Tell us about yourself: I am the middle child of a family of eleven with siblings born relatively close together (only 11 months apart in the case of two younger brothers).
My family was poor to the point of being destitute, however, I really didnt know that I was from a poor family, in fact, before his school experience, I thought my family was well off.
I entered elementary school in 1960.
I was unable to "focus" on lessons, and was passed on from grade to grade as a slow and inattentive student (the system during this era blatantly classified students as low, medium, and fast achievers). NOTE: This made it alot easier to be singled out by other students as "dumb" or "nerdy."
I failed socially and became labeled a loner.
My clothing was usually homemade or passed down.
My shoes were worn to the point of falling apart (they flapped when I walked).
When I ran out of school supplies, I would erase previous assignments, and reuse the paper (as long as my eraser held out).
For lunch, sack lunches were the norm (usually a sandwich and homemade snack), sacks were to be saved and used for at least a week at a time, and they were usually an odd size (left-over grocery bags, etc.).
I tried out for every sport that was offered and was cut each time.
Near the end of twelfth grade I discovered that I was not going to have enough credits to graduate and consequently dropped out.
I had several brushes with the law during this time of my life.
I eventually was given a choice between jail or the Marine Corps so I chose the Marine Corps (this was my first step in the right direction because it taught me a great deal about self discipline, and the possibility of achievement).
While in the Marine Corps I was required to take and pass a G.E.D.
Also while in the Marine Corps I earned several meritorious promotions (promoted from E-1 to E-5 in less than two years), and received one meritorious mass and two meritorious promotions prior to being honorably discharged.
After being discharged I worked several dead end jobs and eventually became addicted to alcohol.
I eventually overcame the addiction to alcohol, and decided to try going back to school.
I did not have enough basic algebra skills to pass a simple college entrance exam, and was diagnosed as ADD (inattentive), dyslexic (processing problem -- not addressed in the 60s), and a 4MAT type 4, right brain learner.
I eventually taught myself basic algebra (along with various other subjects) so that I could attend college.
I studied civil engineering technology and ended up making the deans list.
After earning an associate of science degree, I went to work for the small community of Rupert, Idaho as an entry level engineering technician. Within two years I was promoted all of the way to the top of the organizational chart.
I remained with the community five more years until I got so disgusted with local politics that I resigned (I was politically correct, and told them that I resigned to return to school -- which I did -- but my real motivator was that I was sick of the BS).
I just recently finished my undergraduate work and earned a Baccalaureate of Science Degree (Civil Engineering Technology).
I am now 42 years old, looking for work and attending school full time as a graduate student.
I am a devoted husband and father, I love my family more than life itself (my wife, two sons, a nephew I call son, and a daughter that I've never seen because I was fool) . . . . and it is my firm belief that God does exist, and He does hear and answer prayers. I'm walking, talking proof!

Tell us about yourself:I have been inspired to write by my expiriences with many different types of people. Nearly all of my writing is of real expiriences of me or people I know. Even though I'm young I have expirienced more than most people do in a lifetime. I feel I need to write to express myself because noone else could come close to telling how I feel. I also write to capture the moment so it could live on forever. Please feel free to E-mail me with your suggestions and criticism. I enjoy hearing what people think, even if it isn't a compliment. As I continue to write I will add more to this site. I sure hope you enjoy!!! God bless you!
