She had been orphaned at an early age, was tired of the foster home gambit and abuse, so she struck a deal with her social worker to live on her own as long as she had a job where she could go to school. Dallas back in the 80's didn't have much in the way of middle of the night office work, so she took a job she could do. She had her own apartment and a new Corvette. When she graduated, she had a scholarship and left her earlier life behind. Sometimes people have to choose to survive on their own.Ellen Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02845981491726296767noreply@blogger.com
