Robert's Story
Life after high school I had a aborted attempt at college and joined the US Navy. After floating around in the Pacific for a while, I ended up in the Mediterranean where our home port was in the south of France. I met and married a French girl and came home after the Navy...I ended up living in Europe for about 11 years after my wife decided that she didn't like the States. We divorced and I managed to keep sticking my fingers into the fan collecting two more wives along the way and a total of six children.
I am currently living in San Diego CA...about 7 years ago my mom got ill and ended up in the hospital for two weeks...we didn't think she was coming out, but surprise...she's a tough lady...the only thing that changed was she could no longer live alone...so I brought her to live with me in Orange county CA...we were there fo...Expand for more
r almost two years...the house didn't work...all the bedrooms were upstairs and Gramma couldn't negotiate them alone...I had custody of my daughter...and was acting as a foster parent to my grandson...the whole situation was too disruptive and my girlfriend and I decided to sell the house and I moved to SD taking Gramma back to her home where we've been for the past five years...
Long term plans from this point...? Gramma just turned 94 and doesn't appear to be in any hurry to go anywhere else...so I've been keeping busy remodeling her home and doing some referral custom jobs here locally...just enough to keep me off the streets at night...I'm pretty healthy and happy...enjoying my role as elder...lots of opportunity to offer sage advise
That's pretty much a thumbnail sketch...anyway...that's my story and I'm sticking to it...
