What were you doing 10 years ago? 10 years ago I had finally made the commitment to live with my partner and her son age 13 or 14 depending on the time of the year. I was also going to school full time finishing my Bachelors Degree. I saw my children ages 15, 14, 14 at summer and had high phone bills talking to them. It had been 10 years since my mothers death. I had 12 years soberity.

Five years ago: The kids were 20, 19, 19,
The eldest was living in Reno for a change of pace, one twin was in San Diego living on her own with a roommate and the other on the east coast, building houses with Ameri-corps.(yes for those of you who notice these are Addicts children also)
I had finished my Masters degree and was teaching special ed. I was living with my partner and our son in San Diego.

What were you doing 1 year ago?. Eldest daughter just graduated college with honors, as is one twin, who just bought her first home, all alone at the age of 24. Other twin was working for a cruise line, and living back in Hawaii. My partner and I bought our first home in Modesto (just 3 months before the kid bought hers) and living with our 2 dogs (AKA the boys) I was teaching 2nd grade and loving being back in the classroom. Enjoying being close to family and still missing my own daughters terribly. the son is still in SD 21years of soberity
