I have decided to put this blog together mostly because I am a picker and I love to pick and I dabble in everything but I am not really serious about anything. I just do it all. I do this because I love to make money and take care of myself however I don't love working for someone else, and my life does not allow me to leave it for extended periods of time.
Anthony is my son. He graduated from Victor Central High School. He went to boces his 11th and 12th year for computer classes and graduated nearly top in his class. However he was not sure computers was where he wanted to spend the rest of his life. So he put off going to college for a years (which turned into two). However he has decided to to return to school next year and will be taking computer science.
Steve Irish is my husband / boyfriend, and I have something with him that I am pretty sure is hard to find. He never walks by me setting in my chair without bending over and giving me a kiss, and he never tries to change who I am, he simply walks hand and hand with me encouraging me the whole way. He is the highlight of my day and he is the best part of who I am. However Steve has epilepsy which means he can not work. In fact Steve can have as many as 6 seizures in one day with these seizures he as little to complete loss of reality and they also affect his memory so when he has a lot in one day he could loose whole days of time. When Steve is not having a seizure you would not know there was anything wrong with him, he is smart, active, and fun to be around. However when I met Steve they was considering the possibility that they may need to put him into a half way house just because there was no one there for the time of the seizure, and all of his family lived out of state. Steve'e epilepsy was started as a effect of a head injury he obtained when we was younger. This was a decision I knew I was making I was going to spend the rest of my life broke because my husband was disabled and I needed to be there for him just in case.
I vowed although Steve does get his disability every month that I would not let this problem push me to the welfare lines. To me disability is a fair shake for a hard working american that puts into that system is who gets it and Steve worked for years as a mechanic and earned his right to that money. However a well being person collecting food stamps, and welfare money to me is a gross misuse of our government and a slap in the face to hard working Americans all over.
This is why I am a picker because working a full time job for somebody else is not going to work. However I can work for me and put dinner on the table. If I never profit more then dinner each day then my family will not go hungry tonight, that is my focus right now. Oh don't get me wrong I am building this blog to bring it all together so everyone can see why I am Picker Liz and what my next goal is in being a picker.
Don't think because I was forced into this position in my life that I am unhappy with it because I am not in fact I feel like for the first time in a long time I have found my spot here in my community, and many people are starting to learn who we are and rewarding us for working hard as a family. So with that said I decided I needed to make my space on the web so people world wide can get a feel of who we are and maybe just maybe they will reward us as well for our hard work. With my web based stores. Like I said Picker Liz
