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...

Haven't posted in a few days

I was feeling a little better, actually, so maybe that's why I haven't posted in a few days. I usually write when I'm upset. I had to work on Thanksgiving, which helped keep my mind off my first Thanksgiving without Grama. And it also felt good to make a difference to the three girls that had no family to go home and spend Thanksgiving with at the House I work at. We made a huge Thanksgiving dinner and then took them out for a nice walk and for ice cream. They all loved it. Then they came home and had apple and pumpkin pie. Anyway, today I went to the Dollar store to get toothpaste. They are the only place that carries the toothpaste I like-Pepsodent, because it's wintergreen flavored. Anyway, it was my Grama's favorite store and as soon as I walk in, I had to do a double take because I thought I saw her, standing there----to my left. Same thing happened again in the same store, with a different woman. Then of course, everyone's playing Christmas music. This Christmas is going to be so hard for me, being that we had a Christmas Eve tradition with my Grama at her house. I have to work Christmas Eve and Christmas night thought, so maybe it will help me keep my mind off things.
