Sandra's Story
I'm living in Seal Beach. I'm retired from County government service. I went back to college at night school and in 1996 received my B.A. degree in Sociology and Criminal Justice (did a double major).
Now that I'm retired I enjoy reading, going for long walks, working out at the gym, swimming, attending lectures and classes, conversation with friends over lunch or dinner,reading, playing Texas Hold Em poker, watching movies andmy favorite programs on cable tv, occasional travel and play the slot machines occasionally.
Forgot to mention that in 1976 I gave up drinking and that other "stuff" that was popular in the late 60s, early 70s and I started attending A.A. meetings. Have been sober A.A. member for 31 years.
As it has evolved over years I do enjoy living alone (with my ...Expand for more
cat) and at this point in my life am more interested in developing good friendships.
Currently I am living in a retirement community and am serving on the equivalent of a home owners association board, which is a volunteer position. I would prefer not doing it but there's very entrenched powers here that are operating out of synch (spelling?) with the law. Because of the unique type of community it is they feel they're entitled to operate they way they have for many years before some of the laws were enacted. I don't agree and am not able or willing to sell and move so I'm trying to make a positive contribution as best I can for now.
Life isn't always the way we would like it to be, it is the way it is and my job is the play the hand I'm dealt as best I can. It is what it is.
