Lynda's Story
May, 19, 2008
Ok, So I'm 45 living in western NC mountains. I've been working at Harrah's Cherokee casino for 9 years and I still love my job. After high school I did get married for all of three years. You know me I'll do anything once. Twice if I like it. Been divorced for 19 years. Probubly wont do that again. LOL I have one child, a daughter. She will be 20 this year and of course the light of my life. I am living with my Mother but it is for her benifit. She needs a live in keeper. It gets really really hard sometimes but I wouldnt be anywhere else. My Mother has always been my best friend (even though I didnt always know it). My Father died in 94 so she was alone and I was the only single child so here I am. Moving from Charlotte to Weaverville in 89 was a culture shock but I realized it was the place to raise my Daughter and I'm glad I did. We moved to Bryson City in 99 to be with my Mother. After 9 years I have found that I am related to just ...Expand for more
about everyone in Bryson and Cherokee. Gotta admit it's strange having everyone in town know who you are and and everything you do. Not like Charlotte at all. But it's really cool knowing if your car breaks down and your stranded someone you know will come along in a few minutes.
Matthew Harper is still my best friend. We talk to each other everyday. I call him my phone Husband. We share all happy moments, Vent to each other when we are really angry and cry together when it's been an extreamly bad day. Thank God for Verizons in plan because it was costing us a fortune (he lives in Morganton). I believe we are responsible for each others sanity. Friends like that are priceless.
Oh well, I guess thats all I have thats important anyway. Oh the picture I posted, it was Tropical get away give away at work and they passed out flower leis for us to wear. It was itchy around my neck so I put it in my hair. It's not normal for me to wear flowers on my head LOL
