Sandra Schmidt:  

I always wanted to be a beautician when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a bad idea. As it turns out, they were right. We won't talk about my wild activities from high school or first year in college. Best let go and forgotten. My number one heroes are tied for first and that would be my wonderful parents. They taught me how important family is and how to forgive people. It seems I have a restless soul. I have moved often since I got out of high school and plan to move more when I am done with my next degree. After I left Defiance, I lived in Lima, OH; Portsmouth, VA; Jacksonville, FL; Defiance, OH; Perrysburg, OH; Rossford, OH; Springfield, OH; Centerville, OH; Miamisburg and finally Fairborn, OH. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Grandma Jean, Dwayne Plum and Duke Arbuthnot, because they all held special places in my life. I love having animals in my life, currently we have Topper the Golden Retriever and Fudge the Tiger Kittie who have now moved out with my daughter. I prefer watching sports live. I love hockey, professional football and baseball. I enjoy watching Survivor, Great American Race and Big Brother. My biggest surprise is that because of my children, I developed a passion for psychology. They gave me the reason and support to finally do something special besides raise them. If I could improve my home, I'd remodel bedroom and add on a sunroom with hottub. My dream home would be MINE.. tucked back a private road in the woods. My kids taught me to not judge others so harshly. To accept that each person's path is their own unique path to travel. Mrs. Brownlee, oops, I mean Mrs. Dunlap was my favorite teacher. Even though her son was not a very nice person she was the personification of nice. If I had a do over, I don't know what I would do... I would like to say not marry my kids father... but he gave me 2 wonderful children. I would like to pick a different father who regardless...Expand for more
