Hello all. 

 I am many things, as a matter of fact, to many things to list, but would love the oportunity to explain and enlighten the masses of who and what I am and where I come from.  I was born in Ft. Sill Oklahoma, (Dad was in the Army) and shortly after moved back to my home town of Columbus Ohio. 

I spent my summers in Tennessee with grandma and grandpa when I could and winters in Ohio.  I have based a lot of myself and my choices for my family on what I learned growing up.  I have lived a very interesting life and lived at the top of the world and the bottom. 

After graduation I got kicked out of my dads house and to avoid being homeless at 18 I joined the navy, (there were other reasons also) and spent 4 years in the Navy.  I have been to many places in the world but my desire for travel has not been sated.  I will tell of my travels in a hub at a later date.

After the military I met and married my high school sweetheart and we have had two children.  One boy and one girl.  both my children were born in December (the 18'th and 26'th) both the same age every year for 8 days.  I have made good decisions and bad over the last seven years and have seen my wife and kids and I in the best of times finacially and also homeless living in a van for 6 months.  My wife has stuck with me through all of this and I love her more for it. 

We decided three years ago for me to go back to school.  I started at the University of Phoenix and will graduate in July.  My wife has also started going back to school and is doing even better than me.  My GPA is 3.0 hers is a 4.0, I am very proud of her. 

I was recently a manager at a fast food resturant and left the job for another job with less money due to many reasons but the major reason was health.  I have had 3 heart attacks in the last year and had to step back.  Yes thats right 30 years old and already 3 heart attacks.  My health is now doing better but not good enough yet.  I am having a hard time putting down the food that I love so much and picking up a carrot stick.  The one think I can say is that I have all but totally cut beef out of my diet.  It is a rare event that I get beef and man do I savor that one.

I have seen a very large spectrum in life and want to actually write a book about it so this is the first step in doing so.  My goal is to write my life in this and upon completion consolodate and publish it.  So if you stick with me, you won't have to buy it, you'll already have read it.

Thank you and I look forward to your comments and reading your hubs also.
