Mike's Story
Well I retired from selling joints behind the high school when I was 18 . Got a job working for Contra Costa County ( no not in jail ) I was the Election Tech for 10 years for Contra Costa County Election Department( go figure Me and all the political BIG WIGS ) Yea when I quit there In 1985 I knew EVERY ELECTED OFFICIAL in this county . I quit that and got a real job I started working on Tug Boats for the next 18 years and now I have been SELF EMPLOYED for a while now. I own a Handyman Business. I have 2 teen age Boys that are definitely a hand full. I went through all the DRUGS one at a time but NOW I don't do ANY OF THEM not even drink and have been that way for all most going on 9 years . Glad to have all that over with . I don't think I would survive that again. Now I seem to barely make ends meet and spend MOST of my time boating with my kids or riding motorcycles and working. I use to do a LOT of sailing but the last few years I kind of took up water skiing with the boys. But I still have a LITTLE 32 ft sailboat that I rarely use. I have been single for a LONG time now ( I don't think I could find anyone that could live with my kids) But I guess that is MY fault I raised them on my own since they were in diapers.

ATER kids. I obviously take LIFE SERIOUSLY and try to ENJOY it as much as possible. My youngest will be 18 in a year and a half then maybe I will have time for MY LIFE again. I bought a little 36ft Sailboat in 1978 and sailed that around for about 14 years in till I had kids and moved off it Then it got stolen striped and sunk.(25 grand GONE no insurance) Then in 1994 I bought the Islander 32 that I have now. I just might go back to a little bit of Sailing again. Maybe a few trips to Mexico for a few winters something like that before I am OLD and GREY or I should say GREYER.... I will for sure have to UP grade the boat first. So that is something I can start on BESIDES ARGUING WITH TEENAGERS . (Man I wasn't ready for TEENAGERS what a nightmare they are LOL). I just TRY to ENJOY LIFE and LIVE IT TO THE FULLEST EVERY DAY. I have just SLOWED down and take MY days one at a time instead of in series of 5 or 6 at a time its MUCH BETTER THIS WAY .. Sorry if this bounces around and is hard to follow but SO WAS I ..... Someday I would like to have a house on a lake a little 50ft sailboat in the Bay Area and a few rentals nothing elaborate and two stable HAPPY HEALTHY boys that have found there own nitch in life. But I will probably have to work till I am 80 and die broke ...
