Well, I first saw this post topic on Blessed’s blog, and then I came across it again on Jody’s blog. The different part about Jody’s post was that this time I got tagged. The theme behind the post goes like this:

Think back on the last 15 years of your life. What would you tell someone that you hadn’t seen or talked to for 15 years? How would you sum up your life? You get 10 bullet points. A list of 10 things to summarize about you. At the end of your list, tag 5 more people and send on the love…

The last 15 years? That would only make me 15, so I guess for the purpose of this post I have to talk to someone like I haven’t seen them since I was 15. I guess I can do that. So, without further ado here it goes:

• Yes I graduated high school. I was a slacker for my freshmen year, but I finally realized that an education was pretty important and buckled down and got my diploma.
• No, I’m not still with the same girl from high school. We did get married, but it was short lived, and then a few years later I met my current wife, and she is perfect.
• Remember how much I hated high school, and all things related to it? Well now I work in a school system. Now there is some irony.
• Hunting and fishing are still a HUGE part of my life and will probably always be. To be honest they are a bigger part of my life now then they have ever been.
• I still live in the same town I grew up in and I am pretty happy with that. Hopefully my wife and I’s four year plan works out and we get to move into the country, but for now the small town life works just fine.
• We bought our first house two years ago and we take tremendous pride in it. Sure it isn’t the fanciest one, but it’s ours, and we’ve made some fun improvements to it.
• I finally broke down and got a dog. I know I always said I wouldn’t have one of my own, but I do. I should say we do, because I think the wife likes him more than I do. Did I mention that he is completely crazy?
• I run two of my own websites. One is a personal notebook type, and the other is an outdoor blog. They take up a lot of my time and I absolutely love it. Never did I think I would like to write, but with my outdoor site/blog, it sure has taken a hold on me.
• Family is a big part of our life, and I’m glad that most of them are close by. Even the cousins who moved to South Carolina are on their way back and we couldn’t be happier. It is going to be like when we were 15, except now it will be hunting, and our kids playing together, rather then bb guns and G.I. Joe’s.
• My wife and I are expecting our first child in October, and we couldn’t be happier. It has made life come full circle for us at this point, and we can’t wait for our little girl to get here.

So there ya have it. The last 15 years of my life in a nutshell. This was actually a pretty fun post to do. I really had to put a lot of thought into it. I mean you only get 10 bullet points, and I could have kept going, so picking the important ones was a little bit of a task.

In the spirit of this post, I now have to tag 5 people to write a similar post of their own. I’m going with:

Jeff at Lowcountryhunting

Rick at Tails and Trails

Phillip at The Hog Blog

Mike at Hunting with Mike

Kris at Jake’s Outdoors

Hopefully everyone takes me up on the offer. I love getting different insights into my fellow blogger’s lives.
