Janene Turnbloom Stormdancer-Brasier

Short version:
Did a semester at CCC, then married and moved to Europe for 5 years, had my oldest. Did alot of comparitive religious studying while there.
On return to CA, went back to CCC, worked as Avon manager, then Tupperware manager. My son and I shared a house in Hercules with Peggy Wager and her little one for some months while working at a local CPA office.
Married again, moved to CO, then to Europe for another 5 years (was in business making dolls and soft sculpture), had my second child, got pregnant with my third before return to CO.
Started an herb business (from things I learned in Europe, from my gram and studying), made it in a few Editions of Whos Who. Was also dress and costume designing for live scale gaming and Ren Faires, and writing games for live scale gaming. Was part of a writing team that wrote the Talislanta Cyclopedias for Bard Games.
Changed my name somewhere in there, got rid of alot of old baggage (in every sense of the word), and taught energy working, meditation, spiritual guidance, also got my ordination certificate so could perform handfastings and ceremonies. Put on seasonal psychic faires at local hotels for 3 years, with numerous vendors and readers.
Moved to Texas, watched my garden and business eaten to the ground by grasshoppers 4 years running.
Curt tracked me down and called, I got on a plane to Seattle, life changed again. He got moved to Missouri, we bought a house by the river, and I am currently working at getting the herb business back online. I got my all time dream car for my birthday this month and we have a backyard full of nature's critters (looks Disney in the mornings), a portable hot tub and 18' pool we can take with us when Curt gets his next assignment.
My oldest is in Colorado with his 8 yr old, the other 2 are living at home, doing the college thing.
I sustained some bad injuries in a 1989 car accident that still makes it hard to move some days, but life is good.
We are going to be at the reunion because it seems important to make this one for us. And I can seriously see us being busy enough in the future not be to be able to do this. So, I hope to be able to see as many of you guys there that can make it, should be fun.
I'm really not missing, I'm at Classmates with my new name. Rowan Stormdancer-Brasier
UPDATE: Working for Boeing is much like the military when it comes to moves and transfers. Everything we own has been in storage since mid July ( we have been in hotels and on the road) and we just closed on a house in Wichita KS and expect furniture delivery starting Tuesday. The house is in a developement called "The Park" - all the houses back up to a huge park with trees, jogging paths and a community pool - and the other side of the area is a huge greenbelt. We should be here 2 - 4 years, next stop, Colorado.
We (the Clan business) are regulars at Pagan PicNic in St Louis and Front Range Pagan Pride Day and the Witches Ball in Denver, CO. Looking forward to adding more venues and working on a web site redesign over the winter.
