Well, who said woman can't also have a mid life crises?
What else could have prompted me to make the decision to loose 15kg's and then as if that is not bad enough decide to climb Mt Kilimanjaro for the thin photo!

Every good intention should have a before and after photograph so here is the "fat photo" sorry guys - I will save the full body shot for after the diet. Check back in January 2007 to see if I made it or not.

I will be trekking with a group of guys and girls from 3rd Pinelands Scout troup. Hence the URL for the blog. I am certain a few photo's of the other guys will get posted during our training half year. My husband Mark will be doing all the moral support and baby sitting needed to allow a working mom the luxury of all the time off from maternal duties to do the required training. Thanks my love.

O.K so now you have worked out that I am married, have a daughter and am in the process of a mid-life crises. That's enough about me. My daughter Sarah is in grade 1 at Kirstenhof primary school in Cape Town and is the coolest kid a mom could hope for. Mark and I have been married for 13 years this year and how he puts up will all my idiosyncrasies I have yet to find out. Don't know what I would do without him really.
