Toni's Story
Life
IN 87 I PACKED UP AND HIT THE ROAD WITH MY DAUGHTER ALISHA 2 AND JESSICA 6 MONTHS OLD. (NOW 23 AND 21) WOW... ANYWAYS I HIT THE OPEN ROAD TO WHAT SEEMED LIKE A WHOLE NEW WORLD. IT WAS HARD TO LEAVE BEHIND MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY BUT I KNEW I NEEDED A CHANGE AND I WAS GOING NO WHERE IN NEWARK,OHIO. I ENDED UP IN MIAMI, FL.. NOW TALK ABOUT A WHOLE NEW WAY OF LIFE WHEN ALL YOU HAVE KNOWN IS A SMALL TOWN. AND I HAD NEVER SEEN SO MANY DIFFERENT NATIONALITIES. I ACTUALLY FIT RIGHT IN. FOR THE MOST PART I WAS ALWAYS ASKED IF I WAS CUBAN,COLUMBIAN OR HALF BLACK. I'D JUST ROLL WITH IT. THE ONE THING I LEARNED REAL FAST WAS IF I RAN MY MOUTH THERE LIKE I DID BACK HOME I'D GET SHOT. HARD HABIT TO BREAK, STILL GETS ME IN TROUBLE. MIAMI WAS BEAUTIFUL. EVERYTHING AND MORE I HAD EVER DREAMED OFF. I HAD 2 MORE CHILDREN THERE. I WENT THRU HURRICANE ANDREW AND SURVIVED TO TELL ABOUT I...Expand for more
T. I STILL THANK GOD TODAY FOR NOT LETTING HARM COME TO US. WE LOST EVERYTHING. AND I MEAN EVERYTHING. THE ONLY THING LEFT WAS THE WALLS AND ROOF OF THE BATHROOM WE WERE HUDDLED IN FOR WHAT FELT LIKE FOREVER. AFTERWARDS IT WAS WILD. BUT PEOPLE PULLED TOGETHER AND DID WHAT WE HAD TO DO TO SURVIVE UNTIL INSURANCE CHECKS CAME. I STAYED THERE ABOUT 2 YEARS BUT MOVE UP TO FT. LAUDERDALE. THEN DECIDED WE WERE GOING TO HIT THE WEST COAST. MY HUSBAND AT THAT TIME WAS IN THE COAST GUARD AND WE TRANSFERED TO OR. THEN DOWN TO CALI. I HAVE BEEN IN CA. FOR 12 YEARS AND HAD MY 5TH AND LAST CHILD HERE. I'M DIVORCED BUT STILL VERY CLOSE TO MY EX. THE LIL ONEZ ARENT SO LIL ANYMORE. I HAVE 1 GRANDDAUGHTER THAT IS 2 AND ANOTHER ON THE WAY. MY TEENAGERS KEEP ME BUSY AND YOUNG AT HEART. MY LIFE SURROUNDS MY KIDZ AND ALL THERE FRIENDZ. EVENTUALLY I WOULD LIKE TO COME BACK TO THE EAST COAST.
