I work for the Minnesota Department of Revenue, yes as a tax collector. I no longer do the nasty deed but make my employees do it! I have worked here for 13 years. I previously work for one year at the International Wolf Center but it was not challenging at all. I also had a 10 year stint at a local phone company Contel now known as Frontier. Not only do I work full time, I am a mother for 2 children, Melissa 25 and Brian 17, and a beautiful grand daughter Aiden age 3.. My husband use to own a Autobody repair shop but being self employeed is not a treat at all! He now works for a local furnace repair business. Living in Northern Minnesota, the furnace runs non stop!
I rescued a Vos Ekkie in October from a feed store that had no idea what they were doing. I will be getting my baby CAG in 2 weeks! I had previously rescued a U2, TAG, Scarlet and B&G. I was able to socialize them and found great homes for them. When my husband owned his business, the money was not there to keep the birds. When I rescued, I would pay for the birds to pull them from the homes and then would found good homes for them and only charged a minimal ($400) for the birds and cages. I also own a 10 year old Teneesee Walker horse and she is my first love. About 6 years ago, I was in a really bad accident and had a horse rear up and over on me. He shattered my pelvic ring and broke my hip. I spent 28 days in the hospital and have had too many surgeries since then to count. I currently own 4 dogs, 2 Australian Shepards and 2 Collies. I also have a foster collie in my home right now as I also help with the Minnesota Wisconsin Collie Rescue group.
Boy, writting this all down makes me wonder how I do it all! I guess my husband must really love me!
Oh yeah, I also have a salt water tank set up.
Whew............
