My Life At a Glance

I never imagined their would be a day I would move to Indiana. I always laughed at hoosiers when I was a kid, I thought their was something funky in their water. Little did I know I would soon be one too.
I grew up in a small town called Manteno in Illinois, it is 30 minutes south of chicago and 20 minutes west of the indiana border. I hated living their because it was so small and everybody knew every body else business, but it was a safe little town that had a good opportunity to raise a family. My parents got divorced when I turned 5, and I ended up living with my mom & older sister. Mom went through a few mariages before she found Mr. Right, so we had our ups and downs. When we moved in the first house after my parents got divorced, next door their lived a 13 year old boy. I never payed any attenion to him because I was only 7 but I never thought one day he would become my husband. I had a good child hood and as a teenager I went to school for cosmetology, nursing & pharmacy technician. I met up with my future husband at a fireworks show in my town which was 2 months after I graduated HS. He was my childhood neighbor and he moved to indiana, we ended up hitting it off and now I am here in Indiana. I can't believe how the stars were aligned that night, it was so rare that we would meet again. So we ended up getting married in 04 & had our wonderful son in 05. This is all I have for now!

| | AWWWW..this reminds me a lot of my own childhood(especially mom being married a few times). I too never thought I would end up where I am (SE GA), coming from a very upper middle class backround in CT. It's funny the things we will do for love... |
