Sheena's Story

My name was Sheena Carter, until my last year in HS, when I took my mothers new last name, La France. You may remember me by my former name. My name is now Beauchamp. We lived in So. Calif until l976. Moved to get away from the crowds, and violence. I live in the Ozarks of SW Missouri, where it is beautiful. I have never regretted the move. I raised my kids here, which was a smart decision. I married a former classmate and we had 2 sons Grant 33 and Nolan 31, and were divorced after 11 years. Remarried , to Gene , 23 years ago and raised his 2 kids as well, Dave 40 and Michelle 37 Still married and so far so good. We have 3 grandkids. We love to travel and cruise and take frequent vacations. My husband retired last year and we are doing a lot more traveling and family time. I stayed home about 5 years with my kids when they were little, until they were in school full time. I worked as a bank teller, and loan assistant, then a legal secretary, and then in a finance company doing real estate loan work. I was a full time bookkeeper for a while I moved to Missouri and became a DEPUTY sheriff for a while, before my first son was born, that was interesting. . I also did the dept bookkeeping and dispatching while I was pregnant. I quit after Grant was born after a few late night trips to breakup a bar brawl with women involved or having to be gone to transport a women across state. I went to work at a Hospital as the Ward Secretary in the Emergency Room for a couple of years, that ruined my health and I quit .. Went back to work as a Ward Secretary in Endocrinology and Metabolism unit for several years, where I met and married my husband, and he suggested I quit, I jumped at the chance. I spent lots of "kid time" doing the obligatory mom taxi duties, attending school functions, room mother, volunteered at the school, class trips, clubs, contests, etc. for 4 kids. My 2 were in a gifted school, so they needed transportation, which the school didn't provi...Expand for more
de. His 2 were in sports. I got to do that in with all the other running. All you moms know what I mean. I owned a LaundryMat and a Beauty Salon and a Video Store for a while, while I was working at the Hosp, during the time of my divorce. This supplemented my income and got me started in real estate investments. I didn't work at the properties, just owned them. My husband got involved because of me. I worked in direct sales for Avon for 13 years and was a top seller, I also owned and operated an Avon store at the Mall for a while, had great sales, but too much stress, and too hard to keep and train employees. I closed the store and continued to sell another 3 years and one day just decided to quit. Now I stay home and manage our accounts for our properties , leasing and owner financing and sales. Somewhere during all that I managed to take some classes, get a Real Estate License, and an Insurance License, took classes in banking and finance, as well as art and music and health care. I sang in different groups, choirs, opera, little theater etc, during all this, also weddings, funerals, and special events. and do my art, such as stained glass, pottery, painting, etc. and still do. Life has been varied and interesting . Not all of it has been easy, but it's all worth it. When things were a little crazy, like during my divorce God was always there to hold me up and pull me through, and I thank Him every day for that. I spend as much time as allowed on my singing and arts, and of course, photography. I can't leave home without at least one camera. I also am head of a Red Hat group and we get out and do things every other week. I didn't really realize I had been that busy, or done so many things until I wrote it down. I have certainly enjoyed the time I have spent thus far on CM and the wonderful people on this site. Thanks for the friendship. Hope this wasn't boring. I felt like sharing a little more about my life and family since I have met some of you.
