whatta ya do fer a living...


Recommended Posts

Well I am the queen of the castle, typical stay at home mom. I keep my 2 yr old niece full time which is a big job in itself right now. I have farm animals I tend to everyday....goats, donkeys, geese and a pot bellied pig, all very much loved pets plus 2 very rotten dogs. I still manage to run the lives, or try to, of my 25 yr old son and 20 yr old daughter, lol. They don't complain. We a close family.

My husband of almost 32 yrs works for a major natural gas pipeline and is out of town quite a bit. I'm very thankful to have been able to raise my kids at home and now can be there for Shelby. I've been very lucky to have such a great job!

I am a nurse. Been one for over 40 years. The bulk of my career has been working with senior citizens in a nursing home/assisted living facility. I have worked in many of them. some good, some not so good and a couple that were absolute hell holes (didn't stay in those very long). The one I'm at now (and have been for almost 3 years) is one of the very best in our area. I dearly love "my" residents as do most of my co-workers.

The hubby works in housekeeping in a local hospital.

I work for an oil heat company, After yesterday I realize I am also a part time nut case. Well only found that out after working for 11 hours strait without a break, then stopping for 2 and then going back out for 4 more. ugh is winter over yet? 70 hours a week are getting old.

90 inches of snow doesn't make it easy. crybaby.gif

But, I love what I do.yes.gif

I'm a Database Admin, SQL developer, reporting ninja, and part-time website designer for a Fortune-10 tech company. I also build/repair computers, rebuild/restore/ride motorcycles, and dabble in woodworking (when I have the time).

I'm a far cry from what I went to school for... Biology/Chemistry/Physics/Math/English and nearly completed a year of Medical School before I came to my senses :) I did love working the ER and Maternity (delivered six, including three of my own), but knew I'd be miserable the rest of my life if I stayed in that line of work.

Understand completely, Adversarious1.

Maybe I will also apply my education, now that I have all this free time.

The Military taught me such things as Honor...Discipline.

College taught me an orderly way to think.
