Finally...A Forum for ME

LovetoRun · 12-30-2005, 06:34 AM

My husband is an airline pilot, and has a few forums in which he participates. I am so excited to have found this forum! Finally, a place I can go to talk to others who understand the joy, and stress of being married to a pilot.

My name is Lisa and I live in Oviedo, Florida. I work as an instructional designer, and love my job! My hours are fairly flexible, which is really nice, especially when Brett is home. In my spare time, I love to run. I used to run 5K and 10K races in Orlando, but for now I am working on improving my speed and endurance on my own.

Brett and I are newlyweds...we were married on February 26. The first six months of our marriage were very stressful. Brett had just left his job of 6 1/2 years at a major airline, due to threats of furloughs, and took a job flying cargo. Definitely very different from the lifestyle in which we were accustomed (Two weeks on/Two weeks off, No contract, etc). After two months of training, and one month of flying, Brett was lucky to gain employment with an airline (Job fairs are awesome!!). Things are finally stable. We always say that since the first six months of our marriage were so stressful, we are going to extend our newlywed "status" an extra six months!!

Anyways, I just wanted to introduce myself. Looking forward to chatting with you all!!
