Introducing Sandi

My name is Sandi.  I am 34 years old and raising a sweet 7 year old daughter.  I served for almost 12 years in the Army National Guard, 9 years of which were spent working full time for the military.  I loved it.  I felt like I had found my place in life.  Unfortunately, a deep depression set in, and I soon found myself (honorably) discharged.  I felt lost without my long time career.  Then a couple of years ago, I had to move in with family.  After a year and a half of working in a job that was not so suitable for me, I found out what sort of benefits I could use through the Veterans Affairs (VA), and now I am using my GI Bill for schooling.  Currently I am in school to earn my degree as an administrative professional.  I am also performing duties as a work study assistant at my local Veterans Service Office.  I think I may have once again found my calling.  I always loved serving my soldiers and now, serving veterans and their families.  This is my personal blog.  Keep an eye out as I will be posting over the next couple of days on topics having to do with my transition from soldier to civilian.
