When I was a freshman in HS, I broke 3 vertebrae while doing gymnastics. I had to school myself at home for the second half of the year. Years later, I took my daughter sledding. It was her first time going sledding and wanted me to go on the sled with her. We wound up hitting a bump and I re-broke 2 of the same vertebrae.

Used to build and sell dollhouses and 1/12 scale furniture.
Mostly just enjoy every day life with the family and friends

Actually it was a back injury from carrying girls that weighed significantly more than I did, as a young cheerleader, caused some serious nerve damage. Unfortunately it was misdiagnosed then (actually until I had my second kiddo some 10 years later) and I spent a lot of time in treatment for a problem that was really something else. No wonder it wasn't getting better...any whoooo. I spent some time in a wheel chair and got to experience first hand how difficult it can be to be mobile. Makes me look at ADA as a neccessity not just a good suggestion

I think I shared other places that I was lucky enough to have a chance to live in Germany (near Mannheim) for three years; Sendai, Japan for 1 1/2 years and Yokohama, Japan for another 1 1/2 years as a kid. In 9th grade in Japan one of my classmates had been in my first grade class in Germany. Small world, huh?
Been to most of the fifty states and about 10 other countries.
Met my wife on a blind date, dated for three years, now married with seven children (four boys; three girls). One son still a dependent although three of the boys live at home. Oh, yeah, one sponsored child in Mexico. A beautiful young lady who is now 14.
Had one brother and now have five, going on six, grand-children.

They basically do their own thing. Even dinners are less of a family affair since they're often at work or at friends. One of our boys is a senior this year and next year will be at college. He's a great help. Does most of the laundry for my wife and I and always is willing to help.
