Mary's Story
Life
After graduating from WHS in 1949, I worked, married, moved a whole lot. Ended up in Mississippi where the people are very friendly, sociable, and just love it here. We do have the occasional t-storms and possible tornado watches, but not a lot of snow to shovel. 2004 gave us a sort of white Christmas but more sleet than snow.....but it WAS white...and very cold. The new year of 2005 will warm up and so far looks like a rosy future. I spend a lot of time on my computer and with my sewing machines.....my main hobbies. We are also living in the midst of Civil War history. Corinth is the Crossroads of the Confederacy, and they practice reenactments often. Lots to see here. Come and visit.
In January 2006, we became a really empty nest. The last doggie passed away. We were three weeks alone which seemed strange after over 50 years of the patter of four feet in the house. Lost our minds, totally, I think, when we decided to adopt three kittens from our local shelter. They are a year old this month (May '06) and keep us more ac...Expand for more
tive than we ever thought possible. Molly, Daisy and Heidi are lots of fun. We have dubbed them the Destructive Trio. We cannot turn our backs on them.....worse than the two legged kids. So the empty nest is gone again and the zoo has literally become the ''cat house''. Were we too old for this caper? Time will tell.
College
Got first 24 units in Real Estate (major). Went back to take "garbage courses" to continue college at Sac State (junior and senior years), but ended up graduating American River College with an AA Degree, 3.5 GPA, graduated with honors. Something I never seemed to be able to do in high school. Worked as a real estate salesman for several years then "retired" due to husband's job transfer to Tacoma, WA. Been "retired" ever since. Suits me.
Workplace
Worked for A-F-and H for over 4 years. This was a booking and buying outfit that handled drive in and indoor theaters. Lots of free movies. Got married. Next job was in Real Estate in California. Worked 4 years +, gave up to retire (whatever that is).
