Employment
I work in an electrical wholesale house that my ex-husband and
I owned. We sold it 20 years ago, and I still work there. In
the early 1970s, I moved to Houston and worked for an oil
company two floors above George Bush Sr. He was my boss's
friend from Yale. Met lots of interesting people there. I
decided I needed to come home after a couple years. When I
did, I started working for Maupintour.
Hearth & Home
It's very hard to condense one's life in a paragraph, but here
goes. My pride and joy are my daughters. Casse, 32, is an
occupational therapist in Shawnee, Kan. She has two children
(my wonderful grandchildren), Kinley, who is 3, and Kael, 5
months. My other daughter, Erika, is 29 and a registered
dietitian. She also is working in the K.C. area and just got
married this past summer. Yeah...both are out of school and on
their own.
The Other Stuff
While at Maupintour, I traveled to Japan and caught the travel
bug. So I've been traveling whenever I could since then. Went
to Germany, England, Holland and Belgium with my daughters in
1992. We stayed in youth hostels with 30 other girls aged
14-18. A few years ago I went on a Caribbean cruise with a
group of high school friends, and last year I went to Italy
with three other classmates. Life's been good to me. I'm
happy and learning to live life as it comes.
My Memories of LHS
I remember fondly all the friends I made. Only wish I knew
more of you better. What a diverse group we've turned out to
be. |
