A little bit about ME!

Since you're reading this blog, I figure you must want to know a little bit about me. Why else would you be here, right?

I'm in my early 30s. I have 2 children, and I've been married for going on 9 years. I currently live in Michigan, which is beautiful in the summer time up really sucks in the winter, but I don't know how much longer I'm planning on sticking around.

My husband and I both grew up here, you see, and this is where our parents are. However, we lived in Illinois for several years, and we found that we did much better as a family when we lived AWAY from the REST of our family. That, and the economy here is much worse than anywhere else in the country, and the job market sucks. So, it's time to move on.

While my husband and I are in complete agreement that it is, in fact, time to move on, and we've even agreed (without much discussion as we always seem to be on the same page) where we want to move on TOO, the guilt I'm anticipating receiving from my mother (Catholic, natch) makes me reluctant. This is just one of the many, many things I'm struggling with right now. Hence, the blog!

So, this is a place for me to talk out all the things I'm struggling with. I'm slightly neurotic, and since I can't vent to my friends right now (most of them are against me moving, and nobody takes my neurosis too seriously), I need a place to talk it out. Again, hence the blog.

If you're reading this, thanks- it means maybe I AM more interesting than I take myself to be. Drop me an email and let me know what you think! Thanks, and look for more about me and my many neurotic ramblings soon.
