As is typical for a writer, I have tendency to droan on and on without a clear idea of where to stop BUT for this essay I am going to rein in my verbal stampede.
I am a man, NOT a homo or metro sexual. NOT even fashionable or chic, BUT also not the typical guy. I hate beer and don't drink at all, I don't like to watch sports. There isn't a competitive gene in my DNA code. I love to dance ( BUT health and fitness reasons prevent it ) I am HIGHLY sexual and affectionate and like to TRULY, deeply connect with friends, family and lovers.
I am a college educated single parent of an 8 yr old boy and a 42 year old woman ( my ex-wife-in-process ) and am battling that status in order to get my house repaired, packed up and sold so that my son and I can move to a new home and start a new life. BUT the Mrs. tends to cause delaying and obstacles to this.
I am also in combat against my A.D.D. and O.C.D. which has been greatly aggravated over the years by the treatment of my choice of soulmates.

My new life would ideally include an acreage with a shop and outbuildings, a bigger and functional kitchen and a room dedicated to only writing and online pursuits. Also it needs to have PLENTY of storage space. It would be in the Anamosa Iowa school district ( at least for now ) so that my son can attend a good but not overly LARGE school while living close to grandparents and cousins. .

IF there was space on this acreage I would love to dismantle and move then reassemble some old farm buildings on the property and eventually convert them to residential and sole commercial uses. ( for ex. a barn for a house and an oak drive through corn crib as a shop space )

I will be adding to this essay as time passes, BUT for now that should start your journey to the guy that is me.
