Kim Lyons:  

Life The info below is outdated: I've been disability since 2003 with a neurological condition, but I love to paint, spend time with my family, friends and dogs and stay active in my church. What I USED to do is below! Kim P.S. I got married in 2007 and we just celebrated our first anniverary. The photo in my profile was taken at the Georgia football game in the fall of 2006, about three weeks after I got hit by a car while I was in a crosswalk. I'd been planning to march with the Flags in the UGA alumni band for months, and I wouldn't let a broken leg stop me! I'm an Executive Producer for CNN in Atlanta. My shows are CNN Saturday/Sunday Morning with Miles O'Brien and Kyra Phillips. Prior to that, I worked for CNN International for the last several years, and was a Supervising Producer for World News and a travel show. I spent two years in the London bureau, but I'm now back and live in Henry County. I live in the McDonough historic district near the square and I have two wonderful golden retrievers. In 1996, Peachtree Publishers published the book I co-authored,"Archival Atlanta." If you know me and remember me, say 'hi' and I'll fill you in on the rest! I'd especially love to hear from former band members and newspaper staffers. FIll in the blank stuff: How do I hope my old friends remember me? I just hope they remember! I always wanted to be a TV star when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a hilarious idea. As it turns out, they were wrong and my first "real" job was on the air as a TV reporter. I actually wanted to be "Batgirl" in the "Batman" TV show, but I guess doing the news was sort of close. (I'm just plugging in the answers to weird questions this web site is giving me.) Exercise is how I blow off steam. My favorite way to relax is to just chill after working out really hard. What's the wildest thing I ever did in school? Virtually nothing because I was such a straight arrow. But I did skip Driver's Ed one day (or two) and go to Burger King with my friends. If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have a chance to be creative, cooperative co-workers, and decaf coffee breaks to be able to deal with the day-to-day. Do I have a hero? Jesus, who else? But an imperfect human hero would be Joni Earaekson Tada. Check out her devotional "Pearls of Great Price." It will help you deal with any of the struggles you've been dealing with. Where have I lived? After college, I moved to Alabama (Montgomery and Birmingham) then back to Georgia then to London (England) and back to Georgia. All the moves were for work. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is xxxx xxxx, because we used to be friends but drifted apart. If you think xxxx xxxx is you, then get in touch!! I am wild about Golden Retrievers (so is my husband, and I'm wild about him too.) To see ours go to dogs (dot) kimunderwood (dot) com We recently lost one of them, Bailey, to cancer. Cancer is a horrible thing. What's my biggest surprise in life? Waiting until 45 to get married and of course actually finding the man of my dreams. I hardly dated when I was younger because I was too shy (and no one asked!!!) I was actually surprised when someone recently said I was really pretty in high school. I never thought of myself that way and no one told me. I had a lot of self-confidence in my abilities, but not in my looks. You see this with teenagers today: they are really viscious about destroying each other's self-esteem. "Friends" said some really horrible, hurtful things to me when I was in high school and it took a while to get over it. It's long been forgiven and forgotten (except when I'm writing something like this.) I know I must have been un...Expand for more
