New Start

I have decided to start a new blog.  Now that I am getting used to the idea of this, I have decided to protect myself and my family.  I am going to be a teacher very soon, and need to be careful about pasted my private life all over the internet.  I obviously don't want to take any chances.

So, starting new and fresh.  I have started a new life.  I lived in Texas for 28 years, then moved with my husband, who I will refer to as: The Chief; and my son, who I will refer to as: Little Man.  We moved from Texas to Connecticut.  The Chief got a job promotion, which forced us to make the big move.

Going from Texas to Connecticut has been quite a life-changing experience.  I only had a handful of friends in Texas (I am not one of those people who has this HUGE circle of friends).  I miss my friends dearly.  I have a sister that I also left behind.  When you grow up with someone everyday...it is tough walking away.  I have learned quickly that I took relationships for granted.

On the bright side...moving across the country with The Chief has only improved our relationship.  He went from being out of town Monday through Thursday, to being home every night.  I know woman who would pay big bucks to have their husbands out of the house four days a week.  It worked for us.  I was naturally worried about how him being home every night was going to change the dynamics of our relationship.  I can honestly say, it has made our relationship stronger.  We have grown so close.  I can't wait to see him every night.  I love that I am not "single parenting" the Little Man anymore.  I feel like we have a normal family.  It has been wonderful.  I hope I am not "tooting my horn" too quickly :)

So this blog is going to be my thoughts, my feelings, my vents, and my thoughts on some very sticky situations.  For the most part, this will be clean.  My name or title of my blog is Lady in Pink.  I chose this, because Pink is my favorite color.  I feel that the world can't function without the color pink.  Pink means we are breathing.  In order for me to live, laugh, and love...I must breathe.  Pink is my color.
