Who am I?

I am not an expert on anything, and I don't try to pretend that I am. Especially when it comes to raising kids- I have extremely strong feelings about how children of divorced families are treated, and how those children of are integrated into their new blended families. That is all nothing more. Just my opinions, and mine alone.

As soon as I got out of college (long-term plan) I worked for a non-profit agency in my home town. Even though I am not a licensed Social Worker, I did the same things as many of the other social workers. In the beginning my concentration was on Mental Illness within the family. I performed family therapy with several families (yes I was supervised). Then I did some therapy with troubled teens (mostly males) who had problems with their home lives and addiction issues. And I also led a group of girls weekly who would share their horror stories of the child abuse they endured. This was absolutely heart-wrenching.
After about six years I couldn't do it anymore! I had to change something. So I went into Sales, and still to this day that is where I be- Lov'in the business side of things.

A few years down the road I have come back from the big city. And brought the business with me. Now I try to balance being a part- stay at home step-mom and a ever-so suave business animal. **Remember the word try is very important in the above sentence** We are working on progress here not perfection!!!!!!!!!!!!
