The years after high school were busy. I was a new mom, went to college part-time, worked at a variety of jobs (waitress, receptionist, tutor). I became involved in Girl Scouts, volunteering at St. John, and sports. Paul and I coached basketball and track for years, both at GRC middle school and St. John. I went to school when the kids were older. After receiving my Bachelor's from Purdue-Cal, I became a teacher at Lincoln E.S. in Hammond. I'm was very active at Lincoln in extra-curriculars, but recently gave most of it up (willingly) when our first granddaughter was born. Now, I travel a lot because our daughter and her family live in Ohio. Our son lives in Colorado. I'm still teaching, have my Masters, but can't wait to retire (10 more years!!!). I love to travel, garden, read, and spend time with family and friends.
Update: Retired from School City of Hammond (2018). Moved to Powell, OH to be near our granddaughters. Currently traveling and just enjoying life.
