Catherine's Story
Life
Born - Catherine Louise Harris - in 1971 in the suburbs of Chicago. Moved to Rochester, MN in 1976. Moved to Lafayette, LA in 1982 (miserable 2 years, hated it there). Moved to Baton Rouge, LA in 1984. Still here.
Dated a bunch of freaks (and a couple of nice guys) - lived with an alcoholic (almost married him), moved in with an alcoholic (who discovered she is a lesbian), swore off guys all together & met my husband. I was teaching ballroom dance at the time. He was a student (very talented, too). He quit taking lessons so he could ask me out. We got married in August 2000.
We have our own house & 2 kitties - a 9 year old diabetic & a 3 year old hellion ("Miss Hiss"). We have no children. Both our fathers have passed away - both due to cancers. (God bless & keep them.)
UPDATE: The diabetic kitty died. We got a new kitten. My Grandmother died. My brother had a baby (Tom went to Broadmoor too - class '87) & I'm pregnant - due in May 2006.
UPDATE: My brother retired after 20 years with the US Navy. My Grandfather died. I had son #1 in May 2006 & son #2 in April 2008 (we are done having children).
School

d frankly, I wouldn't care much.
College
Graduated LSU with a Bacheloreat Degree in Interior Design (1994)
Workplace
1994-1996 Emerson Carpets & Interiors (Interior Decorator, Flooring Sales)
1996-1999 TC Dance Club International (Planning Specialist, Ballroom Dance Instructor)
1999-2001 Jo-Dink, Inc. (Research & Development, Vendor Liason, Website Consultant)
2001-2004 Always n Bloom (Wedding Planning Specialist & Consultant, Delivery & Setup)
I excel at detail-oriented work and enjoy planning, list making, & refining projects to perfection. I work well in many situations and get along with most people. I enjoy using my design background - it is remarkable sometimes how, unexpectedly, it comes in quite handy. I continue to build upon all of my previous training from school as well as each of my former employers. My creative and analytical approach plus attention to detail are superior in winning a customer's respect and confidence.
I am currently looking for employment (part time) because Always n Bloom has merged with another florist and my position is no longer available.
UPDATE: I am no longer looking for employment - I am happy being a full-time SAHM.
Military
Never served in our military, but I am tremendously grateful to all who have - especially those who've made sacrifices to keep America safe & free! Thank you!!
