Carolyn's Story
Who am I? Man this could be really a shocker for
the people that I went to school with. I was so Shy
during school.... To a certain extent I still am well
until you get to know me then watch out lol. I have
learned that I have to make the most of my life no
matter what is going on in it. Be it bad or good... I
am a clutz omg a bad one. Example.... I was sitting
eating my lunch and invited a guy to come and sit
at my table because i wanted to show him some
pictures of my kids so he gets his coffee and sits
down beside me well he sits his coffee on the table
and just as my luck would have it I turned around
and knocked the scalding hot coffee in his lap and I
got so nervous when i turned back around i knocked
my Cup of coke all over the table well needless to
say all the other people cleared the table..... It took
me a long time to get somebody to sit beside me
during lunch ........ ROFLMAO ......... walking in a
room to give a speach yep your right trip and fall i
just got us dusted myself off and said "Well I think I
did that rather gracefully"..... Ya just gotta learn to
laugh at yourself......
Most of the people at work went to a funeral for a
co workers son and I rode in this big ass truck with a
lady and i swear ya need a ladder to get into the
sucker.... WELL I got in it and we parked at the
funeral home I go to get our and fall out and hit the
ground so hard my heels fly off my feet one shoots
across the street and one the other way.... I look
around to be sure my boss did not see me because I
knew it would be all over the place if he saw me well
I make it through the funeral then I told that lady I
am not going to try and haul my ass back in that
truck I will ride with somebody else well i walk out of
the funeral home and step in a big hole in front of
my boss and hit the ground he said whats wrong
Carolyn Did you have a drink on the way over ..... I
just said oh bite me. Learn to laugh at all of your
mistakes and all the mishaps in your life that get you
down.....Laugh , Laugh , Laugh it is what life is all
about.......
I fill my life with family and friends and I help all that
I can.... I write alot of things and share them with
the people that I love ....... With me there is no
halfway with anything. I am either your friend or
not ....... when I love people it is completely..... I
would do anything to help my friends. I would give
them my last dime if they needed it. Because I
have found that happiness is not in possessions......
How is your glass ? Half full or half empty? Mine is
always half full...... None of the people that i grew up
with or went to school with have any idea about the
person that i am...... I have evolved into a person
that is so very different to that person. When you
go through life and have a lot of hardships you can
do on...Expand for more
e of two things. You can choose to let those
hardships get you down and get bitter or you can
choose to use that as a stepping stone to a better
you. I chose to do the second. I feel very , very
blessed . My children and I are very close I literally
gave them my life after my Divorce. I promised
them that I would not marry again until they were
grown and gone from home and that is exactly what
i did. The last one left home in 1991 and at that
time my mom and step dad lived beside me and
needed me and I Helped with their care and My step
dad died 3 years ago and My mother died christmas
and I have no regrets ..... I feel very honored that
God allowed me the priviledge and honor of helping
take care of them. He is a good and merciful God.
Now I have been single 25 years and trying to
rebuild my life into one that Will be surrounded by
the people and things that I love.... Books, Music,
Computer , my writhing and my children and
grandchildren. I have met a lot of wonderful
people on the internet and then again some real
jerks.... but then again that is life. that is why they
have an off switch RIGHT ? lol
I practically live on my cell phone .... i text so much
i wore the buttons out on one....
You guys take care and leave me a message....
thanks for stopping by to get to know me
I think that Most of my school mates will be shocked because I no longer have long hair and my make up is tatooed on ...... since i never wore make up or cut my hair during school...... I am a very outspoken person now to a certain extent.
I even shock myself by some of the things that come out of my mouth..... especially after the first drink.....
craziest thing i have ever done was going to a bar in Onalaska and dancing on the table after a few drinks and somebody dared me to lol...... cant stand it when they do it...
If I got one do over I would not change a thing because it is all the things that I did and all of my mistakes that made me in to the person I am today and I am a much better person....
To be truly happy I would be anywhere in the world with D.R. and doing anything or nothing at all .... ''
I would hope that people would remember me fondly but I was kinda quite so I do not think I will be remembered at all and thats ok My life did not really begin until I grew up enought to change my life....
My first crush lives in Houston and is married ......A wonderful Man.
Wildest thing I ever did in school was to crawl out the band hall window and go and get donuts during choir class
Teacher that I would have loved to see again is a teacher that I had in grade school Mr Batton
I lived in Cleveland, Houston, Corrigan and Livingston I have been in Livingston for the past 22 years..........................Plan on moving in the future to Austin to be beside my son.
God bless and Keep you real Good
