Yikes, this could be looooong! Let's see, had my daughter, Dayna, in January 1983. Stayed in Canon for a couple of years, went to Pueblo College of Business for accounting. Then ALL of my family moved back to OK. Since I wanted my daughter to have a great relationship with her grandparents, I moved back there too :( I hated to leave Canon, but with no family there whatsoever, it seemed like the right thing to do at the time. Moved to Muskogee, OK (yep, just like in the song!) Met & married my 1st husband. Stayed in Muskogee for several years, ran a video store, did the accounting etc. Moved to Tulsa for a short time and was the Asst Manager of an apartment complex. Had a son, Matthew, who thank goodness had my dark eyes and hair! (My daughter looks just like her Dad, with blue eyes and light hair). Moved back to Muskogee and worked for a man that had his hands in just about everything. He taught me more about accounting (especially the creative kind!) than any school had. I ran a mini storage facility, was an agent for US Cellular and did the accounting and payroll for 5 other businesses that he had. All for the bargain price of $6.50 per hour! LOL First hubby felt he needed to clear his conscience (or it could have been the cocaine!!!) and told me that he had messed around on me several times, at least once being with someone we both hung out with. Kicked him to the curb, got a divorce,lost about 75 pounds and was ready to start a new chapter. I tried to get my boss to let me manage the facility that he had in Broken Arrow, but he said nope. So, moved to Broken Arrow anyway and started work with US Cellular in the very first call center of theirs. Was interesting, but we got phone calls from very upset New Yorkers, and that is NOT fun! LOL I decided to get a job that was more geared for the bean counting that I love so much. Started work for an oil/gas company on the 29th floor in Downtown Tulsa. Got mixed up with the wrong crowd and lost even more weight ;) In 1995 I worked for a law office, doing accounting for one of their clients. They were very similar to Robert Tilton (he was another *client* of theirs) as far as Evangelist go. They would spend well over a million bucks a month on nothing. *I* think that there was some money laundering going on. I couldn't stomach the tons of boxes of personal items that people would send in to get *blessed*, that were just haphazardly thrown in a room, so I left after just a year. Was plenty of time to gather evidence for the IRS tho! :) I came to the realization that if I didn't get away from these fast friends, it would be the death of me, so I up and moved to Claremore, very small town about 30 minutes from Tulsa. I did some temporary jobs at some big companies in Tulsa for a few years, then got really tired of driving back & forth. I met my current hubby as soon as I moved there, only problem was, he was married at the time. He got divorced from his 2nd wife after he discovered that she was writing hot checks to everyone in town, even the liquor stores and bingo halls! He is a recovering alcoholic but she didn't mind bringing tons of alcohol into the house and being drunk every day. We've been together since 1998, but didn't marry until 3/2001. I got a job doing Payroll at a manufacturing plant, where hubby worke...Expand for more
