So I'm tired of Xanga and decided to try something new.
I guess this is it.
A little about me to start: I live in the midtown Atlanta area with my husband Ethan. We just celebrated our second anniversary, and it just gets better. So many cynical people told (and still tell us) that romance dies over time. I haven't seen that occur with us... if anything, we're even
more romantic than when we were first married and I know that my love for Ethan grows deeper every day.
We have a cool apartment in the Virginia Highlands but are about to say goodbye to it since we are under contract for a new loft which is still under construction. God only knows when we will actually close, but we're hoping for Octoberish. We started packing our apartment already, so it's a bit strange sometimes to come home from work and see stacks of boxes everywhere. I just remind myself that it is only temporary and that we will soon be moved and everything in its proper place.
I work as a governess and care for three wonderful boys. I
honestly could not ask for a better job or working situation. A governess is basically a nanny, but one step up that career ladder. I never thought that I would become a career governess when I first started out in this field but it is looking like that's what will happen. I have no complaints.... my salary is higher than that of a teacher (which is what my degree is) and my job has zero stress. No paperwork or whiny parents who think their kids deserve an A for every test they take. Works for me. Whenever I talk about my job here, I won't be mentioning specific details about my boys or their parents because I want to respect their privacy as a family. With Blogger, it doesn't seem like you can restrict who views your page... so that's just the way it will have to be! Ethan works for the City of Atlanta as an Atlanta Police Officer. No comments please... I cannot tell you how sick I am of people making comments about MY bravery in being married to him.
Please. I'm not the one who goes to work every day knowing full well my life is on the line. I honestly do not worry about Ethan when he's at work. I feel the same way about Ethan's work as a person married to a 9 to 5'er would view that person's work.... it's a job. I don't think that being an officer defines who my husband is. You would never know that's what he did if you didn't see him in uniform. We have an extremely normal existence in the world other than being a lot more suspicious of others than most.
So that's my little introduction. If you stopped by and read this, please leave a comment. I love meeting new people and reading their blogs.... and I reciprocate in the commenting department.
