Charlene's Story
Life
Hello, fellow classmates of Marshalltown High School. It's been a long time since 1960 and graduation. I was married to Ken Burnett from our class and we have 2 children (now adults) Kyle is 40 and Kendra is 36. We have 4 grandchildren: Connor, Desiree, Hannah, and Kyra. Ken and I are divorced & he lives with his wife & family in Texas. I married Marvin Schellenberg from Nebraska in 1976. We have no children-just a Shih Tzu named Gabby Girl. I sell real estate for Coldwell Banker Gundaker and have for 24 yrs. Marvin is semi-retired. I'm known as Super Fan Char for the Rams NFL football team (kinda like a mascot). Have ram's horns & whole outfit-pretty funny. The whole team, coaches, staff, etc. know me and I do some charitable work for them. This keeps me busy! I've been trained in relocation for real estate so let me know if you are moving to Missouri. Hope all are doing well. Anxious to hear from you. My maiden name is Lindsey and how many of you will remember me. Very shy girl with little personality - WOW! How that has changed. Time flies!!! Still have friends and family in Marshalltown. Just don't get home often. Update 11/27/07: will have a total left knee replacement on Dec. 3, 2007, at Missouri Baptist Hospital in St. Louis. Now have both knees replaced and surgery on both feet in 2008. Full of titanium and now known as bionic char! Bonded with Rams football player, D'Marco Farr, in 1995 when Rams moved to St.Louis from L.A. We have been great friends. He is back in St. Louis working for the Rams as a radio announcer, etc. I now wear his #75 jersey with Char Farr on the back!!! He loves this. Yes, I know Steven Jackson, Trent Green, Kurt Warner, Marc Bulger, Joe Buck, and all the wives and staff at Rams Park. Oh yes, and Marshall Faulk. Great football player no longer playing. However, off the field, he is another type person. One I'm sure many of you would not like. We have had words!!! I don't bow down to any of the "stars" when they copp...Expand for more
an attitude with me!! They respect me more than other, too. They all need a reality check once in awhile. Team player and wives call me, " Moma EWE" or "Moma Ram". Well, my son just called and he is in "melt-down". His girl just left him and has been dating another guy!!!! My grandson, Connor, will be 13 on Dec. 21, 2008. He is having "bully" problems in his middle school here. The kids pick on him often. Geez - he is not a small kid, either, but won't defend himself. What to do??? Any suggestions accepted.
Well, Happy 2009!! Trying to remember to change the year!. Cold here in St. Louis - 60 deg. one day and 24 deg. the next w/windchill of -2 deg. below!!
See that many of our classmates have passed on-makes me realize that we are getting older!!!. The real estate business is very slow so I'm looking for another way to bring some extra income into the home. Not easy!!! All seems to be well with us and our family beginning this year. My daughter in Kelso, WA. is filing for bankruptcy!! Her hours have been cut back that she cannot make her payments on the house or her cars and other bills. So sad - this is happening to many others. Sure hope that Obama has some "fixes" that will work rather fast. So many changes will be made this year of 2009. Exciting and fearful. Want to wish you a very Happy New Year 2009. May God bless and keep you and yours.
Ah, now it is March of 2009. Life is okay - better than alternative! Joined CURVES. Second time, if slid onto one of the seats to a machine and slid off onto the floor. We all laughed but I racked up my lower back and neck. Chiropractor took care of same and I can now move again. Told the owner of the franchise here that she needs to order me velcro workout pants and add velcro to the seats!!! Pretty funny!!
Real estate picking up a little - hope to list my neighbors home here. Give me a little more money. Trying to build up money lost in this stock market debaucle. Hope all are well.
Make it a great day and enjoy!!!
