Robin Esley:  

Life Updated: My goodness, i just read my old profile and realized that much has change since then so it is time to update. I still live in Texas of course, 35 years this past August. What can I say, Texas is one of those places that you either love or hate and I fell in love with it and it's diversity from the day I landed here. My marital status has change since my last writing. Unfortunatly, it did not work out, although we are very good friends. I am still a Grandmother, but now 4 times. My son, Christopher, whom some of you knew as an infant, is now 32 and married to a beautiful young woman, Kayla...she has been a wonderful step mom to the two oldest of Chris's children, two sons( Isaiah and Jeremiah)...and an ideal mother to their daughter, (Ryleah). They are the great loves of my life. I bought the home of my dreams last year, ( nov. 2007), and was it was not too effected by the wrath of Ike. I can not say the same about myself. Ike has forever changed my life and my outlook on it. I had began a non profit organization last year and since the storm have put all of my efforts into trying in anyway possible to help those that were left with little or no hope after Ike took from them their sense of security, self, and hope or the future. I have enjoyed looking through the profiles of those of you who have filled them out and would encourage more of you to do so. I have found almost everyone that I had hoped to find when I signed on with classmates.com, except David Waters. He was a DE teacher up "on the hill" after it became part of NEHI. I would love to know more about all of you. I always wanted to be a performer when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a creative idea. As it turns out, they were right. I love to take a walk with my dog, and for the maximum relaxation ...i run to the mountains If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have purpose, creative outlet, and like minded employer to be able to deal with the day-to-day. my mother and my aunt Betty are truly my hero's. The things these women have done in their lives to care for their families and those in need...blow my mind. They had none of the opprotunities that most of us have had and yet they have the love and respect of all they touch. they amaze me. oprah too. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is sharon and tricha and dave waters, because the girls were my best friends and Dave Waters inspired me in ways that still affect me today.. i confess...I am a reality junkie...can't get enough of it....that and comedy....love good sitcoms ...and documentry If I could improve my home, I'd remodel to create a downstairs bedroom and add on a gazebo and pool house. My dream home would be in colorado. oh geez....what I have learned from my children is that I am so, so, imperfect,...but i do have the capacity to love in ways that are capable to hurt badly Which teacher would you love to see again? Dave Waters Why? He always listened and he gave me great advise and also tried to teach me to become accountable form my own actions.. I miss him so much. I would love to see Mr. Nesbit....but I would have him arrested. If I won $100 million, I'd give it to m...Expand for more
