In the Beginning......

Great way to start huh? I read that somewhere...

This is my first attempt at blogging so, be gentle in your critique. Unless of course you wan't a piece of me~!
If so, then BRING IT! >;-)

I am a 45 y/o almost divorced father of 3. I'd go into details but they are largely depressing and I'd like the first installment of my blog to be somewhat positive. I have 3 Wonderful children, Valeria (Lera) 17, Victor 15 and Karina 12.  I have a wonderful girlfriend Cathy,  who puts up with me for God only know what reason. and She has a little boy, Matthew 7 who, despite some developmental issues, is a joy much of the time.

I moved my family to Lafayette,  NY about 5 years ago, at the request of my soon to be ex wife. Her reasons are no longer important, but my reasons ar still valid, so here we still are. I wanted my kids to grow up in fresh air, with small-town values. Long Island is no longer the place it was when I was growing up and even though I miss it terribly at times, and especially the family and friends I left behind, I feel justified that my kids are developing and growing better here, so it's worth the sacrifice.

It's not all sacrifice mind you,  because we did move into the middle of the best support system anyone can ask for. A big Shout out to the Alpha Delta Mu Alumni Association~! My brothers, My friends, who have helped me in ways I cannot begin to thank them enough for. I love you guys/gals.

I am 45 as mentioned above and it's true. I do not know what I wanna be when I grow up. I have been to told to figure out what it is I love to do and find a way to make a living doing it, but there isnt much call for sleep-study subjects and the other things might be felonies in this state! Kidding on the second part.... My dream job would be to get into broadcasting, or ideally to do cartoon voiceovers and voice acting. But the field is not really very open and jobs, especially in the CNY region are scarce. I have been told countless times that I should be on the radio or television and am asked often to do cartoon impressions. While it is fun to do, it doesnt build up a resume of accomplisments...

Well, thats me in a nutshell. I will blog a bit more as the mood strikes. Be Blessed!
