Beth's Story

Life Where has the time gone? I have been married since 1988 to a wonderful man named Rick. Although I never really dated in school, I know what I wanted when I saw it. We went on our first date 5 weeks after we met, we were engaged 6 weeks later and married 6 months after that in October 1988. Rick was in the Air Force and stationed at Hampton. We have lived in Hampton, Las Vegas, and Biloxi, Mississippi. (That house is now gone thanks to Katrina) Rick had numerous oversea tours. After serving 10 years actively in the Air Force and 3 years in reserves, Rick was released on disability, and we settled in his home state of West Virginia in 1997. It is a great place to raise the kids, and the countryside is beautiful. We constantly go on family outings to take pictures. We have two beautiful, smart girls. Samantha was born in 1991 and Stephanie was born in 1993. Stephanie is 5'11" and still growing. Both are involved in school band (Samantha plays trumpet and Stephanie plays flute) Both are on the honor roll students. Both girls stay active in attend church and have managed to stay out of any major trouble so far. (Moms have a right to brag, don't they?) Although, boys are now hanging around the house and I don't know if I am ready for that. :) My house is the place where the kids ...Expand for more
come and hang out and play video games, eat all of my food, blast the music etc. I really don't care as long as the kids are fairly well behaved. I have worked in banking off and on for many years. I have most recently worked as an assistant librarian. I graduated community college with my accounting and management degree and a 4.0 gpa. I curretnly operate a small business from home selling cross stitch leaflets on Ebay. I try to be home for my family as much as possible. We currently have two bassett hounds...Daisy and Drifter, and a spoiled cat, 2 guinea pigs, and the resident dust bunnies that always live under the furniture. I love to stay on the computer and I do very detailed counted cross stitch pictures to help keep what sanity I have left. That's about it. I imagine that my life may seem rather boring to many of you but I am settled and very happy. Other than growing up a lot over the years, I haven't changed much. Although I am carrying a few extra pounds, you would probably still recognize me if I were walking at the mall. (Why is it that I can never recognize or see anyone I know when I go home for a visit??) I like things laid back and running on an even keel with as little drama as possible. I would love to hear what is going on with the rest of you.
