Ok. My number is 12. About myself..... hmmmm (sorry so long) 1. I remember at the age of 3ish, getting a bath in a washtub by lamplight in front of a wood stove and using the outhouse way out back (and being scared) at the ranch in Battle Mountain, Nevada. 2. Same place, Donald at 2 yrs old and I watching dad chop the heads off chickens for dinner, and running from them as they ran aimlessly squirting bood everywhere. How did I survive that one? 3. Same place...walking to the cold stream when it was warm outside to get our daily baths...Connie at 8 months, Don and I with MaryAnn. 4. One more time...walking into the living room and seeing Uncle Earl? Lying dead on our couch and being asked to leave (go out and play). 5. Age 5, trying to talk Donald out of throwing a match down the gas tank of an old car in our yard. Running when he did it...not looking back. Blew him to the next yard and took all his hair off the frontside of his face and burned him. Looked like a mummy coming home from hospital. 6. Playing on the floor with Roger and Donald at Aunt Hank and Uncle Norms in the kitchen, Uncle Norm took a brand new pot of hot coffee off the stove, the top hinge broke and coffee poured all over me. Lights out! I have a scar on my right shoulder from that. 7. Being molested by 18 y.o. Cheesey next door at age 5. He pulled 50 cents out of my ear and asked if I wanted it. I said. Yes...but didnt want to go into the closet with him. He said if his little sister did, would I? Ok. Showed it to mom and dad. They asked where I got it. Cheesey gave it to me for being good. No more questions! No more said. 8. Went to Sunday School once at age 11, cause my friend invited me to go. The lesson? 3 levels of heaven and 1 of hell. If I was bad, Id go to hell. I was a good and responsible kid, but because kids get yelled at a lot, i thought I was bad. Hence...I started then and there to rationalize god, religion, and life. Thats what led me to Metaphysics..New Age. Not religion. 9. I sold dildos for 13 years. I was still selling them when I was hired on at the PD. I was told to quit, it was unbecoming to the PD. I had 3 months to get rid of my $4,000 in stock and couldnt bring it up to my peers there. 10. I was in the Navy during the Vietnam War. Stationed at VT-27, Naval Air Station, Corpus Christi, Texas. I was CO, XO, and Legal Yeoman. I rode in on a helicopter with Santa in my red hot pant outfit and go go boots to help him every year for three years. 11. I bought a 3 level house in Seattle for $79,000 and proceded to scrape, spackle, sand, prime, and paint it all in a summer and a half all by myself while raising three babies early 1980s. Sold it for $149,000. Its now worth $550,000. 12. Whew! The day of Bills funeral (8/2007), I came home, flipped the lights on to our house, and they flipped off. I couldnt get them to stay on. Called Rocky Mtn Power and they disconnected me from the grid til I replaced the main outdoor power box. $3600 and 6 days later, I was able to go home. The darkness then was aweful.
