I grew up in a small town, Lodi, CA. I moved to the Los Angeles area in my mid-twenties because I always thought I was a "Big City" girl. I'm not. I moved back. I loved the ocean though. Now I live in a town one-third the size of Lodi and it's way too big. If anyone knows where I can find Mayberry, please let me know. I think I found it in New Hampshire, but my husband still needs a lot of convincing. 

Growing up I had always wanted to teach first grade. Unfortunately, when my high school counselor told me there wouldn't be any teaching jobs when I graduated from college, I believed her. So, I became a secretary. Just a little piece of advise...never, ever let someone take your dream away.
