Should be having RnY...early-mid March unless a miracle happens this month. Mother to 3, 2 living, my son who I call Tomkitten on here and his older sister known as RD, short for Rotten Daughter. She lives 7/8 mile from me. After not speaking to me for 6 months her best friend died of a heart attack Christmas . She started calling and texting me, Will it last?Don't know, she should know I love her cause I've told her repeatedly over the years,,i just don't like some of her past actions. Hurts me she doesn't want to be closer.

That’s understandable, I have a lot of issues, personal ones. I’d love to talk about on here but just am afraid of opening up to a public audience!

I'm always here to listen, I carry this cell phone everywhere, either on wi fi or 4G. I'm on Verizon so don't have,many limitations.

I’m on Verizon too, 6065481897 is my cell, I’m here to listen to you as well


So you're in Eastern Kentucky, how do i know? I was way back a long distance telephone operator. I'm in Ohio, and a couple cousins married ky and va girls. So I'm close to a GRIT, which stand for girl raised in the South,i am sure the Michiganders on here have accused me of it. They are still mad at Ohio for winning the Toledo war. Shoot I love everybody, even my misguided sisters to the north. Once upon a time I belonged to Bassin' Gsls, insisted when late hubby joined Bassmasters. My wants were simple, he went onto to fish more for catfish, GIVE me mealworms and I'll happily fish for bass and bluegill all day. Yes I bait my own hooks and clean my own fish unless someone insists they want to do it instead. Family went froggigging, wouldn't take me, left me at the house to cook the previous day's frog,legs. Put them in the skillet and forgot to put the lid on. When they got warm they jumped out, picked them up, washed them up, fried them with the lid on and fed them to the happy hunters. Figured if they got sick served them right for not taking me.
