Margaret Patterson:  

Life Updated: April 29, 2007 - decided to update by "bio" but wanted to leave what I had originally written for those just joining. I moved into Omaha from Plattsmouth last February (2006) into the Millard area and into a 4 bedroom split level house with a fenced yard for my little dog - how he loves that - no more having to be on a leash when he goes outside. I had a roommate until about 3 months ago and now a new roommate ... we will be getting married September 2008 (yep, a "new" bride at the "old" age of 63). He drives truck and is a company driver for an OTR company here in Omaha ... I took a 2-week vacation in November and went with him - we covered 6000 miles in that 2-week time period and it was great!! He must have enjoyed it as well as when we came home after the first week of being out, he "popped" the question and of course, my immediate response was a resounding "yes." My life will increase then to the tune of 7 grandchildren ranging in age from 1 year to 10 years - and it is great to have youngsters in my family again. I continue to work part-time at home although now for a lady here in Omaha who has 17 other transcriptionists working for her - 15 full-time and 3 part-time ... all Omaha doctors. I'm just not satisfied to be "retired" but it is nice to work when I want and to take off when the whim hits me. It has been nice to hear now from some of those I graduated with ... and can you believe that now Nishna Valley and Malvern are called East Mills with new school colors and a new mascot ... remember how hard it was when the 4 then small combined and we became graduating classes from Nishna Valley ... and now NV and Malvern are joining forces - don't think totally official yet ...Expand for more
