Caryn's Story
Life:
Married 20+. 4 kids. 2 grandkids. Love my dogs! (Boxers) We've moved around alot over our first 12 years together, and now have stayed put the past 12 in Massachusetts. I do miss CALIFORNIA, but would never live there again, unless...PISMO. :) We are getting to know NORTH CAROLINA, and so far, it’s awesome! Might even become our empty nest spot.
So about me...I changed career paths from being a corporate chick in Finance & Accounting in up & coming dot-com companies, to a Stay At Home Mum. And quite frankly, it’s the hardest role I've ever filled. Much more difficult than I ever would have imagined...for many reasons more than just the obvious. But, even though I miss being out there In the hustle bustle of corporate life, I do love being with my small clan!
The Kids: our 28 yr old Oakley, is now a father of 2. Our 18 year old, Brinna (pronounced Brr-IN-Ahh) just graduated HS this June of 2021, with Straight A’s! Ceara, 16, (pronounced like K-Ear-Ahh) is starting her Jr year. Our youngest...Expand for more
one, Finnian, is starting 9th grade. I tell ya...He's keeps me on my toes, and scrambling to even stay standing and keep up. :) Shawn is doing IT for the past 20+ years, and loves getting out on the trails on a mountain bike whenever he can. My dogs are my sweeties. Can’t imagine a life without their love and companionship. I love them so much!
The incredibly fun 20th reunion in 06, spearheaded by Tammy Vido Melton and amazing team, made me nostalgic, and curious of the paths you all have taken. I know there is a 35th reunion in the works for this October, but unfortunately, I can’t make it out to Cali this fall. Hope all who make it have a great time!
For any WHS classmates, or old friends and acquaintances that were in other classes or schools....please drop me a line. For another way to connect with me, I'm found at the G mail, kitty.to.caryn, or Snapchat as kittytocaryn, so say hi. :)
I only seem to get on here like every few years. Take care out there wherever you’re living your life.
