has anyone had the talk where they had to explain to their child why they are a provider and what that means?  how about the rest of the family (brothers, sister, parents)

I'm not trying to put you on the spot, but why do you feel the need to tell anyone? Did someone discover your site, online advertisements or personal files? If no one knows, try keeping it that way. When you are ready to retire, it will be your secret.  

Good luck!

Alex, I'm not sure why you think the OP is a provider.  I think "he" is just curious.  Lots of guys are overly fascinated with providers and want details of their lives that are not really appropriate to be shared.
PS: Love your pictures.  Let me know if you come to the NY area.

i agree..i love those pics too..hopefully i can talk Alex into coming to Chicago..you NYC dudes have all the fun..

My error! I need to stop multitasking. I can't answer the OP's question since I'm not a mom or have any family to worry about. Its me against the world.

Thanks for the compliment(s). I'll be in NY this fall. ;

As far as kiddo is concerned, shes not curious enough to want to know.  The little unexplained things, like how I can manage to lose my keys the second I walk in the door, and why the remote ended up in the freezer are pretty much enough for her to decide she doesnt want to know how or why I do things.  I always defend myself by saying theres a method to my madness..and she always comes back with...more madness than method! LoL  

As for the rest of my family, they are not obligated to me, nor I to them and we respect each others privacy..its a nice lil arrangement.

Can we get a HALLELUJAH for the Lady Nicole?!!!

Have a "girl crush" on Ms. Lombardi  too.  Sometimes wish I was Bi-Curious. If I ever grow up(not likely, at this stage), I would like to be the Lady A.L.!

Oh yeah, dyin' to be as cool as rrasha too!  

Humbled, by so many spectacular women here.

I was suppose to move to LA in 2001. I was offered a job. Instead, I accepted a position in NYC.

Stay sweet, have fun in this industry, don't forget to plan for the future and never burn any bridges.  

Kindest regards,

Alexandria

I am compelled to share a comment I wrote to someone, regarding my respect and admiration for you, Ms. Rasha.

"Never known anyone who could write so intelligently, yet remarkably witty, using so few words. Extraordinary!"

The quote below, only re-inforces my opinion. I learned the hard way to stop taking a big swig of my Diet Coke, right before clicking on your posts, so keep 'em coming PLEASE!
