Virginia's Story
I moved away from Pulaski HS at the end of my junior yr to Buffalo, NY.
I have longed to return to the city of my youth for years, but my travel has yet to bring me back. Perhaps soon. :)
Life gives us twists and turns and takes us in unexpected places. I have lived a good life.
I am blessed with 2 wonderful children and 7 grandchilden and a step-greatgrandson. My family is my greatest accomplishment.
Last Oct.(08) I was able to take an early retirement.
I spent the last 20 years employed with our major Trauma Center in Buffalo. I was clerical support in the Emergency room for 9 years. Every day of that 9 years I said "now I've seen everything"!!! It was an exciting way to earn a living (I could write a book)(Then someone would want to make a TV series....probably call it ER...make George Clooney the star...)oh well... but it took a toll on my blood pressure. I was able to finish my career at the hospital in the Medical Library. Another great job....!! wish I would have gone to college to become a librarian...today with the internet, however, librarians eventually are doomed to extinction.. :(
In the 70's and 80's I worked (too many) years at Nabisco. Some good times and then some not-so-good..Mostly uneventful...
...Expand for more
Currently, I am enjoying gardening, free concerts in the park, walking along the (Erie) canal and..... my sis-in-law (at 71) puts me to shame in the gym...working out 5 days a week!! She's on vacation now..and I told her I would keep it up...yeh...right!
Winters in Buffalo are tough..I bought a snow blower last year and learned how to use it!!!(5.5 HP) at Sears....gone are the days of shopping for crockpots and muffin tins...this girl now shops for pitch forks and anything Black and Decker. I turned in my Victoria Secret Charge for Home Depot.
I can fix a garbage disposal.....and take apart a drain.....Do you know how much plumbers make an hour???? Perhaps some of my former classmates are plumbers??
When it's too cold to venture out, I make DVD's from my photos and put them to music. I spend waaaaayyyy too much time on the computer.
I am an avid Buffalo Bills football and Sabres hockey fan. We NEVER say DIE here in Buffalo and always have great Hopes and expectations for the NEXT year when we don't make the playoffs (again)!!! The fresh smell of the crisp Fall air when the leaves are turning and it's Sunday afternoon is one of my MOST favorite experiences. I'm usually cooking up a batch of chile for Halftime. Yummy!!
