When I set my mind to something I usually get it done.

I care about people and am learning how to help them with my course of studies in Health Education.

I successfully brought six humans into the world and they all still survive to this day.

I am the least judgmental person you will ever meet and everyone has a chance to get to know me if they choose to.

I am flexible and can get through any crisis the world throws at me.

I am fabulous because:

1. I am optimistic and always see the best in a situation. Any situation. I count my blessings even in the face of adversity.

2. I am a loving, caring person. I take care of my family members even though the kids are grownups and live far from us. I try to do the little things that bring a smile to my mom, who is in her 90's. I extend myself to those locally who need help.

3. I love to learn new things. RIght now I am enrolled in 2 writing classes to pursue my passion, and am starting to learn Spanish! I am an avid reader and try to study the Scriptures regularly.  Whether it is something this formal, or something like learning to make a new recipe....learning and extending my mind is very important to me. And I guess this includes learning about fitness, which is another fairly new interest area for me.

4. I am a "go and do" person. Not to say I "never" procrastinate, but when I see an opportunity, I take it! Don't wait for someday when I can immerse in a wonderful experience today!

5 I am organized. I love order in my home and work space and try to work to achieve that as much as possible. I'm always organizing something!

I am fabulous because:

I am very funny and witty and just a hell of a lot of fun to be around.

I am generous with my time and money.

I am the type of person that everyone knows they can turn to in a time of need.

I am not a shrinking violet--I am a strong spirited woman who will stand up for what I believe in, but you can also dress me up and take me out, so to speak. 

I believe I have overcome a lifetime of obesity and damn it, that is FABULOUS!! 

Thanks for asking!!

"I believe I have overcome a lifetime of obesity and damn it, that is FABULOUS!!"


Very powerful statement and SUPER FABULOUS!!!

I am smart.

I am strong.

I am beautiful.

I am a good friend.

I work hard and love helping everyone.  ( Police, Fire, Rescue dispatcher)

I am fabulous because

GOD made me and he does not make mistakes

I am supportive and nurtuing mother.

I am great help mate.

I have a hour glass figure.

I love others and myself naturely.

Hmmm... only five, huh?
Gonna be rough trying to narrow it down like that....

(Kidding, ok?)

Ok, let's go:


1. I'm brave.
I am not afraid of change, or failure, or making the wrong impression. REALLY large bugs, however...

2. I'm pretty good under pressure. I can buckle down, then buckle down tighter, and grit my way through a lot.

3. I like to think I have a good sense of humor. I also like to think I am secretly destined to rule all mankind.

4. I tend to look for action, solutions. My Myers-Briggs says that I'm ENTJ,  corresponding to the Rational Fieldmarshal type. When something doesn't seem to be working, I have to try to fix it. Can't help myself.

5. I think I'm pretty shrewd. I really am a very caring person, but I am not easily fooled.



Now whether or not that all adds up to "fabulous" I really couldn't say, but I see them as good qualities, and feel pretty confident about claiming them.

Fun question again, Nik!

 Nik, this is the awesomest thread ever! Ok, so I'll contribute to the poll
1. I find the learning opportunity in adversity
2. I am learning to love my body
3. I've rescued 3 "fur-babies" and given them a forever home
4. I make a difference in my clients' lives
5. I am a loyal friend 

 This is hard for me as I have never thought of myself as fabulous.

1. I am a good mom or as good as I can be.

2. I will do anything for anyone who needs it.

3. I love with all my soul

4. I am smart

5. Hubby says that I am the person you want on your side when you need someone to have your back. When I think someone is being wronged I speak up and stick to my guns.

1) I am a "good" person - stranded on the road? chances are that's me pulling up behind you. Have a flat tire, in the rain, on Christmas Eve, at 8pm? Call me, I'm better than the Michelin man. 
     I have picked up hitchhikers (they ride in the bed of the truck only) and hauled gas cans when I was too afraid of hauling the person.  Unfortunately I have to be careful because nuts are everywhere, but I have pushed many a car through intersections or pulled them out of beach sand with my truck.

2) I am a "loyal" person. A fiercely loyal person. You can say or do pretty much anything to me, but you awaken a sleeping giant when you mess with those I love.

3) I am sarcastic without being mean.  I love to make people laugh.

4)  I am dependable. If I say I will do it - consider it done. If I say I will be there at a certain time - set the clock by me.

5) I am honest.  Pretty much to a fault.  I expect the same from others, but never "payback" one untruth with another.  My friends, family and counselor know I live by the "brutal honesty" agreement - I'll tell you the truth and then we work through if it makes you angry. I expect the same from them.
