I only added those bits of information last because that's the most traumatic thing that's happened in my life recently. After my mother in-law was killed I lobbied at the state capital to have the hit-n-run laws changed. I wrote the Governor, local senators, and every 150 members of the Assembly. On June 13 of this year the law was revised and made law.

I also thought about it for a while and left out about the 20 yrs I was an alcoholic. It caused much misery in my life and I was eventualy kicked out of my house. I put myself in a detox and have been sober now for 5 years. I didn't want to bore you folks with that.

great list. by the way, since you're married I was wondering...is your twin brother single?

OMF: Yes, He's single.
We're not very much alike though. He moved out west 20 yrs ago and has been living his own life. I think the only thing we have in common anymore is our memories of childhood. He would be quite a catch though for the right woman!
I started this blog to meet people,
How am I supposed to have an affair with someone if they keep asking about my brother??!! LMAO!
