Dina's Story
Life
Most the time just working day, nites, weekends..varies with the week, to make ends meet. I have a gorgeous cat named Sterling. He has been the best part of my life up till now.. someone to come home to and be loved by and share love with. No strings just feed/water and cuddle and he is content. He is the typical MALE as he is always demanding his needs to be met lol but he is such a charmer you wouldn't deny him a thing. Now also, have my sister living with me and I not so long ago met this wonderful man from online living down around Miami area (Homestead) to be exact. Now some months later he is also living with me and sis and he recently asked me to marry him so now Im engaged too. Early this yr 2005 in jan found out I had Uterine Cancer, but caught in time and with surgery and gods help I am doing ok and look to survive it all. Presently in Daytona Beach area but will be moving to beachside in Ormond Beach a few mins Northeast of here..more tropical and people friendly. Time will tell, I don't seem to be the one controlling my fate lately, I just keep watching and see where I am day to day. I will keep you posted as I find out.. lol 2007 Got married OCT 27 in Orlando with a nice moderate ceremony and then went to disney next 2 days, then SC. the following week for the Honeymoon to see my husbands family and stay at a bed and Breakfast by the mountains. Was a great week. 2009..almost time for our 2nd anniversary already. Hard to believe its been 2 yrs already but I guess its like they say, when having fun time flys. Not the best of financial situations right now but hoping it gets better soon. If we could find a job for the hubby it would help GREATLY... HINT HINT.. anyone have one you can give him?????? We have two more cats now.. CC a female tabby thats totally wacko.. and Paizley a tortoise shell female so sweet and soft and cuddly and loving.. and she squeeks so I call her squeaker for nick name. We are renting a cute little house on mainland in Ormond Beach in a nice quiet neighborhood with a super landlord. If I can keep working full time like I am doing 12 hrs every day mon-sun, and I don't get anymore bills I think we will make it, but just bearly.
Workplace
out of HS I went into business at the local Desaulniers printing company for about 1...Expand for more
3 yrs then moved to FL when I got the impression the co was about to go under. I did some misc secretarial jobs not liking it there much cause of the weather, traffic, bugs, and also homesick, came home to try returning to life as it had been to find out it had changed some. Decided to take a college course as a CNA and did some volunteer work at local hospital ending up getting a Night job there for next 5 yrs along with day job and volunteer work at same hospital so vertually lived there. Lost my Mother suddenly from heart attack and rather than be alone and relive all the memories over and over ea day, I moved back down to FL to be around my Father, Sister and her family in Ormond and my best friend with her family as well in the Orlando area. I first worked thru a Medical Insurance Company doing my CNA work for a year then the dept I was in closed so I transferred to reception type jobs for next 4 yrs. Finally moving on to a new Co called Granny Nannies to do Home Health Care in Patients homes, facilitys or Hospitals thru out the surrounding area of which I still do today. It is much better in many ways than office and/or facility work day after day stress wise and other ways but then there are days I could just move to a island with nothing but animals for friends and be quite content but thats not the average norm. I hope to learn Phlybotomy some time soon so I can advance my experience and as such get more chances as work in a broader area thru out the community hense more MONEY.. :) gots to keep getting the money to keep off the bill collectors...Ok its Nov 2010 and a lot has come down the pike... health still messed up but husband now working at hospital and after only a month or so is being prepared to come over and actually working FOR the place and not just at it as a temp worker. So that will make life easier as he gets his benefits soon. Then I have been notified I am able to get my SS Disablities too now so that is more to help us survive it all. SO now we can start paying off bills and catch up and then start our new life finally as it should have been and we have learned a lot of life lessons so we won't repeat the mistakes again, hopefully.. no really not again this time we will do it right. Also can get my kities back with me, miss them so bad..
