Karen's Story
Life Boy
I have a german shorthair pointer named sara lee. I also have a yellow male cat named tigger. I have 2 boys, one is 15 whose name is andy jack. The other boy is 9, whose name is javon donte'. They both keep me busy, and they both have two totally different attitudes toward things. I do plan on taking a motorcycle class this spring or summer and get my motorcycle license. I already have my leathers, its been a dream to get my bike, so I guess its now or never. Lets see, after high school I went to college, took Nursing and Medical Lab Tech. After that I worked at MLT for about a yr. Then my first husband and myself moved around alot, due to his job. I worked various jobs after that and then in 1995 I found a groomer who was going to train people if they wanted to do dog grooming, so I decided to do that because I have always loved aminals. I was a bather for her, for about 6 months, then she started training me at the table with her on dogs. About a yr. later I became a groomer. I worked for her for about 7 yrs.. Then I decided I wanted my own shop. In 1999, I got divorced. Then things started really opening up for me, met a great guy who encouraged me to start my own business. We got married, and I have had my own shop now for 5 yrs. So all in all I have been a dog groomer for 12 yrs. now and I enjoye...Expand for more
d every moment of it. Its nice going to work and being your own boss and enjoying the people or should I say the animals you get to work on every day. The animals love getting pretty and cleaned up and put into special haircuts. I've been married nowalmost 8 yrs. and have loved every moment of it. Jimmy is a great guy and a very hard worker. This last summer since Aug. 20,2010 has been very interesting. WE moved to Rhinelander, WI. Trust me when I say nothing is up here but beautiful woods and woods. Its great, we have a family of deer we feed every day and evening, a chipmunk etc. My 14 yr. old just loves it here and school.. I now work for another groomer, don't own my own business anymore and I can truly say I love it . It's nice going home to no after responsibitilty's. My older son who is 20 now is still back in wyoming. It took us alittle over a year to build our new house, what an experience, Jimmy did all the work himself inside and outside, except for the outside walls and trustess on the house. We have a contractor, but what a joke, we won;t go there. Jimmy says the next time he builds a house he'll get payed for it HA-HA. All in All it was fun and alot of hard work. It brought the family together more. During this time we stayed in our camper, on our land. But I'm glad to be in our house now where it is warm.
