GTKY - What do you do?

I have really enjoyed being on this board lately, there is a lot of smart ladies and a lot of different view points. I've learned quite a bit.  Smile

I haven't seen a GTKY on here recently, so here goes!

What do you/DH do for work?

  • I am a massage therapist. I do chair massage at the airport, mostly and a little bit of table massage. I also do nails about 15 hours a week. 

    DH works in healthcare administration for a company that does smoking cessation programs. He handles medication dispensing for their corporate accounts. He is planning to get his personal trainer certification and also become a certified nutritionist over the next couple of years. I am really proud of him because even though he is almost completely blind he does not let it hold him back at all. It really makes me grateful for him after having a couple of able bodied exes who always had an excuse for not being able to find a job. Sigh. 

  • Good idea :)

    Me: Lab assistant at a big university

    DH: Just starting his first accounting gig next Monday. We're very excited. Yay for more $!
