Sharon's Story
Life
I grew up in Hammond, for the most part, I first went Wilson Elementary for K & 1st grade. We moved into my grandma & grandpa's old house, then I went to Edison Elementary for 2nd to 8th grade. I have a younger sister named Joyce.
At Edison I had alot of fun hanging out with kids from my neighorhood and church. I sang in one of the choirs and was the accompanist for Girls Chorus.
During my teenage years I was very active in my church, went to Sunday School every week, sang in a choir, very active in the youth group, and Bible study. In the early 80's I turned Lutheran.
We got this cat and named him Peanuts from my dad's parents they owned a small farm in Dyer. Peanuts was very nice, but he was basically an outdoor cat and could he catch birds, mice and anything else he could hunt. He was a...Expand for more
white and blonde tabby. I was very, very, very, very sad when my mom and dad had to put to him down, because someone poisoned him. I really love cats and have had cats most of my life. I once had a Basset Hound named JB and could he take me for a walk.
After Edison, I attended Hammond Tech, Married my high school sweetheart, had a son named Robert after my dad and divorced after 13 years of marriage, because I found out he was cheating on me.
I went work in the retail industry at L.S. Aryes, I worked there for about year, and went to work in a factory in south Chicago.making alot better money, but I missed working with the public.
I like to go to dinner, taking walks, going to movies or watching DVD's at home, walking on the beach. I have alot of ideas for romance.
I'll write more later!!
