Judy's Story
Well, in school I was very shy, and had just a few very close friends.....the rest of you, I was probably too shy to even say hi, or look at, unless we had a class together, and you spoke to me first. That has changed to a certain extent....ha ha I still have to get to know someone, before I consider them a friend.....but once my friend....I am there for you. I got married after beauty school, and had 3 beautiful girls.....divorced after 23 years. Married #2.... 2yrs later.....we were married 5 yrs, and (during that time, we adopted a little girl with Downs Syndrome.)... altho' he remained my best friend. After our divorce, I got a job working as a Supervisor for two group homes for Developmentally Delayed kids......It was the greatest job I have ever had.....two years later, I married #3...that one lasted only 2 yrs.....We split up, because I fell in love with a baby boy with Downs Syndrome,( he was in the medically fragile home my bosses owned) and hubby said no..couldn't adopt him......well, let's just say, that didn't go over so well...ha ha I did adopt him, and hubby #3 was gone. I was single for 5 years.....had a great time.....lol moved to Indiana, bought a home, and lost everything in a flood......hubby number 2 came to my rescue, and brought me back to California. We remarried last year, on what would have been our 15th wedding anniversary. ...Expand for more
He is still my best friend, and I couldn't be happier. (SO yes...have been married 4 times....how is that for the shy girl?? lol).....oh yeah.....I forgot.....we adopted another special needs boy last August.....so, we have between us 8 kids....11 grand kids and 2 GREAT grand daughters....how blessed is that??
I live in Riverside...(how the heck did I get out here?? lol ) hate the heat and smog...but this is where all my kids are, so I won't be moving I guess.
I made contact over the internet with Gloria Young, and Pat Sailor.....other then that.....don't know what happened to anyone....would love to hear from anyone that remembers me, and tell me about your life.
10/31/08 UPDATE....I am leaving in 12 days for Milwaukee to pick up my foster baby, that I lost in May, to biological relatives. They decided they can't go thru with the adoption, so I get her back. I had her from birth til she was 8 months old, she just celebrated her 1st birthday....so, I am going to be mommy to number 7...lol AND at my age...I have two great grand daughters older then Dannielle.
Have a great one!! Life and GOD are good!
March 2015.......Update........well in the process of divorce..........couldn't take the drinking, and verbal abuse any longer. Have moved to my own home, with my 3 special kids.......and I am so happy! Feel like a bird just released from a cage! Judy
