Colleen's Story

Life I was married for 25 years to my high school sweetheart. Now I'm married to a man that has shown me a different deeper kind of love. I've enjoyed every part of my life, the good along with the bad. I feel it makes me who I am today. I enjoy my family along with my new family and wish I had them all around more. I guess that's one thing I do miss is haveing kids around. So I now try to travel as much as possible. Like to see the new sights and the history that I seemed to have slept through in school. Instead of being a stay at home mom, I'm now a stay at home daughter. I've been taking care of my mother for the past 6 years. What a trip, the house I couldn't wait to get out of in my teens is right back where I am today. A little variation to the house. It caught fire in 06 so it's been rebuilt. I watched it being built when I was 3 with a few memories. When it was being rebuilt in 06 it brought back some deep hidden memories. It does seems for now my life has made a full circle to right back where my earliest memories are. I still travel as much as possible and have reconnected with a few of my old friends from Hug. 3 of them were very important people in my life back then and it seems that time stood still when we either see each other or call,write, or what ever connections we make. I'm sure there is more to come in my life. Every bit of it has been an adventure and a learning lesson. Some of them very hard to take and way too many at a very young age. I still look forward to each trip I get to make no matter where it takes me. And meeting new people or finding old...Expand for more
friends. I now watch my grandchildren struggling with some of the same things that I faced myself as a teenager. I can only hope that in some cases they use better sence than I did. But on the same hand I do so hope that they too enjoy their journey through life and learn as they go. I know my chidren have and are still learning as their children teach them. I'd have to say my maternal grandparents played a very important part in my life. Even though I didn't know it until it was too late, they played a huge part in who I am today. I thank them so very much for all of their love and care! As of Sept. of 2012, my journey with my mother ceased. She passed and is no longer in any kind of pain or confusion. It was a long 8 years in raising her as I called it, but as with everything else, it was a learning process. That very same month I became a great-grandmother. I call him my step-step-great-grandson. My husband and me have a total of 6 children, 14 grandchildren and the 1 great-grandson. 2 of our grandchildren or step-kids to my husbands kids. So our grandchildren range fro 23 to 2 and with the new little one we've got a pretty good size family. Again I wish they were all closer, but the Internet Highway makes them seem closer. My 2 oldest grandson are considering the military. The oldest one is joining the Navy. There was a paper snafu, but that shouldn't take too long. The next is considering the Guard or Reserves. All in all, I've had a pretty good life. Can't wait to see what the next part of it is going to be like. Hopefully easier lessons in life and lots of traveling.
