My Silhouette

You know those nights where you lay in bed wide awake just wishing your brain would stop running a million miles a second and you think to yourself, 'Tahnee if you could just focus on breathing maybe you can get some sleep..inhale...exhale...inhale...exhale, find your inner chi woman'. Yep that was me last night! In the midst of my sleep deprivation and the million ideas I had flooding my mind (one of them being to write a novel) I decided that it was about time (and more logical) to start a blog. So at 4:00am I rolled out of bed and begin my journey of blogging, I had no idea what I was getting myself into! I wasn't sure what I was going to "blog" about much less how to design one. And then comes the problem of naming yourself, oh boy!. Before you know it, its 5 hours later and I am just now starting write. Since I am new to this I think its best to start with the basics and get to know one another, like a first date :)......so here it goes.......

My name is Tahnee, I am married to my wonderful hubby, David, who is my rock, my soul-mate, and my best friend.  Our story is that of a real fairytale, he is my Prince Charming!..literally castle and all ;)... David and I met when I decided to take an internship at Walt Disney World and move halfway across country. It was a dream job that I always wanted, but never really knew I could have until the opportunity fell on my lap. When we met I wouldn't say it was love at first sight, according to him it was, but I think we got some wires crossed and he had a funny way of showing it. I tried every way possible to avoid him and his rude remarks and gestures, obviously I was not successful, but for that I am thankful! Once we were on the same page, it was instantaneous and I didn't know how I could ever live without him, the only problem was that I had to go back to Texas after my internship so that I could finish College. Long distance to me wasn't an option, but he somehow convinced me that it would work...and lookey there he was right! (probably the only time he will be, hehe jk) After many years of flying back and forth and late night phone calls, I move to Florida to continue my career with the Mouse and be with the love of my life.

 Fast forward to today, we have only been married 2 years now come November, but time sure does seem to fly by! I am a newly housewife who decided, and convinced my hubby, to up and leave a fortune 500 company with a really great job to move back home to Texas (crazy, right? yeah I am beginning to think that myself). All my life I had these dreams of moving to a big city, working for a major corporation, and slowly taking over the World one job at a time. I was well on my way to becoming King, I mean Queen of the World, well sort of...I believe I would have gotten there one day. Then out of nowhere on one of those sleepless nights like I told you about before, I decided that it was imperative that my hubby and I move back to Texas to be closer to our Family. I told him that 'Family is the most important aspect of life and if we were going to start one of our own then we needed the support and love of ours. ' It was hard for us both to leave the only job that we ever really knew to move to a town where we weren't sure what to do. Luckily David found a job and is able to support the two of us while I figure out my life. But see, here is my problem...now that I am sitting at home I have been contemplating changing my career and going back to school for something that I love (which would include more debt), or should I just get back out in the corporate world and make that money honey?!? Oh the decisions of an adult...again, who said growing up was fun, and why were we in such a hurry to do so? It is with these questions that I will leave for now....
