Hi to all...
I am rewriting my intro 3 years after joining Divas, and finding it hard to condense 7 decades of living into a few lines.
Thumbnail sketch:
Born in NY
Transplanted to California age 4
Left Ca briefly, during a 6 year marriage that produced 4 children... It was the 50's Ladies...
Women wanted 6 children, a white picket fence and a hubby to greet at the door, apron on and spoon in hand.
So much for the 50's.
The 60's I was raising the children alone after Mr. Wonderful disappeared. Worked as a telephone operator and waitress among other things and started taking College classes one at a time... after first getting my High School Diploma at Adult school.
Finished an RN program in 1973 . I had finished an LVN program 5 years prior to this and have continued to work at the same Hospital.
The 80's, 90's... Where DID they go? Kids left the nest , grand children came along I have 8.
2008 and I am still at the same Hospital, working part time as an admissions nurse. I had put in my time as a floor nurse.
Admissions is low key. One patient at a time instead of a team. I love it and have no intention of retiring, unless my legs or some other body part gives out.
I learned the Computer about 8 years ago when the Hospital switched from hand charting.
I have been addicted to it, since. This and TV are my primary sources of entertainment.
I like eating out with friends and family.
I have traveled a bit. I Love keeping involved with grandchildren's doings, all grown except for an 8 year old late comer.
I am proud and happy to be a Diva and I love my on line friends.
My friend and me. What can I say.. good men are hard to find .
