Denise Falsetti LASSI:  

Hello my old friends and acquaintances. I just realized that I could register at Burger Jr. High too...How fun! I was single until age 29, engaged once before that, married 18 years, and have two teenagers, boy 16, girl almost 15. My kids have been the focus of my life for 17 years. I worked part time while parenting to keep busy, make some extra cash and still work part time. I took a few college classes, never obtained a degree, I was into psychology and computers, still am. I went on to get a real estate license, but that didnt work well with parenting. I also went to cosmetology school in the mid eighties.I was an executive/administrative assistant for 10 years before attending cosmetology school for over two years at a top school in the state.Anyone remember me doing hair even in Junior high I was doing the do's!. I still do hair to this day, more for family friends, socializing, dallying around with it. I bartended while attending school. and had a stint waitressing for 5 years part time 2 evenings at Deluca's when I used to live in Dearborn Heights and my kids were babies. I participated in Fine Art Shows for 5 years, and my work made the front page of the Plymouth Observor in 2002 during the Plymouth Art Fest. I also have written a few articles on breast cancer, participated in fashion shows for women who have undergone surgeries due to breast cancer.( iam a survivor too. I am still an Artist..my work is displayed in our home, Ive sold several hundred pieces over a 5 year period. Some of my hobbies are, art first and foremost. I paint, airbrush some(new interest) do matting for picture framing, my husband makes frames for them in our work shop, and he is a great woodworker whose still learning and making beautiful solid wood funriture of oak, cherry etc - He is a bit like my dad who was a master carpenter, who is now retired in the Upper Penninsula with his wife, up by Houghton, off Lake Superior.(He's a YOOPER!!) Its so beautiful there, we go every year - its 10 hours away! I also computer browse, email, study medical things, I love learning and reading up on things, photography-freelance some, cooking and creating salsa, sauces, italian foods, pizza is still my favorite! Gardening with my son, he planted it this year, I canned it. Comedy shows and comedy clubs, I LOVE THEM!!. My sis and are are going to do a stand up act one day soon, we have a great time....it wont be clean comedy though, she's tough! I went to the 10 year reunion and I wasn't real comfortable with some of the clickiness. I think because I was single, and was finishing school that year, AND I was waitressing and I think I felt inadequate (being honest). Plus my recent boyfriend just dumped me a week before the reunion and dumped me for a friend from the old neighborhood, who I feel betrayed me then...they are married now, I got over it fast, we remained friends afterwards. Glad i didnt marry him! I went to the reunion with my BFF Kathy Sikorski because I was single & she was hoping to see a certain guy. Kathy was one grade lower than me, because her birthday was 2 week...Expand for more
