As a young college student, I left home to ... well, leave home. I started out as a computer science major who never owned a computer before. This was back before e-mail and all the other things we do on computers that we take for granted. This was the beginning of the computer age. Back when a computer had a larger office than the owner of the company, for those companies that owned computers. But then, through learning about my own abilities, I transitioned to Math, to English, to Teaching and eventually said "get me out of here" and graduated with a degree in English with a minor in Journalism.
And yet, I've never been known for my writing.
Then, I started working in Sales, using my math skills and typing skills, and communication skills. I married and finally started my family. (This is one of those things about my life that I will share, at another time.) With my daughter sleeping on my shoulder, I went back to school and earned my advanced accounting degree. One of my first call-backs from an accounting firm was because of my English Degree. Go figure. But I am back to work, using all of my small talents and able to say my Accounting Degree was worth it.
This Blog, is for my English Degree.
Here, I hope to expand my ability to write about something someone actually would like to read. I will do my best to keep it interesting. But I will also be honest. As a co-worker once told me, "You have too much drama in your life." I didn't let him forget it. Because that is the best way to describe my life. Or Lives. Because as we grow, and age, and change, we are like a year and how it is broken into seasons. We have different lives.
Hopefully, my stories, my experience, my lessons can be shared and benefit others.
