Donna's Story

I attended University of Cincinnati off and on in my 20's . My husband and I live in Indiana now but have moved alot .We have lived in 31 cities in 7 states and traveled too .We've been to alot of Islands - Nassau,Virgin Islands,Hawaii,Kawaii and Honduras , Belize, Cozumel , Grand Caymans and went to Paris , France in 2014. We met at age 22 and we were 25 when we married.Over the last 36 years we've owned 7 homes but still are not settled down. We have two daughters . One lives in Indiana she has 3 degrees a Bachlors, a Masters and a PHD. She is a research scientist and Proffesor at Indiana University. She also taught at Pacific University of Hawaii . My younger daughter lived in New York City and was the Director of Advertising at Kenneth Cole , but now lives in Chicago and is International Director of Marketing for Con Agro Foods ; She has two Bachlars Degrees from University of Georgia. They are beautiful, smart and successful I am truly blessed! As for me I stayed home and taught my daughters how to read and write before they ever went to kindergarten and shared all the joys of growing up with them. It was wonderful .After they were older, I taught for 13 years ( preschool , kindergarten and 2nd grade) . I'm not working now just visit our daughters and write poetry and books and go go go . I recently started painting again ; I always loved art. We still go to all the Disney parks with them and Universal studios the Henry Potter one was really great ! We've also enjoyed jet skis, boating, and even been on a submarine trip done by the coast guard in Hawaii. We loved the North beach there. My brother who graduated from Anderson High School lives down here in Florida ..My husband and he golf. My sister who's grad from AHS has a home in Cincinnati . Well, I hope you enjoyed my story it's been going very fast!!! May God Bless You and give you go...Expand for more
od health and a happy life!!! My younger daughter recently moved to Chicago for an Executive job there and live downtown in a beautful apt. with windows all around overlooking the city. We enjoyed the Science center and the Art Museum there. We have been to art museums everywhere we traveled but we recently were amazed to find the most Beautiful works of art in Sarasota Florida at the John Ringling Museum of Art , I still can't believe it !!!!! There was 5 giant wall covering Peter Paul Rubens a breath taking Masters collection there is only 7 of these 50 feet Religious painting ever painted by Rubens how John Ringling got them out of Europe is a mystery to me , there's also one of Michalangelo's bronze David's of original size made by him for one of the other Church's in Europe there's so many wonderful works of art there !!!!!!!! My husband and I spend a whole day at the Estate which also has several other amazing buildings there, including their 22,000 sq. ft. house , a Theatre brought over from Italy , a circus Museum, a rose garden and more. I already plan to go back. It was nt what I expected and how often does that happen ! Well we're stillliving the good life and thanking God we can. Loving God, Family, Country, Donna Well, it's March of 2013 and we have moved to Bloomington, Indiana. We love the pretty college town and are close to family in Ohio and Chicago and our daughter and son-in-law here in Bloomington. We are excited about buying a new home here. We just got back from Paris ,France .I loved the Art, the food , the language and the people what a wonderful city. It's 2014 well Mr. Wilson our French teacher would have been delighted to see me use my French and eat his favorite meal Coq au vin. The buildings were amazing!!! Notre Dame was beautiful. , I've been painting a lot of canvases since returning ; I'm inspired!!.
