>--Sneaks In Quietly due to a bad habit of showing up late!--<

Hello everyone! Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself as it seems that is what I am supposed to do!

Name's Mike and I am from VA. I have been married to my wonderful wife for 5.5 years now. I am 30 years old, have three kids - 2 boys 10 and 11, and 1 little girl - 2 (who is definately a spoiled daddy's girl - which means, of course, I am doing my job!:p )

I live in the beautiful foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in VA. I recently got laid off of my sales consulting job because the company is going under, but do some network consulting and website design to get me by as I am frantically jockying for position among the thousands of others in my area looking for work. To top that off - my wife just got laid off from her job, so we are not in the best spot! Anyhow, enough of that..

I (with a friend of mine) own a motorcycle forum online, called Motorcyclists United. It brings my two biggest hobbies together - web design/technology and motorcycles.

I am the local coach for our small rural town's recreation association (sometimes baseball, sometimes soccer, depending on what my boys want to play each season! - currently it is soccer and I LOVE coaching).

There is so much more, but I will keep it short, about the only other thing to say is that I am a Senior at Liberty University (this is my second go round) in the Management Information Systems Bachelors program. I have a lot on my plate and can candidly say I am having a bit of a hard time keeping up, but I suppose I will!

Good to be here, looks like there are some cool and friendly people here!

Hi SM and welcome to the forums. :) What are your goals you want to achieve? Lose weight? Gain? or just work on those muscles? I wish you luck in reaching whatever your goal is and will cross my fingers you and your wife both get back into the work world very soon! :)
 
Hey! Thanks for the welcome. I have quite a few goals, with the first being just to get back into some normal level of shape. Rather than retype all the info, I posted a separate thread here...okay, well I cannot post the link (even though it is a link to this forum!) - so it is in the Wellness Board with the title of WAAAY Out of shape - where to start?

This will let you know where my mind is at right now. Thanks!

Mike
