12/2008 Wow. High School was a billion years ago. So it seems. Got out of high school and went to trade schools and junior college for 6 years. Anyone who knew me, would absolutely know 'school' was not my forte. It's quite amusing that years later I ran into Mr. Valderane and he knew exactly who I was. Senior year they gave me a plaque in the principles office. really. School sucked. And thank everyone for the years of scarring for being labeled "Least likely to succeed" and "Class Clown". You bunch of bully's! I became an independent business consultant for about 10yrs, working when I wanted: I was successful. But then the market changed and I was just going from one job to another. I realized I really do not like working for other people (who the hell does) or sitting in one place too long. Oh, that 4 letter word ¿work¿. My jobs where like my marriage. 1989 got married to Brian Kummer, then a SC police officer (interesting choice for me). Anyway, had two kids: Michelle and Colton. Soon after, went the divorce route. I just could not sit still long enough to be a wife, realized he was not the love of my life. Good guy, we really made a good divorced-team of raising the kids and doing the right thing. So I think. Im totally content of becoming old alone and killing cats. Oh, I mean petting cats! I opened up my Vegan restaurant in Redlands called the Health Hut. Was going to be the first to develop Vegetarian Fast Food Drive-Thru's. I'm always thinking. My restaurant was successful, but my idea just was not feasible to the cheap-food world. Sold my restaurant after a year. On top of the 16 hour days and multiple bottles of wine.. I needed to be closer to my children and less time at work. Well, anyway... Im here in SC enjoying working for 2 construction companies as an office manager, sales and marketing. I¿m so glad 6 yrs of college gave me this wonderful opportunity. crap. Nothing too creative or exciting. My brain is slowing down. But the good thing is, working in SC, I can take care of my son (17yrs old): till he too is out of the house. If he ever leaves ¿ I love him to pieces, but can somebody answer this for me?... Why does a surfer need to use 2-3 towels a day, leave them outside for a week, then throw the stinky things on the bathroom floor? Hes a towel thief. This is baffling me. Weeks later, I have a plethora of somebody elses towels. I think their breeding!. So, Ill start wrapping up the tid bits of my life. The old girls group sitting along the wall at SC high school, still exists. (Jill Sheets, Shelly Ivy, Kim Reese) still hang out a little. But we don¿t wear dolphin shorts, our skin no longer feels like a babys butt and the excitement of life has been sucked out of us. Every year we have our girls luncheon, including Nancy Solonen and Wendy Henderson. It's good to reminisce with the old gals! I¿m so ...Expand for more
