Ahoy!

As a newly unemployed high school social studies teacher, I've decided I need something besides crossword puzzles to keep my brain from addling. I just recently relocated to sunny Florida to be with my fiancee, NavyGuy, while he's in training to become a naval flight officer (basically, that means he'll be "Goose" from Top Gun... except ideally without the ending Goose suffered!).

Aside from being a future Navy wife, I'm a voracious reader, movie fan, beginning scrapbooker, and champion ice cream eater (still working on including "fitness guru" to that list). My plan for this blog is to a) provide a productive outlet for my thoughts during the day, b) keep my family and friends updated on the new crazy life I've embarked upon, and c) to hopefully inform, provoke, influence, motivate, or entertain someone each day.

All aboard!
