Life growing up had lots of positive experiences but also had its heartbreak too. I lived with my family on a farm, raised my brothers and sisters, and made sure all the daily chores were done as expected (school work and church stuff too).
Growing up, I was lucky to study piano (for many years). I also loved to sing and dance and be part of an English Handbell Choir. My young adult life got off to a very rough start (which this has tempered my outlook on life, for years). Looking to make my life better, I earned two very expensive college degrees but also earned a separate certificate of completion for my long held career in the beauty industry (45 years and still active). I raised my two sons on my own. They are the loves of my life. My sons are awesome. Late in life, I lost my dad to dementia and Alzheimer’s, and just last fall my eldest brother (and abuser) passed on, too. I am very private and guard my privacy as well as I can and to me, that is a really big achievement.
