in aug. 2011 i am re-entering college for micor-computer specialist. i recently lost both breasts due to breast cancer. i live alone and love it, as now i only cook and clean up after one person ME and i love it. i worked 10 yrs at houghton deli, but due to my great boss passsing from cancer the place sold to larry bentler and i wasn't rehired. i loved that place he was the best boss that anyone could ask for. now that i live alone i love spending time with my sister, Cece, and my kids and my grandkids. i have 7 grandsons and 1 granddaughter. i'm in my happy zone right now. I always wanted to be a teacher when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a great idea. As it turns out, they were right i should have pushed myself. reading and playing games on the computer If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have courage, friendliness, and ambition to be able to deal with the day-to-day. my hero was my mother especially during the last few years of her life The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is my mother, because i miss her so much so i have to change my ways to see her. don't care much for sports but will watch them, and i hate reality shows. i have a dog that was rescued and a cat named puppy.

I'm going to get there by takin better care of myself. linda morris was my oldest and best friend and i don't see her much now we kinda went our separate ways My first job was at sheaffer pen co, where I got paid 5.35 an hour to be a receptionist. What I remember most about it is i loved the job but only stayed a year as i wanted to be around people so started bartending. my favorite memories was my aunt clara comin and gettin me out of the house to spend summers with her and travel all over campin out I always wanted to be a teacher when I grew up.
