I've been teaching high school
science (Biology & Human Anatomy/Physiology) for the past 16
years. Divorced 4 years ago, but have since found the love of my
life, Ed Odgers a native Wisconsinite who loves horses as much as I do
and is also an extraordinary saddle maker to boot. We live on a
farm west of Madison with 8 horses, 2 cats and a dog. I still enjoy
downhill and x-country skiing during the winter months. During
summer months I can be found trail riding, camping, improving my
horsemanship skills, gardening, and spending time with friends and
family. LIFE IS GOOD! :-)

Thankfully, I have gotten older
and wiser. While I still have some dignity left, I just don't care if
I'm having a bad hair day anymore! Age is a beautiful thing, except in
bad lighting. I have been married to my soul mate for 21 years. We have
3 boys, 2 in college and one learning to drive. He will not be driving
my car anytime soon. I seem to be experiencing empty nest syndrome
because I am collecting animals. I have been working in animal shelters
for 12 years and it is an occupational hazard. In addition to my 2
adult dogs and 2 adult cats, I just added a puppy and a kitten.
The kitten cost me a motorcycle. My husband has always wanted a
motorcycle, but agreed to wait until the children were out of the
house. After adding a puppy to the animal kingdom, he was resistant to
adopting a kitten. So we now have a kitten and
a motorcycle. Perhaps we should call the kitten Honda. While many
things have changed, some have stayed the same. I still love chocolate.
What more could a girl want in life?

[IMill Creek, WA] |
After high school I went to
college in California. I spent my junior year in Austria and graduated
from UCLA in 1984. Educated but with no marketable skills (can you say liberal arts
major?), I decided to pick where I wanted to live and find a job and
place to live after that. I moved to San Francisco and lived with my
older sister, sleeping under her dining room table (seriously), for 6
weeks until I found work and an apartment. I fell into the computer
industry at age 27 (as a temp) and worked my way from very humbling
beginnings to writing computer
manuals. After 10 years I called it quits and went into
semi-retirement.
For the next 8 years I did whatever got my interest. I volunteered as
an animal assisted therapist with one of my dogs for three years,
volunteered with the SPCA,
hospitals, and other human services organizations, and basically
entertained myself as I saw fit. It's good work if you can get it! I
saw the beginnings of a mid-life crisis after 6 years of that, so,
after considering the red sports car, I decided instead to go back to
school and become a nurse. I am finishing my last year of school now
and should be working as a nurse by the time our reunion rolls around.
I'm very happy and love what I'm
doing. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again and
having a little too much to drink in weather that is just a little too
hot for comfort and a pool that is just right for relaxing. Ring any
bells for any of you from our last reunion?

[Norman, OK] |
I graduated From OU with a BS in
Education. I taught school in Moore, OK for 7 years before moving
to Texas and going into the printing industry. I lived in the
Dallas area for several years before moving to the LA area for a couple
of years. I moved
back to OK for a couple of years but really missed living near the
ocean
so I moved to Jacksonville, FL and have been here about 7 years and
love
it. I am now a wimpy Floridian when it comes to going back home
to
the cold. LOL! I have a son who is 24 years old and
graduated
from college this month. He is an awesome kid, if I do say so
myself.
He is the highlight of my life.

Well, Keith retired from
the military at 20 yrs and we're now just outside of D.C. To many
people crammed into to small an area makes me long for Okla., but what
ya gonna do? You guys would laugh at what people here consider a
"yard."
I picked up an autoimmune disorder while stationed in Italy related to
a botched minor surgical prodedure. Please, don't let
anyone tell you that socialized medicine is as good as ours.
Trust me, it's not. On the brighter side, it got me out of nursing as I
can't be around sick people. Yeah! Now I enjoy piddling around
the house, although Keith says I do anything but piddle. Nothing makes
me happier than gutting something unnecessarily, just because I
can.... Lindsey is in high school and she's such an easy
kid. She's just like me, never gets into trouble (which means she
doesn't have enough fun). Come to think of it, our entire family is
rather dull. We're lucky as we're blissfully unaware.
Hope everyone is well and happy. Have a great time at the
reunion!!!

My life in a brief blurb.
I worked in Oklahoma City for the OK Easter Seal Agency, after
graduating from Phillips University. I moved to Washington, DC
and lived there until 1996, working in the hospitality industry and
enjoying life. Steve and I got married in 1995. He was a
Geodedst? Engineer for the British Military. We moved to Newbury,
England and I learned how to peg wash on the wash line, play netball,
and have many fun adventures. Carla was born in Oxford England
and has dual citizenship. In 2000, we moved to St. Louis, MO,
where I enjoyed organizing special events until 2008. The last
two years have been a strange ride of lay offs, temporary employment,
and trying different careers. I never thought at my age, I would
be job hunting!
webfind = Carrie told me I had to update my information or she wouldn't
send me funny jokes anymore.

scuba, softball, team sports.

Left Norman High School to graduate from Noble High in 1980.
Married in 1981. Had my first son Todd in 1982. Had my
second son Aaron in 1983. Divorced in 1985. Married again
in 1987. Divorced in 1997. Almost got it right. :) Married again
in 2000 and have a 13 year old stepson Chandler. I feel like a
cat with many lives. I don't know how many of you out there remember me
but scrolling through the directory, I sure do remember a lot of

2019
I went welding and working in the oilfield in
Norman at a place called Arvine Pipe and Supply right out of high
school. From there I had welding jobs for about 10 years. Then I went
to Aviation Mechanic Technician School at Metro-Tech and became a
A&P mechanic working on airplanes. I worked for a company called
RandAir then JB Aviation and finally Higgins Interiors all in the same
hangar. The first two were for a year or two each but Higgins I spent
14 years with. We did paint and interiors for private and corporate
aircraft. About 2005 my health declined and I have been retired since.
