Knowledge of people, what life means, and my purpose in it. Strong faith and gratitude for my blessings once not appreciated or acknowledge.
We would like to thank you for supporting Colleen J Thomas in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
Confidence in whom I was born to be. No need to overachieve but be comfortable in my attempts and how far I've come and my conquests and lessons learned. I savor the everyday often overlooked mundane gifts in life... seeing my granddaughter's smile seeing me at the bus stop, how beautiful my sometimes neglected yard looks when my husband cuts the grass and decorating my home EVERY season, cementing traditions and memories for my family. Knowing my real priorities and not false expectations.
How do you stay fabulous?I pray every morning, workout 5 to 6 days a week, pursue an unrealized career, nurture my family and accept and laugh at every new wrinkle and sign of maturing I'm blessed enough to be here to experience. I take time for me and accept my limitations but celebrate my successes I wouldn't have had the patience for in my younger days.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would spoil my family for Christmas, plan a well deserved 28th anniversary trip for me and my wonderful husband. Complete my online education, stock my freezer and catch us up on our bills. I would also finally hire a landscaper to help me with my beautiful yard I've landscaped on my own for 20 years and can't manage on my own anymore.
