About me

Well, I am a teacher of special education kids (adapted physical education they call it here in the USA) I work 180 days, but get get paid a nicely sum of money on a 12 month contract (you cannot beat the benefits plan!)In my off time, my partner and I keep up with the maintance of a 1.65 acre home west of Chicago, near the Fox river. It is quite a task, but we seem to get it done, with not too many "discussions". Have been in a committed relationship for 12 years.
