About Me

My name is Laura.  I was born and raised in the Kansas City area.  I am part of a huge Irish, Catholic family and love every moment of it.  I graduated from Kansas State University in 2006 with a Bachelors in Social Work, where I met my husband.  We married in October 2008.  I also graduated from the University of Kansas with a Masters in Social Welfare.  I am a social worker through and through; I doubt there is any other profession I will enjoy as much as social work.  I created this blog in an effort to obtain and maintain my health living and weight loss goals.  I appreciate any constructive feedback!
