Lynn's Story

Life i met my spouse thru a friend. but My Pets are my life and carreer. i have a choclate lab and 20 horses. my husband and i breed quarter horses and paint horses. being afraid of animals as a kid, this was quite an accomplishment for me. my daughter graduated college in 99' and was married in november of 2001. i also have 3 step children, 2 have finished college, and the oldest has taken a break from his studies. i would love to hear from old friends from ORIOLE PARK BRANCH school. i live in northwest illinois and have a very happy life. that's it for now! hope to hear from you!........ update--=04-20-08 i am currently on what is known in the horse breeding world as, "foal watch". this consists of checking your expectant mare every few hours so you are available for help if she (your mare) needs you or the vet. usually things go smoothly, but after waiting the length of their pregnancy, 11 months, you don't want to take any chances. there is nothing to compare to watching your mare's baby being born! if anyone wants to hear more about it, i have 3 due within the next month or 2. when it gets really close i have to get up several times a night, so you might see me on the internet at odd times! thought i would add to this: i just became a grandma for the first time, how exciting!!! my daughter and her husband just had a baby girl!!! update-my grandaughter, mia, is now two and a half years old! how time flies. of course she is the smartest most beautiful grandchild ever!!!!:) i couldn't be more thrilled!!! new subject: if anyone know's debbie alberti, or linda belloumini, kim stemweddle and or anyone from the 1970 o.p.branch, i would love to contact them or hear from them. in fact i would love to hear from anyone from the 1969 or 1970 o.p.branch; we were a small group so i would love to chat. update: lynnie p.s. up until 1989 my life was a total mess and it sucked. then i grew up! it is much better now except for the fact i may soon be filing for divorce after 17 years of marriage. this will be very difficult for me. i do not take change well. i only hope i can stay on my horse farm with two or three of my horses. i am not ready to get another dog, i'm still grieving over my lab. boy i sound like debbie downer!!! i better close now. later dudes update 5-2010 lost oldest stepson to an accidental pain med overdose...to sad to say more about... my husband and i have managed to work things out now for the last 2 years or so...although he is unfortunately not been well in about 3 years... still no new dog...to busy going back and forth to chg to commit to that right now..also burned out my shoulder and i need surgery...correction, have needed surgery for torn rotater cuff and bone spurs...very painful!!!, but i have been putting it off for about 2 or 3 years cause i am too busy to take the time off! no more foals for now! and i am down to 16 horses...3 are living elsewhere on a training farm for the show circut... we do not show but these three 3 year olds are turning out to be show material! should be pretty exciting to see how they do...if well it would make th...Expand for more
e one that is a stallion worth lots in breeding fees! the 2 fillies (one black and white, and one black) are equally beautiful! i do have a new grandson 9 months old!! another cute grandchild!!! he is just got over a broken leg from rolling off the bed! he is thank god, fine now cast off and all!!! his big sister is now 4 and is still adorable, correction even more adorable! love the grandbabies!!! though nothing can replace my dog, correction, best friend ever!!! still missing my bosco, (my chocolate lab)...he has been gone now for 2 years in april. i did buy myself consolation gift about 2 years ago...a 2006 jag xkr!!! my dream car...love love love it!!! it makes the ride back and forth to chg. go a lot faster! :) that is it for now happy mother's day everyone! lynnie update: i am recently widowed...i hung in there and helped my husband to the end, which was 11-5-10. i am nothing if not loyal. i recently have been diagnosed with cancer and would use all the prayers and positive thoughts possible. things are about to change... i do have 2 beautiful grandchildren 1 little boy 21months and a 5 and 1/2 year old litttle girl...my daughter and they are my life...along with a very wonderful sister and 4 fabulous nieces and 1 grandnephew from my oldest niece. who i think of as my grandson also! so anyway i am still on the farm now with 12 horses and i am currently living most of my time in chg in order to take my treatments. ( keep a positive thought lynn!) i am sure it is not going to be an easy journey but i really have no choice. unless i want to just quit and i am no quiter! later dudes update--5-10-13 hello all, happy to say i am still on this amazing journey called life! i have been in remission for almost 2 years...my last chemo/radiation was the end of july 2011. i'm a survivor!, and would like to try to be in chg for the june 2nd survivor walk in grant pk. i'm still on the farm and am now down to 5 horses and one adorable chocolate lab that has just turned 1year old in mid march... i am so looking forward to warmer weather!!! myself, my daughter and grandchildren and son-in-law just went to ohio states' grad this past weekend to attend my nieces graduation. she got her doctors of phylosophy and her thing is linguistics. unfortunately she will be moving to L.A. in august to teach and her and her husband are due to have a baby first week in june. needless to say my sister, cathy and i are not too happy about her going to live so far from us. Obama spoke at the grad and was given an honorary degree at the ceremony. it was quite long with 10,000.00 grads of which 6500 attended. but my sister and i were so proud of her that we endured! Well, thats it for now...and, Happy Mother's Day to all! oh and i almost forgot, my daughter and i are going to see the stones this month in chg!!! still love the stones and most all music!, except jazz...oh well take care everyone and i will try to post a more recent pic! the one that is there now was taken i think in the year 2010, before the cancer diagnosis changed me forever~ but it also made me a more appreciative person for this life. thats it, lynnie
