Mindy's Story

Life My Spouse We met in PCA, had no classes together but we both noticed one another.We also had a mutual friend Dave. He was in some of each of our classes. Kenny told him he wanted to meet me and Dave told him you've got your work cut out for you! He kept tring to put us together at parties & school. Dave gave a party, he had a pet boa constricter named Victor. He came up behind me & put the snake around my neck.I was afraid to move let alone breath.I thought if I took a deep breath it might tighten up on me.Tears rolled down my cheek & I said get it off me. My big brave hero said, Dave thats not funny, then he uncoiled the snake from around my neck.I was so thankful.I figured he's an okay guy. I sat down and started to talk to him and the rest is history.Years later someone asked me if I thought it was a set up. It never occured to me at the time. I asked Ken and he said he doesn't remember, so I think it was! My Pets first of all my pets have it real good because I'm a groomer!I've always loved handling animals and have a great repore with them. I have 2 dogs &1 cat. My cat is special,She showed up one day a stayed. Her name is Tia . she's orange and white,has a ringlet tail & an endless personality. Then I have 2 dogs Zoe and Sami. almost 2 Thanksgivings ago, we drove to South Carolina to visit my brother and family. My neice said, daisy's getting fat, she's their dog a mix between a yellow lab and a dauchshund. I looked at my neice & said,she's going to have puppies. I said if I'm guessing right in about 2 weeks. That was about the 27th of november. December 17th, Daisy had 8 puppies.6 weeks later my son Jordan, my cousin & her daughter and myself all drove to South Carolina,on Feb.4th, we brought back 6 of the puppies for me to find homes for.My cousin took one of the male pups. They named him ozzie. I kept 2 of the puppies Zoe &Sami. Then the three other puppies were all placed with family's that live in the area. The pupp...Expand for more
ies are very cute. Zoe and Ozzie look like little yellow labs that were shrunk down to the size of a large beagle but are yellow lab like in every other way. Sami is a drop taller & all brown & black around his face and ears and is the only one with a curled up tail. The rest look more like the father which was some type of spaniel mix. they're about the same size roughly except they all have the spaniel longer hair. Two were jet black one male one female, and the other has the coloring of a golden retriever. ^hey get to see each other & they love each other. My Kids my kids are good kids and a major part of my life.I have a daughter who is now 19 as of Aug./04 and a son who is now 16 as of April/04. They both are very active and social kids andthey kepp me young. Their father and I have been married 22 years and know one another 27 1/2 years as of June/04. We knew once we started dating that we wanted to be married, but we went slow because we didn't want to be another statistic. If their was ever a good thing that we showed our kids I think that was one of them. My kids feel like their in no real hurry to attach themselfs to any one person just yet.A lot of their friends are!I'am glad to say my kids have that idea down pat. My Job I am an animal groomer. dogs,cats,even rabbits at times.I own my business and have a great clientel. When I started it, I had the additude that I wanted a particular type of client. I wanted clients that are people who really care about their animals welfare.If I advertised, you never know who your clients are. So i decided I wanted strictly word of mouth referals. It would take longer to build a business that way but after a little while I gained a thriving business.one customer leads you to 2 and 2 leads you to 10. It's really been great.I have my own work studio built in my home that we built as we were designing and building my home 6 1/2 years ago.I love not having to answer to anyone but me.
