hey rachel! do you know if something is wrong with the chat room today? i can't get on!! :-)~

Hey ya'll! My name is Mary, but I am better known as Mommy or "The Cake Lady"! I make professional wedding cakes..well, any occasion really! I just got my lapband on 10-01-2008. I started out at 243 pounds, 5'7" tall. I have high blood pressure and Hypothyroidism. My Dr. is Dr. Scott Bovard, (SUCH a cutie) from Wake Forest North Carolina. I found him on the internet. The staff in his practice are super nice and I love them! They are more like good friends than just receptionists. Cassie is the best! My husband is Eric, a Marine. Although he is no longer active duty (Thank you God...) the lifestyle remains. You know what they say, Semper Fi! Eric still gets the same haircut, he likes things in their place and is very prompt and expects greatness from everything, and it is hard for him to accept any thing less! We have been married since January 04, 2005. Together we have two babies, Benjamin (2) and Katelyn (1). I have a daughter from my first marriage, Avery (6) and he has a daughter Gabrielle (6) from before I met him. Literally, a one night stand...he met a girl one night at a bar when he was in the Marine Corps and well...one thing lead to another, never saw her again until she told him she had his child! DNA proved it ...such luck! Gabi lives with her mother in Maine, it is so pretty up there! We live in Virginia. Emporia Virginia is so small. But, it's home! I grew up here for the most part, I did go to high school in CA. My father lives there. But, I moved back here after school and joined the Navy (where I met my first husband). After my divorce from my first husband, I came back to Emporia and lived with my mom. Then, when I met Eric we moved to Louisiana, then Kentucky (where Eric is from) and then again back here to Emporia. My mother died in 2006, and I inherited her house here. It's very nice, we just built a new screened porch and laundry room. Well, anywho....enough about me!
