Two different lives It seemed like it was OK, and then you’d go to work during the week and you’d be like ‘Oh my god, that wasn’t OK. Cooksey said. “And then you’d come to the weekend and it was like, OK, you get drunk and end up doing it again.
“All of a sudden it becomes a lifestyle without you even knowing. The next thing you know . you’re living two different lives.”
Cooksey moved to Detroit Lakes from Hillsboro, N.D., in 2010. She had a new job as a hairstylist at Regis in Washington Square Mall.
