Born and raised in Minnesota and continue to live there. I complain about the cold winters but I'd never move out of state. I went to Catholic grade school and high school. Looking back I would do it again. Married young and had two kids by the time I was 23. Both are now in their thirtys and neither are married. I keep telling them I want grandkids and to get a move on. I worked for the same company for 26 yrs as a customer service superviser. I could write a book about rude people. The company was sold and I am without a job. I took an early retirement and am still getting used to that. I've done alot of traveling within our good old USA and have enjoyed all the people and sights I've seen. I think my favorite trip was an Alaskan cruise. It was breathtaking! I have a group of eight friends (including myself) that went to grade school and high school together. We travel together and meet once a month to keep up woth each other. We have a great time together. Some are married some divorced and some widowed. All have kids and we have alot to share.
