And so my journey continues…In November of 1998, II received my "pink slip" after working in the same place for 16 years! I went from $2200 a month to $800 on unemployment with no solid prospects in sight. I just can't walk into a place & get a job! You know us blind peeps, we have NEEDS! We need STUFF to help us with simple tasks, expensive stuff and employers really don't want to deal with that. I thought about waitressing, but gave that up because they kept moving the furniture! I'm kidding about the waitressing! I did what any determined woman would do and I applied for any job I even remotely qualified for!  What haunted me though was the BIG IF…If we had only built our business….
