but have been recently inspired by a friend's hilarious blog about her life with her 3 boys and her husband. (www.theseatstaysup.blogspot.com)

Let me introduce myself. I am a 26 year old, just married woman, who, just as most women do, loves food, travelling, wine and shoes. In the midst of my quite uneventfully boring work life, my consequential home life is anything but dull. For one, being married to and living with a man like my husband brings a certain level of craziness to my life.... Actually, it entales all of the craziness in my life. You'll see!

Since getting married (which was only 2 months ago!), I have managed to pack on an extra 15 pounds on an already not-so-skinny body. I decided to share some things with whomever happens to stumble across this blog, and one of those things is my weight as well as my goals. Have you ever had that dreaded moment when you put your jeans on and they are tight? ... That happened to me this morning, but, I couldn't tell you if they were tight, since I couldn't actually get them on! Eeek! I got on the scale and wanted to cry, scream, shout profanities.... well I did that a little bit. I am 185 lbs. But, I am sharing this with you because I have made it a goal to get down to a more reasonable weight. By April 30th, I will be 155 lbs.... Hopefully!

Travelling is my weakness... and food, but let's talk about travelling! My husband and I have a trip planned to Croatia. I decided to take it upon myself to learn the language. Not only is my husband fluent in Croatian, but I want to at least be able to understand what everyone is saying around me while we are there. Hopefully, when we have kids, I will be able to speak to them in English, French and Croatian! The problem is learning the language is actual work! I am not sure if it's old age, or all this fat is getting to my brain, but its hard!

This blog will not be about anything specific really, just me, and my life. I will be candid, honest and open with whomever chooses to read this blog, and hopefully entertain you, all the while showing you a piece of my life.

Thanks for reading,

Danielle
