Seven Things about me, that you may not know:

1.  I was a "Rural Letter Carrier" (USPS) for just shy of 7 years

2. I had a 2nd trimester miscarriage at the age of 19, I had already felt life, and heard the heartbeat. It was quite rough to go through, especially at that age. She would be 30 now. 

3. I was an owner/operator of a tree and firewood service company with my husband (we started it before we were married) for 5 years. We worked side by side, and he always said I was his best assistant (as sometimes he'd have a friend fill in for me)  9 months pregnant with our son, I was still his "rope man" to pull and keep slack on trees as he cut them down.  I have my own chainsaw. (however now with the disabilities I do not cut wood any more...I can still use the log splitter though) 

4.  I was a CNA  and a NA for almost 11 years. (certified Nursing assistant, and Non-certified nursing assistant, I was also a CHHA (Certified Home Health Aide)

5. I have an AA degree in Liberal Arts ( but it was heavy in Human Health, Education and Psychology)  I changed my curriculum 3 times since HS...initially a double major in Art and Psychology,  dropped the art as I was quite discouraged when I saw the talent of my classmates compared to mine, and I had a REAL A$$H**E for basic drawing and 2 dimensional design. 

so, then it was just Psych. then switched to Nursing(pre-nursing) and after a bad car accident, my knees were wrecked ( and the beginning of the neck issues also) so my Orthopedic Doc told me, I'd "never be able to be on my legs for 12 hour shifts" so "get out of Nursing"  so i switched to imaging, knowing there would be some down time...I wanted to do MRI, as for each patient, you spend more time sitting in front of the computer(scanner) than you do up on your legs........................

so That is where my BS in Diagnostic imaging comes in. I went to Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia...one year in X-ray (mandatory) and one in my specialty...MRI. 

6. I only got to work in my field for 5 years, before getting injured severely on the job, and becoming disabled.  The whole reason for me going back to school later in life (got my BS 1 month B4 my 40th Bday) was so Hubby could retire, and I would be the breadwinner. Ron is 19 years older than I. 

7. When I was a young teenager (13-16) I LOVED,  LOVED, LOVED  Horror Comic books, looking back now, I do not know why.
