First off ,I assure you that I am real ,even though I don't have a salute yet ( the camera doesn't like me too much lol. I am a fairly recently widowed father of 3 kids ,2 boys and 1 girl (my wife died back in February). My life really isn't all that right now to where I need to write paragraph after paragraph about myself (not meaning to sound uppity,just ask if you really want to know . This is my second time being on this site so I only have 2 pics for now (I have a Facebook page, if you want it let me know ). My kids are 13,11,and 10 and yes you might say they were born almost back to back lol. I love them to death although being "Both" mom and dad can be severely trying ,most of the time. i can't really say I do that many things that are considered EXCITING ...fishing,putting puzzles together,listening to music ,playing computer games/video games (yes I am still a child like that lol),going to movies ...cooking/grilling (yes ladies ,I know how to cook and am also "WELL FED" lol),I own a bass, electric, and acoustic guitars and an electric keyboard ,(used to have a drum set too but had to pawn it ) so you might say ,I have a little bit of an artsy side to me. I want to get back into drawing stuff (I took drafting when I was in college and was a decent cartoonist back then ) and maybe try my hand at painting .I have a heart condition (Had a heart attack back in '04 almost died, had to have 2 stents put in ),diabetes ,thyroid problems,sleep apnea,RLS, neuropathy in my legs(I have to get spinal block shots for the pain and take 3 Vicodin when it acts up),fibromyalgia,PTSD ,depression...all of which I have been trying to get SSI/disability now for going on almost 9 years . If you can look past all my flaws , and really get to know me ,you will find I am an asshole at times ,yes ,but a good friend too on the other hand.
