    About Me

    Separated, 2 Children, boys age 6 and 15. Like reading, sports, computers. Wife and I are going through a separation and impending divorce. I have moved into my own place and am trying to stand up again on my own.

    Interests

    I love to boat, fish, hunt, ride my motorcycle. Play any sport, listen to music (I like anything). I love to watch a movie on a good TV with freshly popped popcorn!

      Seems to make me feeling less. May have something to do with me getting divorced. But now that I am going through that i have no desire to go off the drugs either. Catch 22.
