My background
I just moved to Littleton from Lakewood in January. I was born in Denver, but I was raised on a farm in Wellington, Colo. Now there are a lot of junk cars on that Wellington farm, and it’s a pitiful sight on what was a beautiful piece of property. I went to East High School in Pueblo, then I went to Southern Colorado State College and Pueblo Community College. I was married to a Vietnam veteran for four years. I have three children, and two grandboys. I’m retired. But I did everything. I was a security guard, a certified nursing assistant, an executive secretary, and some other things. I worked at Computer Image Corporation in Denver for a while, then I got transferred to Beverly Hills to work in the Smothers Brothers office. They were involved in the company. They’re wonderful guys. I saw them later when they did a concert in Pueblo. I got to go backstage and talk to them, and they remembered me.
My hobbies
I like to do ceramics, but it’s very expensive nowadays. I don’t like sewing anymore, I like somebody to be my seamstress. I like to do housekeeping and chores in my home. I like to keep up with myself.
My passion
My favorite word is forgiveness, because it’s the entry for the next day. I also love to spread the word about zrii.com, and other things that help people and make them feel better. Also, gardavita.com. They’re health products, to help people feel well. But you can’t solicit just everywhere, you can get in trouble. I also volunteered at the veterans hospital for five months, working at the popcorn machine. It was fun. I worked with an Air Force Pilot who flew over Vietnam, and with a Mason whose wife was in Eastern Star.
Getting established
I love it, people are nice here. I think it’s a pleasant community, because there are a lot of things to see and do. I’m getting established, and I’m getting the things I need. Things are finally coming my way. I just kicked all the negative stuff in the rear. Things were working against me, it was like a nightmare day and night for a while. But things are starting to go in my favor. I just like to be cautious about people and conversations. You don’t want to get into the wrong conversations with people.
