Susan's Story
Life
I went to Somerville Central Grade School, Middle and High School until 7 months before graduation at which time I had to transfer to BRHS-West. I married 7/1/68 (hard to believe we celebrated 43 years this year) and we moved to sunny Gainesville, Fl., home of the University of Florida and the Fighting Gators. I have two of the best kids (boys age 42 & 39), two of the best daughter-in-laws, and the best gradkids in the whole world (Danielle 18, Grace 6, Grant 3, James 1 mon.). Life is good!!!
In 1985 I graduated from Santa Fe College and for the past 25 years have worked at our Unversity of Florida Women's Health Group. I am a Registered Nurse Specialist and started as a Gyn unit team leader. I did that for about 5 years and was asked to switch over to OB and became an OB educator for 6 years and now work with our Gyn Oncology patients. It is very rewarding and at the same time very hard to loose so many wonderful women to Ovarian and advanced Gyn cancer, I look at death in a different prospective that I did 25 year...Expand for more
s ago.
I retired from fulltime work 3 yrs. ago and stiill work, as needed, for the same group. I can now enjoy being the perfect wife and grandmother (G-mom to our g-kids). Now I can just have fun, get up when I want, get dresses when I want, go out when I want, do what I want when I want. It is so great!!!!
I spend a lot of time sewing and quilting, love to create beautiful things. Just bought a great new sewing/embroidery machine that does everthing I could ever want in a machine, cost more than my first 2 cars together and 1/2 of our 1st home mortage, totally blew my mind, but oh what a ride...
If you remember me, you will remember that I have a twin sister (Sally). She lives in Salisbury, NC. I would like to move there or have her move here. Feeling the need to reconnect (doubt we will ever live close to eachother ever again, she hates Florida and I like it too much to leave).
Speaking of reconnecting I would like to do this with the class that I think as my true classmates not just the school that I graduated from.
