Annette's Story

Life annettemay at juno dot com get it? Mistyinseattle dot com works too. My whole focus and goal in life was to get married and have babies... I did that. Got married June 30, '79 and had two daughters, Dec/82 and Sep/84. Then I homeschooled them all the way through their GED's and then they got jobs and moved out! Horay! WOW - That went fast! I returned to the "real world" aka - went to work Full time in Feb/2000 teaching pre-school. That lasted until Oct/2003. Since Dec/2003 I have been working part time at Freddy's. It's something to do to occupy my time until hubby Ron retires and we can travel together. It also funds my rubber stamping habbit - almost! I became a Mother-in-law as oldest daughter married in May '05. I also have traveled to Brazil (and will go back there someday) with a work & witness team - building churchs/homes and doing various ministry activities. I am trying to become a childrens author having had several manuscripts accepted and now am working with illustrators for that "perfect" look in the books. Hopefully some of my books will be on store shelves before I die! Workplace At first being a "house wife" was wonderful...but after a few months boredom set in and I went to work at a day care center working with the afternoon kindergarten class. I loved the kids but the pay/hour...Expand for more
s sucked...but having my own money to spend got addicting. 3 years later I quit the day care to have an at home child care center, then added our first daughter to that menu. I did child care out of our home off and on for years, mostly for friends/neighbors and a little free cash. Later, after our 2nd daughter came along and we moved to Prairie Ridge, I got started helping home bound elderly in the neighborhood. Mostly giving their spouses relief care. It was interesting and I met some very special people in their last years. However, I wanted more money and as my daughters entered their final years of school and didn't "need" me as much (I home schooled them all the way) I went back to work - coincidently at the SAME day care center. This time the pay was better, the hours better, but the management sucked. I stuck it out for 3 1/2 years and then went to work at Fred Meyers - in Playland of course - taking care of the kids while parents shop. I love the work and having been there over 4 years now...the pay is OK/hours (3 to 7 PM) I've adjusted to, and management is great....so I'm still looking for that "perfect" job. My daughters both worked at Walmart, Misty is now dis-abled, and Joy works for RestorX and loves it there. Ron still works at Jeld-Wen Windows and still thinks retirement is 20 yrs away.
