I’m a day behind, but when I saw
Blog Every Day in May over at Jenni’s blog, I wanted to join in on yesterdays’
topic. There’s no way that blogging every day in May will happen for me, but I
think it’ll make for some fun blog content. So here we go…today’s post – the
story of my life in 250 words or less!
Grew up in a small town in Northwest
Ohio. First born, with a brother 2 ½ years younger. Great family and a great
group of friends. At 17 met a guy who was on his way off to college. He moved
two hours south to go to Ohio State, we started dating, and a year later I did
the same. Took me three years, but finally decided to major in Sociology, then
freaked out about what to do with a Sociology degree and added Speech and
Hearing Science. Graduated in 2006, got my first job in social services working
with ex-offenders and still have never used that Speech and Hearing Science
major. :)
Kept dating that guy (for a total of 6 ½ years…) but enjoyed the heck out of those first few years out of college. Having my best friend from home move to Columbus helped! Because of her I met my husband, but she never meant to be a matchmaker. Was still dating “that guy” (please don't judge!) but he moved to Iowa and I was finally strong enough to end it. Spent more time with the one I knew was worth it, never looked back. Lived together after 6 months, started grad school, bought a house, got engaged. Continued grad school, planned a wedding. Got married, finished grad school, FINALLY got a job in higher education. No pets, no kids, just Aunt Jess and Uncle Kyle to two amazing little kids and that’s how we like it right now!
Whew! Alright that was 252 words,
but I’d say that’s close enough, right?!
Linking up,
although I'm a day late for both...
Glad I'm not the only person running late! It's so fun to hear the short and sweet version of everyone's story!
ReplyDeleteYou can always count on me to be running late. :) I agree, it's fun fun to read these posts!
DeleteI just jumped in today! I haven't done the "write your life story" prompt yet though! That will take some thought, lol. I loved reading more about you!
ReplyDeleteSo fun and can't wait to read yours! It was definitely hard to make it be only 250 (ish) words! :)
DeleteThe scarf adds a great pop of color to this outfit!
