Hi there. I’d like to reintroduce myself to the blogosphere. I am a Senator’s Wife. I have two children and they keep my busy. I volunteer during my free time for this non-profit organization. I used to enjoy blogging about politics and life and some of what I see being married to a public servant. But life is hectic and busy and sometimes I just don’t like telling the world what it’s actually like in the fish bowl. Politics is about perception and things aren’t always what they seem.
However, 2012 is an election year and I am glued to the tube when it comes to following this stuff. Maybe it’s because football season is over? Maybe it is because I have started running in the wee hours of the morning and find myself following the political news cycle a little more closely. Running on a treadmill is a dangerous thing unless you are completely sidetracked and entertained by exciting television. Trust me on this one. I am not a runner, nor have I EVER been…until now. After 40, those calories don’t go away like they used to….
Anyway… maybe because I have taken up running, or maybe because I really do have a passion for politics, or more likely because my Senator is term limited and I won’t worry so much about what I say being used against him in the political arena. I am getting ready to take the protective shield down and tell you what its like from the inside because this is my story.
Thanks for letting me share that with you today – the Senator’s Wife
The Senator's Wife 
Thank you for starting your blog and I look forward to hearing what is on your mind. I am a Florida resident, father of 2 daughters and an avid political participant. I would be interested in hearing what it is like to be a part of a political family and how the view is different from the inside. I think it is sad that you had to censor yourself until your husband hit his term limit, but I understand the necessity.
I pray that your family finds prosperity in your next adventure.
Thanks Florida Patriot! My Senator has a few years left to serve, but it wasn’t until he was re-elected to that last term when I felt I could really call it like I see it! Now, it is just plain fun!
