About me

Gender Female

Occupation Reading Teacher (Middle School)
Location Florida, United States
Introduction I'm a 37 year old mom, wife, daughter, sister, and teacher. My DH (darling/dear husband) and I met in college and we've been married 13 years. Our daughter is 7...and I'd like to have at least 1 more child someday. (Preferably sooner than later.) After obtaining a social work degree in '98, I worked as a case manager and then as a children's therapist for nearly 6 years. I then decided to make a career change. This is my 9th year teaching and my 6th year teaching middle school reading. I enjoy the reading curriculum and love that I am able to be a "stay-at-home-mom" a few months a year. I am also a Florida resident season pass holder for Disney World and LOVE to visit the WDW Resorts a few times each year. Thus, I've added a Disney-related blog roster of the blogs I frequent. :)

When you open your eyes underwater, do you ever worry that you'll drown?

(To those who don't use blogspot, you can answer a "random question" as part of your profile. ) No, but I do worry that I won't be able to drive home if one of my contact lenses falls out.
