Kate's Story

Life After High school I floundered around for a bit. Ran into Pat Crader 4years after high school Married him. We had 3 chidren who are now 21,20 and 17. 2 boys and 1 girl. We Divorced about 7 years ago. I work for Fredmeyers in University place near Tacoma. I am a Playland Attendant. I have a cat who is around 13 years old. My youngest son is in Iraq at the moment. My oldest son works at a computer store. My Daughter is still in high school. I am not as quite as I use to be. I have learned to be a bit more outgoing. I would love to see my 3rd grader teacher again she always made me feel good. When she read the class a story it was like she was reading it just to me. My desk was right up front and she stood there when she read the stories. I was in kindegarten when this happened I had my first kiss on the steps of the school this boy in the first grade came up and just planted one on me I was sooooooooo angry because I got teased about it. The first crush hmmmmmmm I believe that would be someone named Wes Thompson he was married I was 10 I think when he moved in the area. He was kind and his wife was a go-go dancer. that was when I discovered Aretha Franklin also. They where good friends of my mothers f...Expand for more
or years. They moved away and divorced. He remarried I ran into him as an adult years later and I still had a crush on him. He was a very handsome man all his life til his death I don't hink anyone will ever take his place to that dgree ever because of his personality. I would hope people would remeber me as kind and a bit funny with a sparkle in my eyes. I am happy with things today but if it where to be as happy as you can be that would be by helping people who have lost a loved one understand that they are around us. They are just hanging out on a differnt plane of exsistance. I hope that People find me amuzing. I do enjoy making people chorttle and at times shake thier heads. The thing I would do differently is Tell my mother I love her one more time. I don't know about the weirdest but the messiest was a dog grooming place that I worked at for 6 weeks to earn money to buy a chauaua dog I named badger. Loved that little guy. He drank coffee with me every morning. I lived in Pennsylvania for 6 months it was fun. We moved back here because my mother couldn't find work close by she was a nurse and we lived in a rural area miles from a big hospital. Well I guess thats all I have to share for now. Peace out
