Hi, I'm Cindy, and am currently 43 years old.  I've been overweight since I was about 8, but started eating for reasons other than hunger when I was 5 or 6.  I've been the biggest (not the tallest, since I'm just over 5'3" tall) person in most family/friend/school/work groups I've been part of since my early teens, and I'm really ready to blend in physically.   So, after lots of prayer and consideration, I made the decision to have Lap-Band surgery, which I'm having 6/7/07.  This is the beginning of my new life, I guess.

You could say I'm a pretty emotional person--it's okay, go ahead, everyone says it.  I love talking with others about our feelings, but really, I'll talk with you about nearly anything!  Love to chat with people, period. 

I'm a race fan.  Sprint cars most of all, but Nascar keeps me from getting bored, and I've become quite a fan of that as well.  For my Nascar buddies, Jeff Burton and his brother Ward are my favorite drivers, because they are such nice guys--gentlemen, regardless of the situation.  I respect good sportsmanship above most all other  traits, because it requires honesty, integrity, and true character, so it's no wonder the Burton brothers have such a special place in my heart. 

Now, as to sprint car drivers, well, I love most of them!  I just love to watch them run!  Love the smell, the sight, the sound, the feel of the thunder of engines in my chest when they all go by together--yeah, I'm a sprint car junkie!  Steve Kinser is the king, but I'm a fan of them all,  Sprint cars bring me joy.

Oh, and speaking of joy, my litle puppy Bailey brings me joy also.  She's my ten and a half month old long-haired mini dachshund (black and tan), and she's a doll.  Stubborn?  Sure.  Tears up my papers when I leave them unattended and puppy-reachable?  Well, yeah, that too.  But it doesn't matter!  She's my baby, and I love her!  Oh, and she's my walking partner too!  Therapeutic, and fun!  What could be better?

Oh, and can you tell I love writing too?
