My Short Story
Introduction

Just to get started, things I feel strong about,
Hi, my name is Don and this is a brief get to know me story.
I belive that communication is the glue that binds in any kind of relationship. The book ends of a partnership is Love, Trust, Honor and respect. Without all of the above It really wouldn't matter what is written below. I do believe that love can hit you like a storm and can leave you just as weathered. I was raised on a ranch in Maryland and feel that this is one of the best ways to bring up kids. It teaches them all about responsibilities and work ethics and in-stoes a morality. I wrestled when I was nine with the boys club. I continued all through school and went undefeated my last two years. I got started early in life, when I was nine I had a job. I started learning how to cook and my brother and I took care of the animals.My dad had a construction company so I went to work for him. John one of his carpenters had a produce stand and asked me if I would run his stand, he offered me $140 a week to run his stand and my dad payed me $35 a week for laboring for his company, not a hard decision. My dad liked it cause he got free produce. Anyway speeding up a bit while going to school I picked up knowledge in arts and crafts. I became a pretty good sculpture, carver, artist with pastel and oils and I got into writing poetry. Vi my nanny taught me about cooking, before I knew it I was showing her some things. Sticking with the cooking I got into it professionally After Graduation I moved around quite a bit, I guess becoming me. I finally wound up in Texas at the age of twenty and here I stayed building a family. It has shrunk now smaller than it was through many trials and tribulation that was out of my control. I was with Lauri for 13 years. We were married 10 and we have two sons Anthony is 24 Jeff is 22. I do have a daughter Emily 8yrs.old she lives with her mother I feel that I am a happy go lucky kinda guy. I enjoy spontinaity and I do love puns and sarcasm, I play a pretty good game of pool and like to throw darts. I like camping, fishging, climbing. I love God and my country but really don't understand the government. I have recently moved back to the Crofton area from Texas to get some books published.
