Carol's Story
I was so insecure, poor, overworked at home my academic life suffered. I would pile on the makeup after I left home for school, I looked like a clown.
I married Tommy Weldy June 3,1961, enrolled in JCJC the following year. Became pregnant, at that time u could not attend school if u were P. therefore I left school. Gave birth to Anthony Weldy June 4, 1962. Then we had 2 more children Sherrie Lynn in 1965, Timothy 1966. Divorced, worked 2 jobs, my high school sweetheart abandoned us. It was hard but got them raised.
Fast forward I am now married to a wonderful man we have 3 grandchildren. We have 2 stores in Meridian MS. Tobacco World of Meridian. Even with taxes being raised 3 times & tobacco co's raising prices twice this year we still have very succes...Expand for more
sful businesses. I quit keeping books etc. so finally in the last 6 months I achieved freedom. We am taking our grandchildren on a Caribbean cruise spring break. We have been on 3 and our next one is going to be Alaska.
My husband and I have remodeled 2 housed and built 2 doing most of the work ourselves. This is the last one, we designed subbed the framing, brick, plaster and carpet out, did the rest ourselves. Lucked up and purchased 4 waterfront lots 20 miles outside Meridian. I plan to live here until the Lord calls me home.
I always wanted to be a Clerical worker when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a o k idea. As it turns out, they were right.
I was one of the first to be trained to operate computers. I became a commercial artist.
