Sandra's Story

I'm trying to locate classmates for our 50th reunion. It will be Sept 23 and 24, 2011. Game at the high school after a tailgate supper on Friday. Dinner Dance at the Country club, Saturday. Need better ways to communicate with classmates about the particulars. Since high school, I became a nurse, worked in Chapel Hill 4 years, followed my Dr husband when he entered the army to Ft Campbell, KY. After 2 years he was honorably discharged. We eventually ended up in Mt Airy where he worked as the pathologist and I volunteered in all kinds of activities with my girl and boy. For 30 1/2 years I taught childbirth classes (Sandy's version of Lamaze) once a week five weeks out of seven. I was a Girl Scout leader for 20 years and am still involved (lifetime membership in GSUSA). I became a certified soccer referee and stood in cold wet weather many times watching the boy, & camped in cold wet weather many times with lots of teen girls. In 2007 I became a Stephen Leader and try to keep up with a team of Stephen Ministers & the hurting, lonely folks in our church. Also I try to keep up with 4 grandchildren, ages 5 to 21. Two live 2 hours east of me and two live 2 hours southwest of me. I stay in the car alot! I only watch TV to see college basketball & am usually doing something else while watching. Yeah UNC, UVA, Wake Forest, ECU, & Du...Expand for more
ke!! Paid tuition at every one of them. I do use the TV for exercise with Wii Sports, Outdoor Adventures, & the fitness board when my husband isn't using it to watch lectures from the Teaching Company. I'm trying to grow a yard, but I'm not good at it. Thirty plus years of neglect means it will take awhile for top-notch results! 2013 we're back to a lot of moss under the oak trees! We've traveled since 2001. Until then Bob just worked! We've been to Europe, Alaska, Grand Canyon (3x), New Zealand, Peru, Utah, CA, & China. Seen lots of National Parks, here & abroad. I've been to Guatemala on a mission trip. Next trip is to Greece & Turkey & Colorado! My son moved his family to Colorado in Aug 2013. Got there in time for flash floods around Boulder where he works. Now I'll spend more time in an airplane in order to see the little grandkids. Summer of 2013 we went the equivalent of around the world. 6 hours time change to Hawaii & back, then 6 hours time change in the other direction to Venice & Croatia & back = 24 hrs + around the world! Summer of 2012 we were in Rome, Naples, Sorrento, Malta, Barcelona, Valencia, etc.! Love the cruises since we don't have to pack up the suitcase everyday! Tree on the roof when we returned from Venice. Most repair work done, but still dealing with the insurance company about some of it.
