Rebecca's Story
Life
I sort of retired about 6 months ago. Actually, I plan to start looking for a part-time job very soon, but really needed that much time off. I always planned to become a nurse. Well, I took a 20-year detour but finally accomplished that by completing the COS RN Program in 1987. I have been a psychiatric-mental health nurse for 19 years. For the last 7 years, I did admissions and crisis intervention for an acute psychiatric hospital. When I return to work, it will be to something very different.
About a year ago, my boss brought in a new person for me to train for the crisis team. She looked very familiar, but I just couldn't place her. Later, we got to talking and I discovered that she is the daughter of someone I went to school with at Laguna and Laton. My mom went to high school with her grandmother. I even knew her great-grandparents from church when I was a kid. No wonder she seemed familiar!
I never married or had any kids, which makes grandchildren very difficult. That was solved for me several years ago when one of my nephews relocated from another...Expand for more
state to be with me during treatment for cancer. His wife and children now live 3 blocks away. I see them almost daily. The kids are 12 and almost-16. She is plays the viola and is very involved in dance. He plays flute in the marching band (he loves that there are only 2 guys to 8 girls in his section) and is president of the chess club besides being a video gamer
One night several years ago, I noticed two beady
little eyes in the garage as I returned from work. Realizing it was a mouse, I determined to get a cat to rid my house of that pest. I now have three orange cats. Strange, because I distinctly remember only bringing one home. The other two somehow adopted me.
Travel is my big luxury. Since 1991 I have been to the Bahamas, 3 or 4 times to Florida, San Antonio, Victoria/Vancouver Island, San Diego,Hawaii, Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe/Reno, Scotland, Cornwall, Wales and two trips to England. Italy will probably be the next major trip.
Right now I am trying to decide whether to sell my house and relocate to the Central Coast or to stay put for a few more years.
