I am working as a nurse'aide at an hospital for elderly peoples .

bakerylady · 05-30-2005, 10:47 AM

My husband and I own a bakery/deli in winnipeg. We have a wholesale division that we deliver to restaurants, hotels, golf coarses etc. We also have a retail store front that we sell deli fresh salads, soups, prepared foods gourmet coffee.
An exciting new line that we are venturing into is dog treats. Right now we manufacture for a company in Canada called Dr. Deans and these treats are made with 100% human grade ingredients. They are so good that my husband Gerard and Sedrick both get rewarded with these for good behavior!! Gerard loves to snack on them everynight!! Anyways we are also working on a private label line for LARGE pet store chain in Canada and the US and hopeful once all the red tape is cut through you will be able to purchase them!! I will keep you posted.
My primary purpose in life right now is being the best Mom to Sedrick and nurse him through his recovery.
Thats my story and I am sticking to it.

I am a Pharmacist.
I still work during the day and at night I am a mother of two and mother of a six month old fur baby called Genie.
This is a very exciting life I have. I sometimes forget that I have a life, also.
That when my husband reminds me...
Good luck to all out there.

Thanks for that compliment. I have raised three children (they are all in their twenties now) and my husband (of 27 years) and I sacrificed many material things so I could be a stay-at-home mom. My husband even worked two jobs for a while when our children were in competitive gymnastics. All three of them traveled the United States competing & our youngest even made the US team to travel to China. I home-schooled our children thru fourth grade & made it a point to try & be at all of their activities once they were in school. Keeping myself in shape & managing a BUSY household is a full-time job! And as far as pay - well I think I have been paid in far greater ways than $$$$$

I am in printing and have been for the past 25 years. I work in the prepress dept. and it is all digital now. I am just thankful to have a job here in Denver. My biggest accomplishment thus far this year is no more smoking after 30 plus years of it Bo appreciates it. Everyone seems happy with their jobs for the most part. I am happy for you guys.

I work for an insurance company (claims department) facilitating the defense of doctors in medical malpractice claims. Basically, I'm the liaison between the doctor and the attorneys we have defending them. (A lovely job! I get paid to push attorneys and doctors around

)

OK, so that's my vocation...As an avocation, I'm really enjoying myself learning (3 years now) to play the flute. I play in a band at our local Conservatory of Music during the school year, am in a flute quartet year round, and take private lessons on Saturday mornings (with all the rest of the kids....Swear to God, the kids with lessons just before and after me are probably all of 7 or 8).

OH....and I spoil Yorkie girls ROTTEN!!!!!!

Sidney · 05-31-2005, 12:05 PM

Mainly I've been mom to my four kids that are all grown now ages ranging from 26 -31. I've worked on and off doing alot of different jobs from fixing hair to cashier.

I'm babysitting now for one of my grand-daughters full time. ( I had forgotton how hard it is to have a toddler!!

)
I'm dreaming and studying to become a hobby-breeder . I've LOVED yorkies for 20 years and owned them for almost 14. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time and finally have the time.

This has been so interesting reading about everyone..!

Biddy's Mom · 05-31-2005, 12:24 PM

I work in the Accounts Payable department for a Pharmaceutical Company. Basicly, the job is the kid that gets his milk money stolen from him on a daily basis!! All day long - where's my money? where's my money? where's my money?! URGH!! But I'm not stressed though...

kp&nala · 05-31-2005, 01:12 PM

did you have to take the HOBET test? i can't remeber what it stands for Health Occupations something. The program here only excepts 14 students each fall and my scores need to be in the 70s or 80s on all three parts to get in not to mention the other stuff. i'm so stressed about it and i still have a year to take it and retake it, lol.
