    Fairview Heights, about 30min east of St Louis :) Never been to Chicago,farthest north I've been is Quincy to visit family. I four wheel in Waterloo and work in O'Fallon, born in Belleville, raised in Shiloh, moved to Fairview Heights when I was 10. So basically metro east :)

    I was born in Belleville and lived in Shiloh when i was 2-4 y/o, then we moved to Decatur. My dad was stationed at Scott AFB back then 1960's. Did I say that? :)

    I am living in Edwardsville at the moment, well for the next few years till my youngest gets out of high school. She is 11 now in 6th grade. I am searching for someone local that wants to walk or join the ymca so I have someone to "answer to." Sometimes self motivation is really hard for me, but I know I could feel so much better if I got more exercise.

    Also if anyone works from their car, I do home health nursing, and has ideas how to increase calorie burn while sitting I would love to chat.

    I went to supplement superstore and had a diet recommended for me which includes eating 4 times a day and am having issues with getting the foods ingested at the appropriate times, due to being in the car all day. I would take any ideas on that front too. I really don't like eating cold food all the time which is what I get when I keep food safe in a cooler with nowhere to heat it up.

    Mud on tires? Sounds perfect... :-) I love four-wheeling... So, when I hear mud, my ears perk up...lol.

    MH and I live 2 1/2 hours SW of Chicago... and 1 1/2 hours North of Springfield. Although, I long to move to another state.

    It would be nice to make some new friends from the area... :-)
