Introduction Text My name is Sandy and I live in N. California. I have 5 children (3 my own and 2 step) and 1 grandson. I have home-schooled them all at some point or another. I am currently home-schooling my step-son, working full-time as a Special Education Teacher, and going to school 1-2 nights a week to clear my credentials and complete my Masters in Special Education. Wow--it is hard to believe that I have been on SparkPeople for a year now---and what a year! Many new things have happened this year: *I have lost a total of 36 pounds since starting. *I found a new hobby, Scrapbooking, that I am addicted too *I finally have a FT teaching position at a school I LOVE! I have been diagnosed with many allergies, asthma (causes chronic sinus and bronchial infections), acid reflux, Non-Specific Esophageal Motility Disorder (NSEMD), osteoporosis, Planters Fasciitis, Hypothyroidism, IBS, and Fibromyalgia. I have my good days and bad.

I am trying to get a light exercise program going consistently. Unfortunately, my Fibromyalgia makes that easier said than done. I am also working on lowering my calories. Chocolate and ice cream are my weaknesses. I have found an alternate to ice cream that is lower in calories...Gelato.

I am from Livermore, CA. I have 3 grown children of my own and 2 step-children (one living with us. I am happily married (finally). I am a 3rd grade Special Education teacher, home-school mom, and full-time student...working on my special education credential and masters.

I love anything Disney...my favorite is Pooh and Friends, but not the new show on Disney. I collect stuffed animals and Disney pins. I also love my new hobby: Scrapbooking
