Alicia's Story

Catch 'em up on what you've done and who you are I've been married twice (the second time is the real deal) My first marriage was to an abusive alcholic whom I had 4 children with the second is to the most wonderful man in the world (sorry ladies I found him and I'm keeping him happy) Together we have 7 children and 5 grandchildren. I love being a mom, best thing I ever did was have beautiful children. I thankfully have been successful at what I do and live a very comfortable lifestyle. I have a very flexible job with a great team. My now husband is also a very successful business person and we compliment each other well. He is 20 years my senior and the Love of my Life. Unfortuneitly he has had some medical issues (several strokes the latest being in October of 2007) We have had lots and lots of money and we have at different times almost lost everything we had except for each other. We now live in Oak Park Illinois which is very close to Chicago. I moved to Illinois right after graduation with my parents and sisters and brothers. I'm into staying fit and healthy. I swim almost every day I lift weights 3 times a week. I attend dance classes (Ballet tap and jazz) 3-4 times a week and I walk my dog twice a day. I enjoy riding bikes with my sons and jogging with my daughters during the year except for winter time when we will spend time sking, sledding and occasionally snowmobiling. We try to eat healthy and organicly for the most part but we're not zelics. I try to live a green lifestyle but again we're not zelics. We do love our creature comforts. I am retiring this year from teaching religious education (my husband is requiring more time with me) however we as a family are still very involved with our church community. Twice a month we feed the homeless and help out at the homeless shelter. As well as the many charity drives our church is involved in. I'm a...Expand for more
lso an avid scrapbooker. It drives my kids nuts that I'm always with camara. I've always enjoyed reading and still do and thankfully it was something my children all picked up on as well. Doesn't matter what but I always have something that I'm reading sometimes just a romance, sometimes action or drama or mystery or even self help. My favorite place in the world is on a beach near an ocean. Thankfully Chicago has some great substitutions (Shedd's agarium North ave beach) My husband is great about making sure we spend couple time together and even through we've been married 12 years we still have a weekly date night, in the warmer weather usually both Friday and Saturday nights. He is a gambler and here in Illinois there is always something to do. We love to bet the ponies (harness racing is my personal favorite) and we have several gambling casinos in the area (craps and poker are my favorites). Every once in a while we'll skip out on the gambling and just enjoy one of Chicagos great Shows (I've always loved the theater). Were very lucky to live on the block that we do. Our neighbors are great and most evenings you'd find 4-5 families on the front porch just hanging out while the kids play, all times of the year. Next year I should be spending more time back in Michigan only a lot further north than where we went to highschool at, as my youngest daughter will start at Northern Michigan University in the fall. I always like going to Michigan. Well that's about it. I graduated, moved to Illinois, Married, had 4 kids, divorced, and Married again. All in all my life is very good! I do however miss seeing and staying in touch with all my highschool friends, espically friday night football games (my eldest son played while he was in highschool and I really missed everyone those years espically). Anyone reading this and remembers me please stay in touch. Hugs Alicia
