Early Married Life

I left off the stories at marrying my buddy Tim. We got married spring 1979 during AEA week my junior year. I was 16 and Tim was 19. Below is a copy of our wedding invitation and a copy of our vows that my dad typed on his manual typewritter.














We went to Birmingham in Tim's Cutlass Supreme Oldsmobile




Tim was a draftsman at Moretta Harrah Marble Quarry. We bought a second hand single wide mobile home (12x60). This is a copy of pay stub the week we married.




Below was my todo list my first week as Mrs. Timothy Green. (I was a very busy girl)HAHA.

Tim got a job in the finishing plant of the marble quarry and made plant foreman by age 22. I wanted a baby as soon as I graduated June 1980. I went to work at Russell Mills sewing plant that same month. My job was sewing sleeves in Tshirts. I got pregnant with Mickey in Feb. 1981 and got fired for low production sometime in May the same year. No one would hire me because I was pregnant so I drawed unemployment until after Mickey was born Nov. 1981. We decided for me to just stay home and be a housewife and mother. We did not have anything to speak of material wise but we loved each other and we loved our little Mickey.
