well dont know where to begin with this but..........
started out as a smart mouthed young punk that thought he knew it all
applied to the state troopers at the age of 18 but at the time troopers had to be at the minimum 5/9... i was lacking by a few inches ;D
uncle sam had no such restrictions so i walked into the recrutiors and told them i wanted to be a Air Born Ranger ;D
well...........
got through basic... no sweat lot of yellin and fussin but my mom could have made that DI cry ;D
air born school was a tad bit harder but i still managed and they still had no problem with my being born in the shallow end of the gene pool
RIP........GOD i could not belive that i went through basic and air born just to be told......... GET THEM WINGS OF YOUR CHEST YOU AINT #$$#%% here boy
after that nightmare(the good times) i was sent to Bragg B/Co 1/505th PIR to finish off and wait for a opening at a Ranger Battalion.
one jump later.... sorry son but your days of flying like a bird and falling like a rock are over
at 21 i am cut loose and have nothing but the rest of my life....
i got home... half a dozen odd jobs later i am now married.... two kids one on the way.
third wee one arrives and now im working full time with benie's making good money.
finally on top with everything working and my wife starts to skimp on bills...
yeah i know nothing is perfect and it ALWAYS takes two.
long story short.... after 6 years of me asking and then her asking for help........ there was help but neither of us was in the mood to offer that branch
now my kid's enjoy coming over to dad's... the youngest loves his mom which is good and the oldest see's what is really in front and this is bad(from his point of view his mom screwed up) though i really try to do my best to make it a level playing field.
well now that i have cut it down to most of the bone......... we have moved on.
hearts have healed and hardened.
for every door that close's another one opens.
now i am just a average...pot bellied...over the hill has been ;D
i try to do right by my children.... my country... and as best i may by GOD.
i work by night to put those neat gadget's into your docters office's.
blood pressure cuffs,otoscopes,optothamalascopes,panopticscopes,ekgcardiogram machines, and spot on or spot lxi (when ya go to your docter and they take your temp and b/pressure with that machine.
been employed at welch allen med devices for five years now and love every min of it ;D
folks......the next time ya get checked by your doc.......... i was probably the guy doing the final inspection on that gadget.......... ;D
dont worry though..........im a proffesional ;D
