Toni Kennedy - Biography
I
was raised by my mother and my grandmother. We lived
in Scottsbluff, Nebraska most of my life. I went to
school in Gering, Nebraska until my Sophomore year in
High School. At that time I went to Minatare High
School. There I participated in most of the activities
available to me, (Speech, Mock Trial, One Act Play,
Volleyball, Basketball, Track, FCA, FBLA, Peer-Ed, and
Cheerleading). I was an all around student. I
graduated fourth in my class. That is fourth out of
fifteen, ha ha.
After
graduation, I was married and moved to Kearney,
Nebraska. There I attended the University of Nebraska
at Kearney. There I started working at Idleman
Telemarketing Inc. (ITI). I worked there for about a
year when I was promoted to Team Leader. It was higher
pay and I didn't have to make phone calls every night
any more. I really enjoyed working there. The people
were a lot of fun.
In
January of 1999, Stephen and I moved to Lincoln,
Nebraska with our beautiful daughter Alexis. I was
able to transfer to the branch here, but I would have
to give up my TL position. After working for about
three weeks at the different facility I decided it was
time for me to focus on my family once again. So, I
decided to quit working for a while and stay at home
with my family. So far so good. We enjoy being
together in the evening where we can watch movies play
games or just be together doing our own things. This
is what I think a family is all about.
There have been many changes in my life over
the past year. I have re-found my faith and am on my
way with a good walk with Christ. I have finished
exploring the Word of God in its entirety. I have not
stopped reading the Word of God. I have found that the
more I read it the more I discover about myself and
what God has for me. It has been and is a wonderful
new world for me.
I have also gone back to work. My beautiful
daughter is about to start school and Stephen and I
thought now would be a good time to ease myself back
into the working world. I have once again joined a
telemarketing team. The pay is fair and I can set my
own hours. This is really nice for avoiding any
daycare expenses.
