Until about 2 or 3 days ago I had never read a blog and for some strange reason I have now decided to have a go myself! This I may add is not down to the quality of the blog I read but more of out curiosity. I am going to use this introductory blog to give you a background to my circumstances.
I have been married for seven years and in this time I have accrued apart from my lovely wife two children and a cat. My first child who I shall refer to as boy is 4 years old and my second child hereby refered to as girl is 1. Both of my kids are absolutely fantastic and being a parent is the best thing in life I have ever accomplished. They are also the hardest, most tiring, financially crippling, etc thing I have also accomplished. But to everyone out there who is a parent then I suppose you already know this.
Now by my own admission I am quite a laid back person, my wife would argue lazy, no thats unfair, she would argue that very strongly, but during my time as a parent there are several corners that I feel a man could cut in order to look like you are doing the right thing but actually you are letting other people do the work. I will update this with some pearls of my wisdom at a later date.
For work I am a sales rep for a manufacturer and I do enjoy my job, especially when things are going well and im selling some of our stuff. This does happen the majority of time but like everyone else a sales job is the most stressful job when things take a turn for the worse. I used to work in an office and I could never imagine going back to that environment although being on the road can sometimes be a lonel
As yet my job has not been affected by the slowdown in the economy or by the two words I hate most in the world.... credit and crunch. I hate these words more than the dreaded "its your turn to change her nappy". Nothing makes my selective deafness more effective than this.
Well thats enough for now - I will try to come back and write regular.
Bye for now.
