Just alittle free time!
I actually don't blog as much as I thought I would - I have never been much of a writer.  In high school and college I truly hated all my English classes.  My favorite subjects were of course Math and Science.  And they still are! I started my college education in Nursing.  But do to family problems I had to drop out after the first year.  Forced to make a living on my own I went to medical assistant school and started working for Doctors.  After several years of being so poor I realized that I must get my degree.  So I would work from 7 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. then go onto evening classes.  It was a very difficult time for me in many ways but I knew I must keep going.  At the rate I was going it would take me about 10 years to get my degree.  Time was going to pass anyway so I just going.  I met my future husband when I was 24 years old.  After a long distance relationship for over a year I moved from Arizona to St. Louis, MO.  I continued on my current track working and going to school.  My husband had a dream to move to North Carolina and after being together for over 3 years he finally landed the job of his dreams in Raleigh/Durham.  So we moved to NC and we were married a few months later.  Now after almost 8 years of going to school part-time I was able to finish my degree at North Carolina State in Accounting.   I ended up working in the corporate world for over 20 years but what is funny after all that hard work- I am now doing what I really love- creating, sewing and being my own boss !!!!!!
