Carol's Story

Great jobs I've had: Secretary to the Supt. of Schools, Whitehouse ISD; Office Mgr. for a CPA firm In Lonview; Current job at a construction co. in Sugar Land; self-employed esthetician/facialist and massage therapist in Richmond, TX (current) Interesting jobs: Dept. of the Army, Ft. Meade, MD, Surgeon General's Office, Personnel Procurement (We drafted doctors into the Army during the Viet Nam War.); Office mgr. for my husband's co., an engineering firm specializing in design and construction of rice processing plants here and abroad - (My husband passed away in 2002.) Best job: Raising my two sons and being their mom has to be the best job I have ever had or will have. My older son is a ninth grade algebra teacher in Longview. My younger son graduated from Bauer Business School at U of H and works in Dallas for a medical staffing firm. They both have been the joy of my life. Places I've been: Mexico, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Germany, Italian Alps, Italy, Spain, Madeira , France, Corsica, Bahamas, CA, AZ, NV, AR, MD, NY, NC, VA, AL, GA, and NJ Being in Paris on the Champs-Elysees on my birthday (7/27/2003) when Lance Armstrong won his fifth le Tour de France and seeing the Texas and American flags flying high was the most exciting trip to say the least. The most moving place I've visited was the concentration camp in Dachau, Germany. ...Expand for more
Nothing I'd ever seen on the History Channel could compare with what I felt as I stood in the place where so many people suffered and died. The emotion was overwhelming. Great adventures: Mountain and rock climbing in CO, parasailing in Acapulco, climbing a 40 ft. pole and jumping off to catch my brass ring, sightseeing the island of Kauai in a helicopter All of those things were supposed to help me overcome my fear of heights (or so I thought). None of them worked. Done with that. Education: Well, I have to say Mrs. Gaiser's VOE class and every other business related class at JT prepared me for employment as a secretary. Since then, I have taken several classes in more interesting things. I managed to pass exams and be rewarded with licenses in the following: real estate, insurance, massage therapy, and esthetics. I took basic and advanced black and white photography, basic and advanced color photography, and floral design classes at TJC. The only thing I received for those classes was a 4.0 GPA (which is still on record.) I am currently taking dance classes which will help me to continue to dance my way though life. Since most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be, I choose to be happy and have a great time as long as I am able - God willing, and of course, if the creeks don't rise. Just thought I'd throw in a little humor.
