I have been an LPN and worked in that field for about 35 years.... nursing homes, private homes, in my home, hospice, family practice, allergy and agencies in 2 different states. In between all of these in the nursing field I have managed a convenience store, driven cars for a tow company, clerked in a sew and vac and worked on an assembly line building typewriters. Through all of that I was also a mom, wife, cook, finance director, carpenter, cleaner, maintenance worker, you get the picture :)
