Lori's Story

Life Wow, where to start. I never married - the men in my life and I seemed to be in different mental and/or geographical places when our paths crossed for whatever duration. So, I live alone, currently in Mishawaka, IN. After dropping-out of I.U., I spent about 30 years living in Chicago, where, for the last 20 of those years, I had a condo in the East Lakeview area and worked in the Insurance business handling corporate property and casualty coverage. While there, apart from work, I was active in charitable fundraising, neighborhood politics and Lake Shore Ski Club. A skiing accident in 1985 had some long term effects which eventually resulted, along with some other health problems, in my becoming unable to continue working regularly. I tried doing a home business for a few years, including Insurance and Internet consulting and also hosting an artwork website (A Gallery of Sorts) that unfortunately cost more to maintain than it made. I did, however, develop a terrific fetish for Sterling Silver jewelry...anyway... This all led to financial problems that included losing the condo and moving back to Indiana (where most of my family remains, but now in the South Bend area, instead of Hammond/Munster) while waiting to be approved for Disability Income....Expand for more
Thankfully, I was finally (after 3 years) awarded official Disabled status near the end of 2004. So now I've re-established an independent life for myself again, including a new-found political activism, especially in the last several years. I'm currently the Northern Indiana Regional Organizer for MoveOn.org. I've been in Mishawaka for the last 6+ years and I'm now very used to this part of the state, living on a much more scaled back budget than the good old Chicago days. But I'm doing all right or better, despite a variety of health problems, and I may have finally found my soul mate, thanks to Classmates,com, but he's not close enough by. It's complicated... If anyone who remembers me is living relatively close by and would like to re-connect, please drop me an email - I'm game. Extensive walking is difficult for me these days, as are most strenuous activities, but otherwise, I could use new or old friends to hang-out with. Most of the people that I currently know are married and consumed with activities associated with their families - not up for trying a piano bar, doing karaoke or going to a movie - or they're too old (i.e. the mom). So, if you find yourself in somewhat similar circumstances, let me know. I'd really love to hear from you...
