  • 1980 - When I first moved to the San Francisco Bay Area I lived ON Alemeda Island ON the military base - across the street from the Officers Club with my uncle that was the commanding officer of the base.  What times!!!!  Hanging out at the "O Club" & dating Marine pilots (I always thought I'd marry a Marine Pilot like my daddy - till I got THIS experience & REALLY saw what the military life/military was about!!  I got to experience/live the life of the military "wife" without doing it by dating a few officers.  NOT for me!!! [do you know there's actually a "Marine Corp Wives Handbook" that tells you how to help your husband move up in ranks - basically by giving up your OWN identity!!  NOT for me!!!)

NOT the white picket fence CPA he represented.

  • Off to my 10 year high school reunion (El Modena High - Class of 1975 - Orange, California) fresh off the airplane from 3 months traveling by myself around Europe on an Eurail Pass!!  EVERY thing I had one - from top to bottom (including jewels & make up & undergarments) was from Europe including my gorgeous "Dynasty dress" that I had a good college friend - Ellin Brown who was a haute couture designer in Paris make for me!! 

I'm blessed to have big boobs all my life but them to be more under my arms pits so I'm quite flat in the middle hence can pull off these kind of dresses!!  It was funny as MANY were watching me dance - expecting me to fall out - but I ain't no fool!!  There could have been a 8.0 earthquake & those babies weren't going no where!!
