Well, right after school I moved to Miami to go to college at Johnson & Wales University. I spent one year there and came back to Ocala. I went back to school in '03 here in Ocala. I am not married yet but hope it is not too far in the future. Currently, I am working part-time at Bath & Body Works and I am a nanny for two families in town.
I currently live with my fiance, Curtis Mintrone (plan to wed on March 2, 2008).
After high school I went to college for a bit (Criminal Justice) and after a year decided to take time off to discover who I was. 6 years later I'm going back to school.
I'm a stay at home mother to my three beautiful children, Shaun (Aug '00), Trent (Sept '03) and Katrina (Oct '05) and married to the love of my life, Jason Meere. I still intend to go back to college one day and get started on the long road to becoming a Veterinarian. My husband has a degree in computer animation and is hoping to break into that field soon.
I've mostly been doing the family thing. I'm done having kids now, so when my youngest is older I'll be freed up to pursue my career. I still draw and do lots of reading. I've taught myself how to knit and crochet and I dabble in photography.

Memories:
I had a few friends that I miss but for the most part I really didn't like that place. Don't get me wrong…it was great because it was high school, but I can't stand Dunnellon as an area. So I guess my favorite memory of the time was high school itself.
Overseas is where I met my wife. She was a student from Orlando and all rest has been great. We got married in Nov. 2001 then decided to move closer. We are holding off on having children as of right now so we can enjoy our youth.
Well, shortly after high school, I decided I was going nowhere at record speed. I made a drastic decision to join the Marines. I spent some time in States then headed for Okinawa, Japan. While there, I traveled all over Asia. Uncle Sam has been great. I have been afforded the opportunity to see many places and live out of country for about 2 years. Currently, we are living in Kaneohe, Hawaii. Next we plan to move to North Carolina. It will be a while before I reside back in Dunnellon. Until then I hope to keep in touch with my close friends.
In April 2000, I met my husband and we got married in May 2001. Our daughter, Bailey, was born in January 2002 and our son, Isaiah, was born in April 2007 on the exact date my husband and I met 7 years prior with 3 minutes to spare.
I moved back to my hometown in Ohio in October of '98. I've been a homemaker for over 2 years. Life is great, and I'm loving it.
Chasing that all American dream for the most part.

I've been moving around more than the average person. I met my husband while I was in Jacksonville, Fl and I've been rooted to the St. Augustine area due to his business. We fought with the employees for 8 years trying to keep me out of the stress of the business, but a the time came when we had no choice. It's actually one of the best things we've done. He wishes we would have done it sooner, but the timing would have been wrong. We should be moving into our property in a couple months. Hopefully in May of 08' just in time for our first child (a boy)to arrive in early June 08'. So between home and a new baby, running the company, and playing landlord to the rental house and the commercial building I always have a good crazy story to share.

We have owned several businesses from subcontracting work to opening our own restaurant, all in Florida. Now we are involved in sales in North Georgia. We finally sold our house and left the sunshine state this year. I've seen and heard from a lot of people I went to high school with through other websites but I hope to hear from more people from Dunnellon, Yankeetown and Inglis.

One year after High School, I married my childhood sweetheart Joanna, whom I have known since she was 4 and I was 6. It's so nice being married to your best friend. No kids yet - but we do have a son - our 7 lb Yorkie Skippy. :-)
After school, I enrolled in a Surgical Technology program and worked as a surgical tech as I was going to nursing school. (I know - not too many males in that profession. :-) I have worked in the operating room continously, everywhere from major trauma centers like Grady Memorial to small outpatient single specialty centers. I thought at one point that I wanted to be a CEO of a health care facility, so after attaining a BS in Healthcare Administration, I ran an Orthpaedic Surgery Center as Clinical Director for 5 years. Then I served as Administrator for Marietta Plastic Surgery Center. After 6 years of healthcare management, a friend presented an opportunity to start up an Internet Service Company. We started Atlantic Nexus in 2003 and have been rated number one nationally in customer satisfaction since Feb 2006. I still work as an OR nurse to keep my skills up, but when I am not doing that I wear my techie hat and am having a blast with this little project.
Aside from work, my wife and I lead very active lives - Hip Hop Dance Class every Monday and Wednesday nights, and usually 30 to 40 miles of biking on the Silver Comet trail on the weekends.
