mouth 0 #33 July 17, 2001 HI...I'm Lisa and I live in Middle Georgia. (Thus the accent!) I'm back in the one place I swore I would never come back to after living in and visiting some wonderful places all over. I will admit small town GA is a good place to raise children. Just lacking in the finer things of life...Like a DZ close, or a good restaurant, or men.Anyway, when I work I teach 6th grade, so I agree with the vacation time being wonderful and the pay being horrible.
