Cathy's Story
Life....January, 20, 2008
Hi! I have two sons, 24 and 20 and a 3 months grandbaby boy. I have one soon to be daughter-in-law also. I married Mike and recently moved from Moorpark, CA to Virginia Beach, VA. It's today my first day of Virginia Beach snow. It doesn't snow much here...just enough.
Life story before now...became a hairdresser out of high school, married in 1980...got my AA while working in 82, first son came 7/83...up until then I was still a hairdresser. When he was two I did some word processing work. Shawn came 9/87...I was home till he was two and then worked as a full time word processor at JD Power & Assoc. They had a tuition program that I couldn't pass up on. I received my bachelor's degree in Computer Science in 1996, but before that, in 1994, my divorce was finalized (those who know me, know the story). I worked as a programmer up until August, 2004 when my company of six years was cutting back and cut 10 employees...I was one of them.
In July of that year I'd entered a contest at Y a h o o! P e r s o n a l s for their Real People 2005 contest and won. I was one of 18 in our age group from the 60 that won out of 75K that entered the contest. I had a blast modeling. It's something that I'd always wanted to do. This is where...Expand for more
I met my new husband. If not for Y a h o o! modeling, I'd not had met Mike and be living here in Virginia.
In November, 2004, I decided along with everyone else to try Real Estate and did that as my primary occupation till October, 2005. I sold 2 big ticket homes while I had my license active. I decided to go back to programming as being in Sales was not for me.
During that time, my new husband and I broke up for a year after 7 months of bi-coastal dating from 5/05 to 5/06 (my decision based only on the fact that I was tired of traveling and was not yet ready to move) We met up again though in New York City on Memorial Day weekend, 2006 during his Navy Fleet Week. He proposed 12/26/06...we were married at the beach in Channel Islands April 7, 2007 and I moved here May, 6, 2007. He deployed the end of July, 2007. Since then I've been learning about my new Virginia Beach home...excitingly awaiting his soon to be homecoming.
My son Shawn and his ex-fiance drove cross country with me, but moved back to California after only a couple of months here. They have a new baby boy, so I'm a remote grandma. My older son Michael and his fiance live in Pennsylvania and are planning their wedding.
So...there you have it...my life with a bunch left out....
