Jeanne's Story

I went to Glendale Community College after high school and Grand Canyon Community College. In 1982, I went into the Navy and became a dental assistant , but, spent most of my time in the field with the marines. I went FMF. I met my soon to be husband in school. We travel the world. I was stationed at Camp Pendleton, Okinawa, Japan, Treasure Island, SF, Okinawa, Japan, Camp LeJuene, NC, and retired in Keflavik, Ice land. I am divorced after 24 years of marriage and have one beautiful daughter, named Sarah, from that union. I became a contracted dental assistant on base till I lost my job. Went back to school with the help of Uncle Sam and in May 2015 graduated from Coastal Carolina Community College with an Associate' s in Medical Administration Phi Theta Kappa. I worked hard for that honor. I was living in Jacksonville, NC after my divorce, but, family was so far away. After graduation, it was a good time to start fresh; so I dumped the non committal b/f and moved to Oklahoma City to be near my daughter and step daughter. I am getting to know my step daughter and have three grandchildren ages: 14, 12, and 10. (all girls) Her husband has a lot of estrogen to contend with. I am a new person. I have lost 30 pounds because I take 3 dogs on a 2.5 walk daily, hair color is dark brown with red tints, inner and ...Expand for more
exterior peace from bad relationships, in awesome health. ( I still want to loose 25 pounds to get down to 125 -120) I also wear contacts. I went on a dating site and we are 12 for 12. Currently, seeing a gentleman who is 14 years my senior who adores me and is a Southern Gentleman with a Texas/ Oklahoma accent and retired nurse. He has a pilots license and works part time. I don't know how it will work out, but, slow is the only method to know a person. My daughter is going to school and soon will have her associates degree. She want to be a psychiatrist or counselor with the VA. She will be working for that in Jan 2016. I want to return to school and take five classes( A and P, Pharmacology, Spanish, Accounting, and Quick books) Afterwards, I want to go for my bachelor's and have not decided what direction I am heading. Oklahoma City is nice, but, not where I wanted to go. I wanted and still have a chance to work with the VA in San Antonio, TX. I love it down there because there is so much to do and see. I lived in a small city where you had to drive to get anywhere. The River Walk is an awesome place to visit and the Alamo. The wine tasting, Spanish markets, multi cultural eating facilities, and the people are very friendly. Look forward to seeing any old class mates who live in the Oklahoma City Area.
