Favorite School Memory | The friendships I made - some with people I wouldn't have expected. Riding to town with Troy in the '67 Mustang. Cruising the loop in Teresa B.'s car, or riding the black Yamaha moped all over town & country. (God I miss that scooter & I think Daniel ended up using it for parts :) Reading when it was 'quiet' in the Library (not!). Singing! Time with Mrs. Banks. Swing Choir - Oh the early mornings of practice. Theater - "Anything Goes" and tap dancing! The smell of popcorn while walking around at the football games. Pep Band & Jazz Band. Running - even if it never was quite fast enough ~ there's a cleansing when you push so hard you puke your guts out! Combination locks & getting the next set of books for class. Taking notes & writing. Drinks from the water fountain. Sneakers on the gym floor. Cheerleading. 3:18pm. Hanging out in the band room, listening to Doug O., Kris K., Tom S., and Wendi B. Singing in our trio with Chellie H. and Wendi B. Crusing and hangin' with Scott A. & Paul P.

About Me | I attended U.S.D. in Vermillion, S.D. for 5 years. I worked at the State Hospital in Yankton, S.D. for 1 year. I have been living in Sioux Falls, S.D. since 1991 where I've been working at DakotAbilities. I've been a Manager & Supervisor in the past. I really enjoy my current position as a Program Coordinator ~ providing medical & other support services for people with Cerebral Palsy & special needs who are medically fragile. I love where I work! The bike trails are beautiful here, and lots of cool activities going on all the time. The city is growing & I enjoy living on the south end of town & hanging out at Bracco's or Spezia's on the patio. I have been able to spend time with my folks & brothers and their families often. I have been able to travel to Phoenix & Nashville to visit family & friends. I have enjoyed snorkeling in some beautiful tropical places, including: Oahu, Hawaii, Cozumel, Jamaica, U.S. Virgin Islands, & Grand Cayman. I continue to love music and singing, and my iPod goes with me whever I travel. Since 2006, I've been dating my best friend, Britt Pastian, who lives "West River". He and his folks have a Pheasant Hunting business in the fall. I enjoy working along with Britt every weekend farming and ranching, cow-calf pairs & calving season, herding cattle on the Honda, fixing fence, discing fields & raking hay in the JD tractor, riding together in the pick-up going down gravel roads with the windows rolled down and the music turned up. Time playing outside with the n...(read more) |
