| I moved to Colorado in the late 70's and
worked as a bartender at various places. After Dad died, Mom came to
Colorado to stay with me but she was getting sicker and wanted to be near her
family in Oregon. We moved to Springfield and bought a really cute little
mobile home and fixed it up really homey. I took care of her for 5 years
before she got really sick and passed away in '92. I had no real job to fall back on then, so, at 50, I went to Lane Community College for a 2-year course in Medical Records and Transcription. I got the medical transcriptionist job at Sacred Heart Medical Center before I graduated (4.0). I have been in the same area and working with the same people for 5 1/2 years and really like it. I've been able to take extra courses in Excel, Access and PowerPoint that have helped me with extra projects. There are only 2 of us in the transcription office and we always have chocolate for the rest of the team. I work with an excellent team of social workers, therapists, psychologists and doctors who specialize in neurological "accidents", such as strokes, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputations, and all levels of paralysis. I am in the process of remodeling my kitchen. After my friend and I gutted it and discovered just how big the kitchen really is, we started building it one cabinet at a time, sort of plan it as I go. It's looking really nice, even without the countertop. I am looking forward to retirement so I can get some things done around the house and travel. |
