RN for 36 years. Avatar pic is from 1973! Taught high school for 4 years after leaving nursing (9, 10, 11 &12 graders). But got too tired especially daily commute, 1 hr. 15 min. each way. The teens were great but I was tired coming out of nursing all those years and then tackling school teaching! What was I thinking? Retired in 07. Became a Master Gardener through Clemson and volunteer on Mondays at Magnolia Plantation and Gardens Greenhouse. Became VP of our local Magnolia Chapter of the Embroidery Guild of America. Joined the Islanders Quilting Guild about 3 months ago and am learning lots of new things about quilting, which I love. And am in a sewing group. I'm working on cutting back on my schedule as now I on the road all the time again. It's beginning to feel like work instead of retirement!! Love to read about everyone's occupations....

I started out at 16 in a 5 and 10 store, then a loan rep at a finace co, then at a bank and then started doing the good ole tax return in 1965 and I am still doing them. The tax returns are just like sewing. the 5 and dime and the finance co are both gone and the bank had changed from a locally owned bank to new style of banks. I want the locally owned bank. Everything is right there. I thought quilting would be boring, even though my grandmother did it and I remember sitting under the quilting frame while the ladies quilted. Then I got lost in quilting, I love the material, just love looking at it--hate cuting up but then I finally do and I really enjoy hand work. I just lose myself in it, no one else is around.

Retired now but was a child protective investigator, investigating reports of child abuse/neglect.
