About

An about me page seems hard to do considering that I try (and fail, far too often) to stay as anonymous as possible on here. But here are a few things you should know about me.
         1.       I love photography. You wouldn’t know that from here since I won’t post pictures, but I have an ever growing Flickr stream and a separate photoblog. If you want a link let me know I’ll probably share.
         2.   I love sports. Mostly baseball but I’ll watch just about anything. My main passion for many years has been the Oakland Athletics, but I’ve been unable to watch games the past two seasons and that upsets me greatly.
          3.   I was a nanny for one family for more than five years. I was devastated when they moved. It didn’t help that their move came in the midst of my depression after my aunt died in July 2009. I get to live with them for the summer and could not be more thrilled. The kids are K and B - they are 7 and almost 11. We should have a ton of fun this summer, you likely can read about it here.
         4.   I am a dual citizen. If I would have gotten the darn certificate I applied for back in September I could likely be moving to Canada rather than Colorado. Alas, it didn’t happen.
        5.    I have a college degree in education. I would give just about anything to have my own classroom. I got my degree at the wrong point in time. Budget cuts have amounted to no jobs. I’m hoping something works out for the fall.
        6. I have two other blogs. The above mentioned photography one and a teaching one. I've only posted a handful of times on the teaching one. If It get a job? That'll change!
