If you really want to read my bio, here ya go! After graduating from Hale, I attended Western for 2 years, then I married Roger Padgett (a math teacher/coach) had 4 kids, participated with the kids in the Co-op preschool, then I tried to go back college. A 3 hour commute was too much for me, so I started working at the grade school as a SpEd Aide working with students with Autism, and continuing to work with kids in the sped dept until I resigned in June 2003. All of my kids are now out of high school: Josh, graduated from Harvey Mudd College in May, 2004, just got married, fishes in AK and is working towards a HS teaching certificate; Jordan, is working as a plumber, Kelsie just graduated from WWU, works at a bank and as a barista. My youngest, Quinn, is a fisherman in AK also, and figuring out what he wants to do. I spent their high school years watching them play sports (the older 3 played all year long!!!) and Quinn was in drama. We moved down to Long Beach, WA area from Darringto...Expand for more
n where we lived for about 17 years. I went back to school again, nursing this time, now that we moved to Chinook, it's only about a 30 min. round trip! I am enjoying classes but am a bit leery about what I have done! But it is keeping me busy so I don't think about how much I miss my kids!! For those of you with young'uns...it goes way too fast, so ENJOY!! Hope to see ya'all at the picnic or mixer!!
Roger and I are now in Cheney, I'm working at Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane, and he's teaching math at Harrington HS. Learning new things every day!
College
I met my future husband my freshman year. We were married after my sophomore year so I took a kid-raising hiatus for about 12 years. Tried to complete a degree in HS Chem/Physics Ed, survived a year of 3 hour commute and decided to wait till the kids graduated! After 3 of the 4 graduated from HS and went on to college, I have gone back to get a nursing degree since I already worked in education for 12 years!
I have now graduated from Clatsop CC in Astoria, OR as a RN! Phew!
Workplace
I am currently working at Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane as a RN in the oncology unit. We see lots of different illnesses besides cancer. I'm learning a lot, but boy am I tired! hahaha
