Colleen's Story
Now I live in Scottsdale, AZ with Chico and Max (2 Havanese dogs) and Paul, my husband of 24 years. How did I get here??? (read on)
Graduated San Diego State Univ in 1975 (worked my way through with some assistance from scholarships) with degree in Business Mgmt. Worked for 30 years in the hospitality industry. Left in 2001 as a burned-out executive. After working in construction (hmmm) I took some time off to determine what I wanted to do with the rest of my life.
In 2004 I started a company that hand-dyes luxury fibers and yarns with a good friend. I have never worked so hard for so little, but I'm happy to go to work every day. Not o...Expand for more
nly do we have a full line that we dye, but I have edited 2 self-published books and a "big" book has some interest from a publisher.
Paul and I have been very happy for most of 24 years. Turns out that I'm a walking contraceptive device so I had to learn to be content with two stepchildren and neices. We now have 6 grandchildren - last year I got to do a "Flat Stanley" project!
Rode my own Harley (yep, a big one) for 12 years, but lifestyle changed when we moved to Arizona and it's gone. My health now is good, but had some brain surgery a while back and cancer just recently - but all is clear now.
I've gone on too long... see ya. Colleen
