All i want for my 30th birthday is some steemit love! ☆ introduce yourself ☆

Looking back at my posts I realized I never formally introduced myself to the steemit community. 😲 So I figured, better late than never! And what better day to do it than on my 30th birthday!

Where to start!?🤔🤔

☆Well I was born and raised in the great state of Oklahoma! 《《Boomer Sooner!》》

I graduated high school in 2006 and went to Oklahoma University for no good reason and got a worthless degree in criminology/sociology. I wanted to be a detective and put pedophiles away!

Though when I graduated in 2011, I worked in law enforcement for awhile and actually worked for the DEA dealing with asset forfeiture. During the whole time working in law enforcement, I had very different views than everyone I worked with. I am an advocate for legalizing drugs, especially marijuana and other victimless crimes. Even though I worked in asset forfeiture, I didn't agree with it 💯%.

During this whole time I was painting murals on the side. As you can see some of them in my previous posts.

While working for DEA I realized that my life was going to be miserable if I stayed in law enforcement. So I decided to do what I love...... paint🎨🎨. Although I'm not doing murals full time, I'm still doing those as a side service. My actual job now is running my own painting company Every Which Way Painting LLC! I do residential interior and exterior repaints and repairs and I love it!!

My other interest is in bitcoin and crypto currencies. I bought bitcoin in 2013 when it was $90. I held on to it till it got to $3000 and thought that I acquired enough information and knowledge about bitcoin that I could try to sell high and buy low and also trade other coins. Boy was I wrong!! I suck at it! Like really really suck at it. I've lost thousands trying to do it. I'm still up due to getting in when it was so low but geez, I'm the worst lol. Anyways I'm invested in bitcoin, litcoin, ethereum, pivx, EOS, and electroneum.

So I can't introduce myself without introducing the most important girls in my life. I met my beautiful wife in 2009 while we were going to OU. We hit it off right away and quickly fell in love! We got married in 2011 and had our first baby girl in 2013. We had our 2nd little girl June of this year!!

I love my girls and they mean everything to me!❤❤😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁❤❤

Just this past month we decided to move to Ft. Worth TX to be closer to her family ☆☆☆Happy wife happy life☆☆☆ so if there are any steemians out there in the dallas ft. Worth area, let me know! I'm starting my painting business all over again in Texas~~~ so long days ahead

I've got a group of friends that have been close since elementary and middle school. We love to have good times!

Its funny though, like i said i got into bitcoin in 2013. To this day i have not met 1 single person (actaully in person) that has bought bitcoin or any other altcoin😲😲 i still can't believe it.

Hook me up with an upvotes, resteems, follow me and all that good stuff for my bday today!

Cheers!
