Kelly's Story
Life
For all of you who remember me - my family left Ohio in 1983 and moved to West Virginia so my father could further his career in the oil and gas field. I was going into the 9th grade and hated the fact of leaving. After moving and getting familiar with everything new, I began playing sports, basketball and track. Completely changed my body and attitude.
I am the 4th child in our family and all the independence must have gotten trapped in me. By the time I was 16, I was ready to be on my own and did. Needless to say, I missed out on scholarships for my academic achievements but learned about life really EARLY!! Began working and continued school, after graduating I moved to Myrtle Beach. I was in South Carolina for 5 years then moved back to West by God. There are a lot of stories and details for those 10 years right there, like going to Atlanta and staying with Jeff Shamblin and Brett Ashley for a few months and reconnecting with my friend Jennifer Taylor, who still resides in that kickass city, also going to California and staying with Todd Armstead and Mike Layne for a short amount of time. If you ask, I'd be happy to share my memories.
In 1992, after returning to WV, I met the man I thought was the man of my dreams so I married him in 1997 and divorced shortly after the millenium. We didn't...Expand for more
have any real dilemmas but he had 2 children from a previous marriage and decided he did not want anymore. That decision caused us to grow apart and the end result was not staying together because I love children and always planned on having my own in this life. I haven't remarried but I now have 2 children, just never dreamed I would end up with twins. A boy, Zahne and a girl, Zohie.
I now live in Charleston, WV and most of the work I do is from home. I am a business organizer, specializing in Quickbooks accounting software, and am currently doing the books for several different companies in town.
I love NASCAR, especially when I get the opportunity to go and enjoy the races LIVE!! Being a Picses, I love the water so I trained on the exciting Lower Gauley River and spectacular New River and became a Whitewater Rafting Guide. What an experience!! I enjoy traveling and being the adventure seeker, so we'll see what comes up for me in the future.
I believe 'things' happen for a reason and my personal quote is this, "Dance like noone is watching - live life today, yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not promised." I remember most of you, and would love to reconnect if your time allows it, so write me and we'll talk.
