My goodness...it doesn't seem possible that so much time has passed since I was in high school, and attending Cooper High School!!
I am living out in Nevada, except for a 3 year return to Minnesota, since 1991. I live a short distance from my son, Rob, and his wife, Hana, and my 3 granddaughters. (except in Minnesota distance it would be considered a ways away)
I was a nurse for (ouch) 35 years. I've had to retire related to physical disability, and live on social security disability 100% for life.
