1960 |
I was one of the statistics cited in the "Ladies Home Journal" April 1959, I married that year so contributed to Catalina being the #1 school in the USA for students that married in High School. I was supposed to graduate with you all but had 2 daughters in 2+ yrs. So I ended up graduating in 1962 at Rincon. I still feel like one of this class, though. I had a son in '66 and divorced after 30 years in '91. I am semi-retired, living in a great 55+ mobile home park with many activities. My health is not too good, but I get by. I have 3 cats that keep me company and am a Karaoke nut. I have almost 300 Karaoke discs and @4500 songs in my collection. I also like to paint a little when I can. I telecommute for work, so don't have to go out to work, which is very nice and saves oodles of money on clothes and gas. I am the Grandmother of 3 and my oldest Grandson graduated from college this year. His mother is older than I am now, she turned 50 this year. I wonder how that happened? I hope you all enjoyed the reunion and are sorry I can't get away. I will be there in spirit.
