Deborah's Story

Life I was very fortunate to have been able to retire on Dec 1 2002 when the State offered early retirement. I had started working for the Dept of Revenue as a clerk on Nov 1, 1973 and retired as a Tax Specialist. Since graduating in 1972 I have been married and divorced twice, have 2 grown children and five grandchildren. I currently am babysitting my youngest grandson full time. I enjoy a number of activities, love nature, love backyard birding and flower gardening, camping and fishing and at one time in my life a few years ago I loved motorcycling. I owned my own Harley several years ago but it has been many years since I rode. If I had a lot more money I would travel as much as possible. There is a lot of places that I haven't been that I would be thrilled to visit. I most definitely want to visit Ireland in the next few years. I have dinner with friends regularly and am still friends with Laura Brincken(Carlove) whom I met in the 8th grade. People are always telling us that we look like sisters. I guess we're like an old married couple that begin to look alike ...Expand for more
after years together!!!! I joined the First United Methodist Church of Decatur in December 2007 and am trying to become as involved as possible by joining groups and volunteering. I would enjoy receiving email from you so feel free to do so anytime and I will respond. Thanks! On Aug.4 my beloved companion dog, Sadie passed away. It has been very sad at my house lately. No one there to wag her tail when I get home!! So I went to the local "no kill" shelter in Decatur and signed up as a volunteer. Wow, what a first day I had. I was asked to bring the dogs in from outside. The first dog I brought in was a 100 lb. female lab and she bolted as soon as I put on her leash and away I went. She nearly pulled my back out!!! I could barely hang onto her. I'm sure if I could have seen myself I would have had a great laugh! And then I got bit by two different cats, and a puppy scraped my arm with his super sharp nails and I had blood running down my arms. Yes, you guessed it. I will be going back. I am looking forward to it. I just hope I don't try and adopt them all!!!!
