About Me

Hi, my name is Michelle. I'm a single mother to Andrew (10) and Ashelyn (6). I completed college in December of 2007 obtaining a degree in Chemical Dependency Counseling. I'm currently in a very new relationship with a wonderful man. My goal is to go back to college and earn my Bachelor's in Social Work; possibly my Master's. I would also love to get my CASAC (credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor) someday. I'm discovering a new happiness in my life and the only thing I'm waiting for is to find a job so I can continue my career. I love my field of work and enjoy every minute of it. The rest you can find on my "complete profile". Any questions, feel free to ask :-)

I'm feeling...

Childhood memories

I don't remember much of my childhood...at least not from the seasons of fall, winter, and spring. I remember my summers vividly. I have one first memory of as a child, but I'm not going to share that one as it is inappropriate. The rest of my childhood memories consist of swinging on swing set, waiting for my friends to arrive for my 6th birthday party, and going camping all summer, every summer, until the unfortunate death of my grandfather the day before my birthday in 1996. I remember those camping memories so vividly. Mom and dad would go to work and I got to stay with my Grandparents all day, everyday. Grama cooked me and my sister whatever we wanted for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She spoiled us. I can't seem to remember much of my childhood except for the camping. I do however, remember my teenage years, after Grampa died and the camping stopped. They sucked, right up until October of 1996, they sucked. Up until that time, walking on eggshells was part of my daily routine; so much a part of it, that sometimes I didn't even realize I was doing it. Even so...the most vivid and happy memories I have are those of camping and spending the entire summer days with Grama and Grampa. Cancer took that away from me. Fuck you Cancer.
