Pamela Murphy:  

Some time after High School....... Got married, then divorced. Got married again. That one only lasted a year. Maybe I should have given up on that idea. Maybe the Universe was trying to tell me something...... On a wild hair-brained suggestion I decided to join the U.S. Navy in 1981 at the ripe old age of 32. Of course boot camp nearly killed me, at least I thought so at the time. However, that was probably one of the smartest things I ever did in my life. I was able to serve my country, meet interesting people and learn tons about myself. Not to mention that after surviving boot camp I was in the best shape of my life. What an adventure! While serving in the Navy I met my third and final husband. Yippee....I finally got it right! I joined the military to further my education in the computer field as the opportunities were pretty much stacked against women in the civilian community in the early 1980's. After getting out of the military, I started working as a U.S. Customs clearing agent. Stayed with that until I started having some health problems. I have been a home flunky since 2005. Being a domestic goddess was never something that I wished to aspire to, but I am trying to look at this as my new job. I haven't quite got it down yet, but I am still working on it. In my spare time I have become a facebook junkie, thanks to an invitation from a former Classmate to check out their facebook page. Had to be a member to participate. But no regrets...it has allowed me to re-connect...Expand for more
