1997 – Sorry I can’t be
there – I’m finishing my Master of Science Degree in Quality Engineering at
Eastern Michigan University. I will graduate in Dec. ’97. Wish I had paid
more attention to high school chemistry and algebra!! I miss the culture and
the safety we grew up in. On one of my work assignments, I was told that my
Nebraska work ethic got me the job. But - #1 – I love being a Grandma!! |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
2002 – I’m looking forward
to retiring in 2004 – less than 2 years away. I am moving to the west side of
Michigan to be closer to my grandkids. I read the Journal-Star on the Net. No
one in Michigan knows what Runzas are. |
