Introduction

Wow, I did it. I started a blog. I have no clue what my intentions are really and what this will even turn into. Mostly just posting my thoughts and feelings.

My name is Marcey and I am 34 years old. I titled this blog "Live and Learn". Kind of clinche', I know, but so much about my life is learning to live and living to learn. I am a "knowledge" freak. I love school. Do not have a college education but if I was able, I'm sure I'd be one of those "professional" students. To this point all I've managed is a certification in medical office administration and transcription from a business school but it sure was fun getting it.

I also enjoy collecting items. One of my biggest is bags. Bags of any kind. Purses, book bags, cosmetic bags. A couple of other things I collect are teapots, tea cups, and porcelain dolls. I recently started in on Barbie dolls too.

If I were asked to describe myself, I think it would be accurate to say that I am shy, verbally challenged, but considerate and caring. I am friendly but reserved. I'm not a confident person but I admire confident people. I like people but am uncomfortable around them. I have room to grow that's for sure.

My family is very important to me. My boys are amazing young men and I thank God he gave them to me. My little angel girl is a miracle (that'll have to be another post) and she brings such light to my life. I have been very blessed.

My greatest struggle right now, well, there are many, but one that I am really worried about right now is that I am not healthy. I weigh too much. I don't know how it got this bad. I have got to lose some weight. A lot of weight... And finding the motivation to do it is really hard. There are just so many things that need my time and attention. (((sigh)))

My life is ever changing lately or maybe it's not really my life that has changed so much but the way I feel about my life. Here's where I say..."Good bye for now".

Living and Learning,
Marcey
