Kathryn Durand:  

ow own a jewelry business and Bridal wedding design. Been around havent I? hahahaha! Life is GOOD! Update March 2022: I am still living up in the White mountains of Arizona in Show Low. I love living here the air is clean the water is clean, the people that live here are different breed. I have thought about moving back to Tucson, however when I start thinking about the hot summers in comparison to the mild Summers here that thought goes away very quickly. My life has changed drastically in the past 3 years and has become less complicated and more simple. I have finally found myself. It took me slowing down immensely. I have learned to stop and smell the roses and watch the world go by and it's a very satisfying feeling to be able to do that after living the life that I lived, where I didn't stop for more than 10 minutes. I was the oldest of four kids the only girl and I was the one that they all came to for advice. I was the family problem solver after my parents passed away. Now I don't worry about any of that. In September of this year 2022 on the 23rd which is the first day of autumn, by the way ... I will hit a mile marker of 70 years of age! I never thought I would live this long I don't know why it just was unfathomable when I was younger. It is actually a gift to be able to grow old and live as long as I have and I look forward to many more years ahead of me. I have started my bucket list not because I plan on checking out anytime soon but simply because it's going to be so large it's going to take me time to accomplish everything that I want to. If I didn't have a bad heart valve I would probably have done the number one thing on my bucket list and that was bungee jumping or skydiving. Oh that's one thing I won't be able to do. But that's okay because I think I've lost my zest to try it. My kids are all doing good they're all independent successful with their careers. My daughter Marlena and son Robert live in Tucson and my youngest daughter Tiffany disappear on the mountain. This is the gathering place during the holidays we all gather at my daughter Tiffany's home. If you are reading this and you have stumbled upon a word blunder, it is because I do voice messaging texting and writing. 30 years of proofreading legal documents was enough for me I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out! Kudos and big hugs to those of you that were my friends back then get in touch with me. Thanks for reading and leave me a message send a current picture. For those that are wondering I did get sick with covid but I had my vaccination and a booster and I had symptoms of a common cold I am so grateful for the vaccine. If you are not yet vaccinated be sure and get vaccinated and keep up with your boosters every 6 months you will thank me for that.
