Joni's Story
Greetings to all from Ludington, MI
I have lived in this area for the last 22 years. I escaped from the city in 1987 to work with my parents in their Art store where we did custom framing, sold art supplies and had an art gallery. I eventually took it over in 2000 when they decided to retire. After six years of ownership, I decided near 20 years of this type of work was enough (not to mention the winters here are pretty tough on retail stores...it is pretty much a tourist area and I was tired of trying to get through the winters with next to nothing as income) so I sold the business. At this time I am an office manager at a local auto body shop as well as doing light bookkeeping for two other businesses in the area. My plans for this year (2009) include running for City Clerk. Never thought of myself as a politician, but I guess I'll get a taste of it. In my free time, I enjoy my three australian s...Expand for more
hepherds and riding my horse, playing my guitar and drawing/painting (tho there isn't enough time it seems to do everything). Basically, I stay busy and enjoy life!
Update: Well, the election was last November and I'm sad to say I didn't win. I ran against the incumbent and it is difficult to win when the issues that are there are not public knowledge. Anyway, a lot of people came out and voted for me and it was an awesome experience...I'm glad I tried. So now, I am an office manager in a local auto body collision repair shop as well as doing payroll and payroll taxes for 2 other local businesses. I am also the treasurer for my bowling league and on the board of directors for Our Wish of Western Michigan (a non-profit group that helps people with the cost of spaying and neutering their pets to cut down on the overpopulation of unwanted animals). I stay pretty busy and that's the way I like it. :)
