In a nutshell...I got married soon after graduating.
Having both parents pass away 4 months apart I'm sure
had something to do with that. Moved to Sonora,CA in
1981. Had my daughter Jenny in 1984. Got divorced in
1988. Remarried (I'm a little slow), kicked him to the
curb 1992. Are we having fun yet ? So, you know what
they say about third time being the charm. Thank god
it was true. Happily married to David for 16 years.
Lucky enough to have a second child without labor
(step daughter) Krysti. And along came Devon in 1995.
They are now 25, 19 and 14. We moved to Lexington,
Kentucky in 2003 for no apparent reason. Ended up with
thyroid cancer in 2005. Successful surgery and
treatment with Drs. David Slone and Kenneth Ain, both
University of Kentucky. Let's just say I love UK and
my HMO. Aha...apparent reason. October 19, 2006
everything stopped. I received news that my brother
Jerry had died from carbon monoxide poisoning. Life is
just not fair. Also bought a home in 2005 and had just
finished the bathroom from hell when hubby decides
it's time to move closer to family. Timing was a
little off. So...goodbye UK and, oh god, my HMO. We
arrived in Gardnerville,NV. 10 days ago. Hubby is
working for Douglas County Schools up at Zephyr Cove.
Outwardly, I am blissfully unemployed. Inwardly, not
so much. Lots of clinics, docs and dentists so I
shouldn't be idle for long. We have a beautiful house
and the schools are great and no cancer. So...glass is
half full...life is good. Am looking forward to future
reunions now that we live closer.
Take care

A new year and a new zip code. Two months after moving
to Nevada the school district decided in its infinite
wisdom to cut my husbands position. So we decided to
come full circle and come home to Sonora this past
October. Currently working for the Dept. of Social
Services but 02/01 will be back at my old job at the
Health Dept. Teenagers and birth control..gotta love
it !
Life is good....and will be even better when the
washer and dryer are out of storage !
Happy New Year !
