Welcome to my personal Blog! My name is Emily. I am 40 years old, and I live in the Midwest of the USA. I am working part-time as a dental assistant and in school for a career change into Web-development and design.
I have a grown son who is now 22 years old. I also have a kitty named Kitty and she has been a wonderful loving pet to me especially when I was in my single years.
My Story…
I am a newlywed and just got married in June of 2023. Before that I spent a few years single and dating. In those years I spent allot of time alone learning more about myself, how to date and as much as I could about dating, men, relationships, communication, self care and the list goes on.
I watched hundreds of videos about dating and relationships and read countless articles and books and actually took notes because I decided this was going to be the last time I suffered heartbreak and had to start over in life because of a failed relationship.
A few months ago after learning some web design I decided I should make this whole notebook I have into a blog for women who are going through the dating process and dealing with the issues I was dealing with and offer some advice and maybe help some people.
Career and Life Path
I have spent my first 20 years working as a dental assistant. Like I said before, I was a very young mother and had to choose a career that didn’t require a long time in school. However, after those 20 years I am feeling very burnt out and need a new career path for this second half of my life. My dream is to be able to work remotely and snowbird so remote work is the best option for me.
My first lesson in school was learning web design which led me to experiment with making some simple websites. I still have allot to learn but I am off to a good start and this blog is my second project. I am learning allot on my own also outside of school and trying to restart a new career path.
Blogging
I wanted to start a blog to help people with love, dating and relationships and also blog about blogging and getting started with this new journey too. Surprisingly with a base knowledge of coding/ web development and design I have been able to put together this blog along with with a few other websites and I have found it to be pretty easy actually. I have started out just creating an account with BlueHost, which is an Independent Hosting company that hooks you up with your domain name and easy to WordPress themes. I chose BlueHost because they had great pricing, great value and it is so easy to use and set up for a newbie!
