I was 25 years old when I married my first husband. After several disturbing behavior problems, I divorced in 2001. Rebecca moved to Texas where her grandmother currently resides.
I found my current husband Jason in the later part of 2001. We married in 2003 on the day after Valentine's day. He is my sweetheart, and I will never leave him. We were a blended family and we traveled by cruiseline, camped in tents and cabins, and we traveled to Texas. Our blended family went many places together to see the beaches, campgrounds, forest,fishing, the Grand Canyon, and many places in California and Mexico.
At 18 I was diagnosed with Scleroderma. I knew that one day I would not be able to work, so I saved my money in stocks,money markets, annuities, retirement accounts, and worked very hard. I had two jobs some years.
I got two kinds of disability insurance policies. I graduated from Hayward state (now called East Bay State University with a B.A in Psychology and two credentials to teach Art and Elementary school. I worked summers to pay for Christmas presents.
Later in Fresno I got my Mild/Moderate credential and Master's in Educational leadership.
After a stoke and illnesses of Scleroderma I retired in November of 2011 with 25 years of teaching. I now work from home making dresses/vestments for the Infant of Prague and other religious items.
