JoAnne's Story

Life Hi, this is JoAnne Lively (Davis). I am now retired from the Fed. Govt (how did we get old enough to retire??) I have two dogs, three cats, THREE granddaughters and a new grandson. Life is great - will be retiring to WV when I can get my husband to leave his daughter's baby! My husband is an electrician and we have been married 18 years. Went by the school the other day to see our Senior Blocks - THEY ARE GONE!!! I was so dissapointed. The school should have had a fundraiser to dig them up and sell them to us! School My biggest crush was for 5 years, he's on here, and he knows who he is!! Lynn Fritch was the teacher that inspired me most - she was an outstanding English teacher. I remember she had to wear a trench coat to keep people from knowing she was pregnant. My, how things have changed. Football games were a blast - we always had a good time - also cruising the Steak n Shakes, although ours on the OBT is now gone. Never was in the "in" crowd - they were a little snooty for my taste - had my own friends, they were MY crowd. Tried to drive my dad's old VW bug through the halls one day - we made it!!! If any of you all also went to Memorial Jr. High - those were my favorite school years! Cheerleading, "going steady" with a top football player, great friends and wonderful teachers. Years later, I dated one of them, but couldn't call him anything but "Mr" and his last name.......didn't last long! Own my great great grandparents' hom...Expand for more
eplace in WV and 30 acres - gonna be there soon. Love 4-wheeling, sightseeing and the country life. To have something to do after early retirement, I now have a part time job at Publix and love it. I get paid to talk to people!! Of course, everyone I work with is younger and they all come to me for advice (ha, ha) and to cry on my shoulder. I love them all. My daughter, Wendy is 38, has three kids and is a wonderful mother. She was named after "Wendy" in Peter Pan and is the light of my life. I am proud to know her. Please, all of you let me know what is going on in your lives - those were great years and I think of all of you often. I am a civil war nut and the craziest (one of the craziest!!) things I have done was go to Harper's Ferry to volunteer for four hours with the park service on a battlefield. It was a 900 mile trip and I loved it. I was even "wounded in battle" helping to clean up, clear and make improvements in the field. The local paper did a story about me, driving so far, getting hurt, it was great. I think I was reincarnated from that time period. However, my husband says once you've seen one battlefield, you've seen them all......hmmmmmm......so I tend to make these adventures alone. My favorite places in the US in addition to my farm in WV are Charleston, SC (another great adventure alone) and Gettysburg, PA. Went horseback riding on the battlefield at dusk - one of the highlights of my life (ok, so I'm a boring geek).
