education-you wouldn't know by the way I misspell everything I was once highly educated.

military-none

job-I clean offices(a very boring job but in these days I am grateful to have a job, especially here in Mich.)

kids-no

hobbies-I don't really have any hobbies cause I can't stick to anything. I have many likes classic rock music, reading, nature and animals.

something not many people know- I have a whole list of them, but I guess the one that can really stick out is I once had tickets to see the Beatles during their last tour of the U.S., sadly enough I didn't get to go, cause my Dad got fed up with the traffic in Detroit and tthat was that. I know those tickets are buried somewhere in the house lol!

education - BA Psychology - UNC- CH
military - no
current job - SAHM
kids - one 5th grade daughter
hobbies - gardening, animals, dollhouse building, knitting, reading
something people don't know about me - I graduated from UNC and I'm a Tarheel fan, no doubt, but based on my two great loves in life (plants and animals) I probably should have gone to NCSU.

 

[serendipity22]

Education: HS Diploma, graduated with a CNA certification. Was in my second year of college when mother passed away and step dad locked me out of the house. So, I never finished... Got alot of schooling through my Banking Job that I had for 8 years though!

Military: Thought about it but declined.

Current Job: WAHM. Raising my 2yo son and do CSR work at home for an internet company.

Kids: One son.

Hobbies: Camping, animals, gardening in the spring, enjoying life.

Something people don't know about me: I'm very optimistic about life and am amazed at how all things are connected and why things happen when they do. There is a pattern to everything if we would just pay attention.

 

[GoodEgg]

Education: BA Psychology, which I've pretty much thrown out the window. AA Biology. But overall I've learned a LOT more in my years of teaching homeschool than I was ever taught in school myself.

Military: no, but was a military wife for some years

Current job: basically whatever pays the bills and lets me stay home as much as possible with my daughter. I work at a health store for a friend of the family, sell fibers on eBay, and do a lot of paid internet advertising

Kids: One sixth grade daughter (and I pretty much raised my brother and sister, who are adults now).

Hobbies: I LOVE doing stuff. Not much free time for it, but I love crafts of all kinds, reading, puzzles, games, decorating, gardening, (especially raising African violets), training dogs, raising animals in general (love animals and playing with breeding types), photography, spending time with family, writing, music and dance ... there's not much that I've tried that I don't enjoy doing!

Something people don't know about me? Well ... I am not one to hide things really. But people are sometimes surprised to learn that I used to ride a motorcycle, and one time made a trip of about 1,000 miles on a 400-cc bike. (That's a lot of vibration, LOL, and NOT a smooth ride!) Oh, and I guess some people are surprised to learn that I LOVE gaming too ... mostly RPG's, which are mostly the arena of teenage boys, I guess, which I am about as far from being as I possibly could be!
