About Me

tweetybrrd
I was born June 18th, 1961 on Father's Day to Earl & Martha Sibbald. Was raised in the township of Wainfleet where my parents still live in the house my father built. I have 1 younger brother. I graduated Port Colborne High School in 1978 and went on to Sheridan college where I studied animated cartooning. Do to major problem with my knees and many surgeries, I never completed my college education at Sheridan. I took piano lessons when I was younger and even won a Gold Medal in the Niagara Falls Kawanis Music Festival. I went on to learn how to play many instruments including, baritone sax, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar and bit of the banjo. I went on the road with a band from Oshawa for 3 years, playing all over Ontario before moving back to Niagara, living in Welland and played bass guitar in a few local bands for about 15 years. I Love to draw & paint. I am self taught in crocheting and I love all kinds of crafty things to do.

Hello Everyone

It has been a while since I have posted anything here. I am still on track with my weight loss, just busy and haven't been writing anything.

This week's WI was a disappointment for me, being up +.6 and being so good over the Easter holiday (almost makes me wish I had indulged a bit in some Easter goodies) but I didn't and the scale still wants me heavier. Oh well. Hopefully next WI will be much better. I am getting so close to the 90 pounds lost mark and seems like my body just doesn't want to let any fat go! LMAO

We are gearing up for a move in the very near future. I am not looking forward to it and hopefully it will be the last time. I hate moving and it has been 10 years since the last one but this one is necessary. It will put me much closer to my parents so I will get to seem them more often. It will also put me back in the city where I attended high school and spent a great deal of time in my teens and 20's. A blast back to the past!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will try to me more diligent with my posting.
