I'm the Mom of 3 kids and wife to my husband.  My oldest child graduated from NTI and has moved to AR, while my remaining children (at home) are still attending school.  Since I've started Tools, I'm doing much better about staying positive and proud!  I'm currently unemployed, sort of by choice.

I was born in Sheboygan and moved with my parents and the Air Force for the first 5 years of my life, until my parents divorced.  Mom remarried and I grew up in the house w/ Mom, my step-dad and my little sister (2 years younger).  Lived in IL most of my life, both parents that raised me have passed.  My father still lives in Sheboygan and I see him as often as I ever did (once every 4 or 5 years, when I go up there.)  My children, husband and I are a pretty close family with very little outside encouragement, guidance or support, as a result.

I met my husband at a gas station I worked at in my hometown.  We had a baby a year later and got married 5 years after that!  Our oldest 2 children stood in our wedding.

I intend to find my nitch.  I don't know if it will be a job, or voluteer work.  But something that gets me out of the house and helps me make changes in my social life.  I want to quit drinking & smoking.  At this point, my future is still being written.  :)
