Just alittle of whom I am.

I live in Southern California between L.A. and Palm Springs now for the past 35+ years that is only because I could not stand the cold winters in Waupun, Wisconsin anymore.  Waupun, WI is where I grew up and lived for the first 24 years of my life.   35 years ago I moved to Hemet, Ca. was a nice city to live in now that it is becoming bigger and bigger I just don't know anymore.
I just turned 59 years old and not doing to badly from a man that had polio when I was 13 months old and the doctors at that time told my parents I would be lucky to live 5 years. LOL!  
I dropped out of high school when I was 18 years old because I thought that I was going to raise a family of three right away due to my girlfriend at the time was P.S. and went to work at a shoe company in Beaver Dam, Wi.  
She lost the child when about 12 weeks and she bored up our engagement.
Later I recieved my GED then moved out here to Cali.  where I've had a number of different jobs and  met a lovely girl from Colorado, we were then married when I was 25 and she was 23.  Sense our 10 year marriage we had three great children, first a girl now 31 years old.  A boy now 26 years old and another boy now 24 years old.  All have moved out of the house excepting the youngers and he has his own website and works from the house.
Oh almost forgotten to say that this marriage lasted 10 years and were divorced in 1987.  
Although now due to other circumstances we are now living together in a large 5 bdrm. house and get along with each other just fine.  I think that is only because we don't see each other all that much.  LOL!
I have my computer in my bdrm and hers in her bdrm.  & keep pretty busy with our own lives that ways.
You see I am now confined to a hospital bed and get about with the use of an electric Jazzy 600 wheelchair.
My loves are medal & woodworking along with making and designing American Indian jewelry. 
I used to love photography and still do have a good eye for the beautiful, strange and unique.  I've a special eye for the designs of buildings too for my love of  architectural draftsmanship and have designed many structures of buildings, bridges, with many houses small to the extreme largest of 
castles. 
I also have a love for all kinds of animals too but still am not scared nor frightened to go out to McDonalds and eat one either. Ha!   Have had all kinds of pets in my life from dogs & cats to hamsters, frogs, snakes, lizards, turtles, horeses, goats, donkeys, even had a little monkey once but he was way to dirty for me to have in the house.  The list is many. 


This is my first blog or in my days we'd call them diaries and it was only a girly thing to do but what the heck at my age I really don't care and maybe someday my grandchildren might read some of this stuff and know where I come from and what thier Greatgreatgreat grandpa was. LOL!  
That this is if there are still computers around that still have this stuff. Ha!... ha!... ha!....

I haven't put in any other really personal stuff here of where I've worked and what I've done because, well that really isn't anyone else's business.   although if anyone else cares to subscribe to my blog you must ask me any questions you might like to know and will answer all honestly.
