I amMichael Breeds, 52 years old, married for 31 years, No children, neither of ushave ever wanted any, and besides our animals are our children. We own 14.78acres in Stewart County, Tennessee, where we raise chickens (21), guinea fowl(?), peacocks (5),a goose, horses (2), goats (6), dogs (2) and cats (7)
Before Ijoined the Army, I worked mainly for my father building custom cabinets, andwhen we had trouble getting along, or he thought paying others was moreimportant than paying me, I would go and work for other cabinet companies. IN1988, my father died, long and disturbing story, and I felt that I wanted totry something new. I joined the Army as a Single Channel RadioOperator/Maintainer (31C). I deployed to Germany, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Israel,Korea, Iraq, and Afghanistan x4. In February 2013, I retired from the Armyafter serving for 23 years.I worked mainly in tele-communications, SATCOM upand down links, servers, and exchange and user terminals, but also spent sometime as an Infantryman.Achieved the rank of Sergeant First Class, received aBronze Star, two Meritorious Service Medals, the Combat Action Badge and theArmy’s Expert Infantry Badge, and too many others to list. I am 100% disabledfrom injuries sustained, my PTSD and depression. In December 2008, I completedmy Associates of Science in General Education, leaning toward Criminal Justicewith Troy University. In July of 2013, I finished my Bachelors of Science inCriminal Justice with Troy University. All but the last four classes, Icompleted during deployments. In May 2015, I completed my Bachelors of Sciencein Paralegal Studies at Kaplan University. Now am working on a Bachelor’s ofScience in Psychology, with emphasis on applied behavior analysis. I figured ifthe shrinks cannot seem to help me, maybe if I knew something about it, I could.Right now I am keeping my mind busy with the courses I am taking but my G.I.Bill is about to run out, and I am afraid of not having something to keep itbusy, and my problems overtake me. I am sorry that I cannot attend the monthlyNew Member's Chat on the first Thursday of the month, I have seminars onThursday and Monday at 7:00pm local, because it starts at 8:00pm ET.
I havemany tools and looking for more right now, I am looking at an almost new RyobiDrum Sander and a 5" Craftsman Jointer/Planer, the person that has thembought a storage locker. He wants too much but I think I can get him down. Wishthe Ryobi was a Grizzly or Jet, but I used all my luck meeting and marrying mywife.
Well thatis about all there is to know, any questions just ask.
Mike
