Dorothy's Story
Life
Well, if you are reading this, you must be trying to catch up, and since this is posted at Annandale's site, I will start from there! I moved back to Iowa from D.C. after freshman year (with my Dad's work). Graduated from Indianola H.S., then went onto Univ of Iowa. I lived on 8th floor Slater for 2 crazy years, then moved off campus, and managed to graduate on time...with 3 years in the athletic training room during this time, I am grateful I wasn't on the 5 yr plan. I had not a clue as to what I was going to do when i grew up at that point, so I went to grad school at Texas Tech ( I had a friend there, and her family..it really wasn't that random!) I managed to graduate with a MS in Sports Health, despite the temptation to quit after I got married to one of those dashing fly boys at Reese AFB, who had to go to training in Florida during my last semester. Whew. We moved from Texas to Florida to California, then Germany in the first 14 months of marriage, and I had my beautiful baby boy, Matt, during it all in 1986. I brushed up on my German to conversational level, and had a great time while we wer...Expand for more
e at Spangdahlem AFB. Travelled the countries, and had my beautiful baby girl, Lauren, while we were there...at a German hospital in 1989. (That's a great story.) We moved home at the end of 1990, and Marc was hired on with Delta after that. We moved to Cincinnati (on the Kentucky side of the river) , and I am still in the same house we moved into in 1990. Marc and I divorced, an unfortunate common story of people getting married under the throes of passion without knowing each other, and not growing together, either.
So, now I am in pharamaceutical sales, and loving it. I can actually make money talking?!! This is a perfect union of science and conversation. I had no idea I could find a job for which I am so perfectly suited.Other than that, I date occationally, but nothing long term as of this writing. I get out to see my family in Iowa, and catch an Iowa FB game, whenever I can. And I have turned my children into Rehoboth Beach junkies...they love it as much as I do.

Have a great day!
