Let me tell you all about me. I was raised in North Florida where I had a
pretty uneventful life. We lived in the
country and were 20 minutes away from the closest “big” town, which seemed it
was days away when I was little. I have
3 brothers and 2 sisters; I am the baby of the family. My parents were married for 45 years when my
father passed away. I was a quiet and
shy child that had a freckle face and slender build. My youngest sister and I would spend hours
outdoors; some of those hours we would play, the others we would fight. I always felt awkward and out of place but
that got better as I got older and I realized I had it going on! When I came into the teenage years, Mother
Nature was very good to me J I had no problem’s finding a date or boyfriend. I hated school and couldn’t have cared less
about my grades or attendance.
Unfortunately I dropped out of school when I was 17 and joined the
working world. I worked in the food
industry until I was 22 or so then I was onto the secretarial world. I met my husband when I was around 18 years
old. He was my boyfriend’s
roommate. We were friends then enemies
then friends again then the best of friends then lovers. We were rarely apart from one another. At the age of 25 I found out I was pregnant
with Bub. I was sooooo scared and Dew
was sooooo happy. He would have married
me that day but I didn’t want to be the chick that got married because she was
pregnant. On the day that he was born our
lives where changed forever. The change
was huge but the happiness and love you feel is so much greater than the
change. Such a sweet baby boy we were
blessed with. Two years later I was
pregnant again, I was around 3 ½ months along when I miscarried. I had just begun working for the University
of Florida as a secretary. I signed up
to take the GED test and received my high school diploma when I was 28 years
old. I was content with my job but
always felt that I needed more. Four
years after Bub was born I was pregnant again!
We welcomed precious Nan. Such a
small, beautiful girl. I am now the
webmaster and event coordinator. I love my
job, for the first time in 14 years, I actually love my job. I started taking college classes in
2010. I am going for my A.S. in Web
Technologies. It will take me awhile to
get my degree since I cannot possibly attend full time. So, with a husband, children, work, school
and a home to take care of…I am tired and need a nap.
Big Hugs,
Char~
