Denise's Story
Hi ya'll!
Well, like everyone, like has been an adventure. I retired as a Georgia State Veterans Counselor in 2006 and loved my job KEEP READING
I loved my job because I got to work with heroes every day.
I lost my husband of 17 years at age 52 suddenly on 2/3/04. I finally decided life might be worth living about 3 years later and my best buddy dared me to put my profile on Match.com. Let me tell you, there are some nuts out there, BUT I met this wonderful guy named Jerry and we dated for a few years, bought a 40 ft motorhome, rented out both our houses and on December 15, 2010, we left.
so far, we have done 39 states and I fly home occasionally to check out my family. I was never blessed with children but have lots of niece and nephews and their kids whom I absolutely adore. As of this date in August of 2013, we are in Alabama and headed along the southern coast all the way to California for the winter. We plan to leave with about 35 other Rvers and drive 200 miles into a resort in Mexico and stay for about 4 months. I am really looking forward to it. We keep thinking about buying a place for the summer and one for the winter, but I'm not ready to stay anywhere that long. We have houses we have rented we could come back to, but I got ...Expand for more
a LONG bucket list to cross off. I used to be the bashful kid in school, but I am changing that. I have had gastric bypass and my looks are changing with it. Only darn thing is, where do you put all the excess skin??? It doesn't shrink up like it used to.
We still have our motorhome but have purchased a winterhome in Port Charlotte, Fl. just a few months ago and we love it here. Got a few little health problems to deal with and then we are taking off to California to see the wine country, go across Canada and to see the New England States we haven't seen yet. Then that takes the USA off my list and our next stop will be to stay a few months in Italy, England, Germamy, Caribeans, etc. There is still life in this old body yet!
Well, we had great time and as of April, 2017, we havr bought a summer home in Carrollton, Ga. I am blessed to still have my mom who is 88 and brotger and sisters wjo still live in Georgia. We have now done 44 states and keep hoping to go to Europe if all the terror attacks would stop so, I guess we will settle for a long cruise in the fall.
I hope you are all enjoying your journey in life and I hope we cross paths again many times! Would love to hear from you. My email is ladyga913 at that gmail place! lol
