NEWS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS TO MY FRIENDS
Hello to all, I am having a very busy summer and doing lots of babysitting so haven't been online here too much. When things quiet down I will get on more often.
Husband and I celebrated our 42nd anniversary in July of 2012.
ABOUT ME
I'm fairly quiet and easy to get along with. I married my high school sweetheart 45 years ago. We lived in Germany for a couple years as he was in the army. We have 1 girl & 3 boys. Also 12 grandchildren, age 21 down to 7 month. One grandson died at birth. I have 1 great granddaughter 2 yrs old.
Hubby & I owned & operated a mom & pop convenience store for 19 years before closing in '97. Hubby had another job and I did the running of the store.It was an old country store & did fairly well most of the time. Hubby retired 12 yrs ago & I got a part time job because I was bored. Before the store I worked for an insurance company. I have been the secretary for my Sunday School for the past 18 years. I am now retired.
I was raised in a rural setting on a dairy farm. I still live in a rural area to this day. My wonderful parents adopted me as a baby. Now they are both gone and I miss them a lot. My mom told me I had a half sister out there somewhere but we had no luck finding her since my state has sealed records. Maybe some day I will find her. I have 2 brothers older than me.
WHAT I LIKE
Animals, especially horses. My family & friends, reading, crocheting, traveling, photography & gardening. Playing with my grandchildren & shopping.
snobs..liars & cheaters..anyone who mistreats children & animals & the elderly...waiting in long lines at the checkout..to name a few. Snakes & deep water.
