Irene's Story
I am older now and sometimes wiser, with a full, sometimes chaotic, life. I live in a house of only guys, which is fine with me. My sons and husband make me proud to be among 'em. We have taught them some values along with very sick humor. We hope to pass this family treasure into the next generations, as my parents did me.
I do not expect to retire for a long time; I need a schedule. No grandkids, maybe alot later. My guys are too young still.
I always wanted to be a journalist when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a poor financial idea. As it turns out, they were maybe right.
If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have coffee, cappuchino, and quiet to be able to deal with the day-to-day.
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel the kitchen and back deck and add on a sun room. My dream home would be the one I have in the country.
How guys think at different stages of life. That each one has a unique talent that is special only to them.
If I won $100 million, I'd give $1 million of it to Salvation Army, then spend the rest on al...Expand for more
l debt, house remodeling and boys' educations.
No, ALWAYS a commuter student.
My current age is 52. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be potential nursing home residents. I was so completely wrong.
Continue working as an NP in Internal Medicine and Hospice. Do not seek change right now.
My best friend would tell you I'm the bad girl, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as reserved.
NO! Style is fairly conservative now. Had to put away the tie dye sometime.
I share my home with my husband 2 younger sons, two dogs and two cats, which I find sometimes crowded.
No trophies, but alot of unique pottery pieces.
In 10 years, I hope to be more knowledgeable. I'm going to get there by plugging away.
My first job was at Dean's Grocery, where I got paid every summer to clean shelves. What I remember most about it is that Rhonda Hartgrove and I had some great conversations.
Picking off lemons, avocadoes, and oranges off trees in the groves in California. We lived on a big ranch there when I was in kindergarten.
