Hello my name is Richard.
I am a father/step-father of four. The youngest is 3, the oldest is 10. Im a former machinist/factory worker. I lost my job of 10 years back in March, and I've been home with the kids ever since. Im no stranger to the process though, I was a single father for about two years so Im a little better prepared this time around. We are a "blended family" at least thats what I think the current term is, so theres her kids, my kids, and our kids(and no we dont use those terms at home), which means not everybodys home all the time. That makes it a little easier on me, although the three year old toddler tornado is "ours" so hes here all the time. Anyways this looks like a cool place to hang out so, here I am.
