Kathy Fricks:  

There is way too much to get into. I have no idea where to start. I worked at jobs from waitressing, to management, working with exotic animals (in management there too); did some commercials, educational videos for China on wildlife; some tv and cable shows; ran away and joined the circus when I was 35. Got bored and came back home. Worked at the Wildlife Park again for 5 more years. Tended bar at a Biker Bar for awhile and went back to school to get certified in Animal Health. Worked at Wright Patt Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio in their animal research department and ended up with a lung disease from the Navy pigeons (finally managing it well). Ran a company in the DFW, Texas area that sold aircraft parts. After my husband died of cancer, I left that job and took some time to myself. Now I work in the Bid Department for a traffic safety company as the Bid Coordinator. My department bids road construction jobs here in Texas and a few other states. We are also have a fabrication facility so we make all of our own traffic signs, small and large ones. Over the years I have added to my duties and have a larger customer base as well as selling more products than when I first started working here. Love to keep on learning and now train others so that we all have the knowledge needed to continue to build our department as the specifications are always changing. I am now a Grandma with two beautiful granddaughters. Of course, my daughter is beautiful too. Getting back out and enjoying life once again after years of taking care of my late husband for the 3 years he battled cancer. There is more, but I will save some for later. My hero was my Grandma Ruth. She taught me more than anyone ever did. Loved her dearly and really miss her... Sports..Go Cowboys and Mavs!!! Love football. No pets now. Reading. Lots of other things, hanging with my friends. My best friends are in a local band here and always draw a large crowd. So I try to see them whenever they are playing. My son-in-law is also in a band now and I try to see them as often as possible also. Love, love and more love! If I won $100 million, I'd give half of it to my daughter, Denise, then spend the rest on a private island, helicopter and cute cabana boy. My current age is 59. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be old and not wanting to get out and do anything. I was so completely wrong. I like the job that I have. One thing though, if I knew what I do now, I would have gone to school to be a Crimimal Pathologist. I love doing lab work and have done plenty of necropsies on all types of animals. I am a vet tech, certified in Animal Health, plus a Reiki Energy Healer, Master and Teacher... My best friend would tell you I'm a wild and crazy woman, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as someone who works hard, but always has time to get into some kind of trouble. Well, I normally dress in jeans, boots and it depends on what day of the week what kind of shirt I wear. Love wearing my boots, but have had to let them take a break for most of the year now.
