All about me

Tonight I was convinced by a friend to write a biography,  seem kind of strange to think I have that much to say about myself, but it has been an interesting life I guess. My pretending to fly a rocketship 5 years before sputnik. My stealing an airplane at 13 and the aftermath of that, which truly set my life in motion. Being bullied and the butt of jokes through jr and sr high. My life as a pilot, raising a family and not doing so well at that. Then falling in Love again and spending the last 19 years with the love of my life. Being diagnosed with parkinson's and the effect on my life.

To be very clear I loved the mother of my children too but we both changed, and life as it does throws us curves we never see coming. I have as friends some of the best people I have ever met and I have met and shaken hands with some of the most intetesting people on the planet. I can honestly say I have been one hand shake away from some of the most powerful leaders on the earth. I have had as passengers some of the biggest stars and every person who ever flew with me got the best I had to give.

The life I have led so far has been very rewarding,  the life I am embarking on now is filled with anguish and fear. I am doing this for my children and grandchildren. I was not always there when I should have been, or wished I could have been. The story is a long one and not always a happy one. I am going to try to remember all the big events and as many of the ones that seemed little at the timebut still had an impact. So all I can say is I will be as honest as I can in my memories and will try not to hurt anyone.

This will be the story of my life. Not a NY TIMES best seller but it will be my life. From a child who dreampt of flying to my headlong desent into parkinson's and it's own house of horrors.  Lookong back to when I first felt something was "not right" until the present. From the day we are concieved until the day we die it is a crap shoot. Highs and lows here we go.

Parts I will share here, others you will just have to wait for the movie version.
