Carol O'Mara:  

Here are some really great moments in my life that I'd like to share. After High School, Jackie Worth and I shared an apartment while we both worked at McDonald's...those were the good old days!!! Virginia Slims cured both of us from ever smoking...LOL The love of working and being independed served me well...as I went on to college then into the professional medical field of Pharmacy. Which I worked at for just over 25 years before retiring in 2003. During those years I raised a family, became a pretty good fishing and camping woman...with dreams of always wanting that cabin in the middle of the woods. I competed all over the state of Washington as a Archery 3-D, no sights, no releases shooter. I have several trophy's out in the garage. I just recently have taken my bow out of retirement, wiped it off and have gotten a bow for my grandson. It's time for another adventure in both of our lives. I'm going to show him how the Indains did it back in the day. Hopefully he will enjoy Archery as much as his grandma did and does. I became an Aunt 4 times before I ever became a mother. I became a mother on October 1, 1979 at 10:51 a.m. to a beautiful baby boy...the love of my life! My son and his wife have made me a proud grandma to 4 extremely beautiful and wonderful grandchildren. On Feb. 9, 2007, I learned that children are angels sent to teach us valuable lessons in life. My grandson, just barely 4 years old had brain surgery to remove a tumor the size of a small orange. He is now in 2nd grade, so smart and talented and such a loving soul. Still carrying part of the tumor that the surgeons couldn't get too. And even though he is on medications and shots for the rest of his life...I have come to realize that he has so much strenght and trust and wisdom... for which has taught me to love a little deeper, care a lot more and listen a little closer. ...Expand for more
