Ruth's Story
Life
I celebrated my 25th Wedding Anniversary in February! My husband is Chris French who graduated from Eldorado High School. I have two beautiful kids, Madison (22 and an Elementary Education major at UNM) and Dylan (18 and just graduated from Volcano Vista School with a UNM Scholar's Scholarship to UNM for the fall). Soon to be empty nesters and both excited and scared of the idea! Actually we've been quite blessed with two great kids and not too much drama.
I lost my job over several years ago when the economy took a nosedive and couldn't find a decent job to save my life so I made a huge change in my life and decided to go back to school!!! Been a really tough road for me! Although I got a certificate in ElectroMechanical Drafting in 82...Expand for more
from T-VI before it was a Community College and called CNM (I therefore did not get a degree for my efforts) and I'd take multiple classes here and there throughout the years, it has been one of the toughest things I've ever done in my life!!! The plan is to get a degree before I die if it's meant going to school with my kids to do so. I was a freshman at 50 years of age and will finally get an associate's degree at the age of 52!!!! Never too late to learn, right? My major is Surgical and I'm beginning the program now in the Summer of 2011 and it should take me till the Summer of 2012 to finish! Wish me luck!
Would love to hear from former classmates! Interested to hear how and what everyone is up to these days! Drop me a line sometime!
