Chris's Story

My story is pretty basic. Graduated in 1977, got married in 1980. Married a man who is older than me and had an 8 year old son. We had a daughter in 1983. Will be married 30 years in April of 2010. We have 3 grandchildren by our son, they are two boys 17 & 1 and a girl who is 13. My husband is a welder and fitter and I own the Bourbon Barrel Bar & Grill, with my sister Kim. My parents who are both deceased now owned the business before we did. They bought it in 1977 from the Daniels family who owned the Tollys Markets and Ben Franklin Stores. If any of your remember Tim, Todd, Mark or Tresne Daniels. I share my home with my husban, step-son, granddaughter and 3 dogs, which I find wonderful most of the time and sometimes overwhelming. My first job was at True Value Hardware, where I got paid be a cashier and sometimes work different departments helping customers to find what they needed. What I remember most about it is that it was a great part time job for high school. It sure beat working fast food restaurants!!. Patience. More from my grandchildren than my kids. I tell my kids all the time too bad...Expand for more
for them I wasn't a grandma first.I think I was a good Mom, but I'd be a great one now!! If I could improve my home, I'd remodel my kitchen and add on a second bathroom with a jacuzzi.. My dream home would be on the water somewhere. I don't think I have any obsessions other than trying to make sure my grandkids are as happy as they deserve to be. I do have 3 dogs that I'm crazy about. 2 labs (one yellow and 1 chocolate). Also a white German Sherpherd that we acquired from our granddaughter.He's a big baby. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is my Mom and my Dad, because I miss them every day.. My hero has always been my Mom. Even though she's been gone 11 years, I draw from what she taught me everyday. She was one of the most open minded, fair and compassionate people I've ever known. I try to be as good of a person as she was. If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have flexible hours, friendly work place, and hard working co-workers to be able to deal with the day-to-day. My favorite way to relax is to get a massage. If it's summer time I love to float in my pool in the sun.
