John D.'s Story
Second time I wrote this, The first time I forgot to hit save. DUH.
Alot has happened in the past 20 years since highschool. After looking around and reading some stories it seems like we have all gone in different and unique directions.
I myself have been through a lot. I wasn't much for high school as some of you know but even though I didn't participate with graduation ceremony I did graduate and get my diploma. (For the few who wondered where I was during graduation).
I stayed in Englewood with my folks and went to school to become a barber. I did that for quite a while as well as worked in the healthcare field. In 1996 I lost my dad and in 1999 I lost my mom and sold the house and moved Venice where I purchased a condo. I work at the Venice Gondolier for a time and in the fall of 2001 I decided to move back to the Adirondack Mountains in upstate NY. I had enough of Florida and needed a change and since the rest of my siblings and family were up here I figured this would be the right move. Though sometimes I wonder.
After moving back I got a job at Lenscrafters and have been there for the past seven years. My barbering has put to rest due to carpal tunnel which I had to have surgery on both wrists in the summ...Expand for more
er of 2002. Working at Lenscrafters has given me a new career path. I work in the lab making glasses as well as helping out in all other areas of the store.
This year I plan on starting my Opticians training and that will give me another direction in life. I love working in the optical field.
I purchased a house up here and am living in South Glens Falls, NY. It has been an adjustment the first few years. I am still single and live alone trying to make ends meet. I have a cute long hair Chihuahua and a cat and some fish. So when I get home everyday I have someone happy to see me.
I don't do to much except work and home. With the price of gas lately who can afford to do anything. ButI do hang out with my boss who is also my best friend up here. We go for walks in the park or concerts or just hang at her house or mine and watch tv and make mojitos.
I have a neice who lives about a mile from me and she has three kids so I get involved with them quite often. My life is pretty simple and quiet most of the time.
I never really kept in touch with anyone but would like to reconnect if anyone is interested. Drop me a line and say hi. I would leave my email address but I guess that's forbidden.....LOL
Take care
