Well, this is my first go at my new blog. It feels a bit strange, yet somehow liberating to let it all "hang out", so to speak!
A bit about me: I am a young 42, originally from Toronto, Canada (the greatest city in the world IMHO!) but now living in Perth, Australia for the past 10 years. Married to a sandgroper (aka a Western Australian, hence the relocation here) and the proud mummy to 3 gorgeous kids. A civil engineer by training, I specialise in traffic planning and transport engineering as senior engineer in a local Perth boutique consulting firm. Prior to that I worked for the State Government for nearly 7 years and BC (Before Children) travelled all around Australia as a senior national transport research organisation.
Jeremy is nearly 5, a sweet-natured, sometime overly sensitive little boy who adores his little sister. He is currently attending kindergarten and will be going to full-time school in 2007. Toby is a full on explosion of life at the age of 3 1/2 and ready for anything. Miranda is The Princess of the household and fully aware of that title at the ripe old age of 19 months.
The Spouse works in the north-west of Western Australia (read: COMPLETE BOONDOCKS) and is on a 3 on/1 off roster, although it feels most of the time like ON.....so I am basically a single mom 3/4 of the time.
Off to eat ice cream and watch crap telly (2 of my favourite pasttimes, more on that tomorrow).
Later,
