Who I am
Still Trying to Figure Things Out
Are you doing what you dreamed of doing at high school graduation? What is it or what was it you had planned on in those days?
Who I am 
I didn’t get to graduate from high school because I had to find a way to live on my own when I was 17. Hard times. I just wanted to be independent and able to avoid entanglements from those who were not healthy. Survival was utmost in my mind at that time.
I’m very sure I didn’t think I’d be living my best life in my senior years; but I am. Thank God.

I feel bad because it sounds like you had a less than perfect childhood. I always thought mine wasn’t great because I had two moms and neither loved me, but we learn as we age that God is sufficient and we will be okay. Did you ever get a chance to get your GED? Or further your education?

I didn’t really know what I wanted to do until I was 18 and left school. I chose the Hotelbusiness and I really loved it . Funny after heving the children I did find a job in Primary schools which was perfect for me as I got all holidays off, same as the children. I had no family to help here in the UK and so it worked out perfectley fine. I am happy with all I did and don’t regret anything. Now I am retiring shortly, I am thinking back with happiness!

How many children do you have? Did you move far away from family so that you had no help?
