Martine Olive

Martine Olive Baldwin, my precious, beautiful great grandmother, "granny," passed away February 24, 2012 at the age of 93. I wish I would have thought to ask her more questions or found out more about her life. What was life really like growing up in the 20's? But I do have many wonderful memories. She was the ideal granny. She was the perfect, loving, understanding, caring great grandmother. I will miss her so much, but I can't wait til I see her lovely face again in heaven.

Coming Home

This semester has been quite the roller coaster. I have decided I will not be attending the University of Tennessee next year. I will be back in Chattanooga, probably at Chattanooga State. Back at Charming Charlie. Back home. I'll really miss several people, and I will miss the excitement of being apart of this university. I was relieved at first. However, once I told Chris,  it began to set it how torn I am between staying and leaving. Chris was the reason I came, and will be what makes leaving the hardest. I feel like it is the best decision for me, even though I struggle with it daily. I don't like making these big girl decisions.
