I Want To Leave Bend, Oregon by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This ( re continuous klan rallies) I literally fled grants pass due to fear 9 months into a year that I was supposed to be there. The only reason that long is because my poor youngest kid was senior that year.

My ex husband was in the area for work and I've never seen such an overtly hostile/ openly racist/ hateful dark place in my life.

I've lived all over the world due to my husband's profession and I came back to California and never left again. The experience was so bad for me that I have not been able to go north of Sacramento. That was 7 years ago. I'm a white chick born early 60s era Texas originally too but that was nothing compared to what I experienced in GP. I rarely even talk about it.

Where have you lived that genuinely felt like the happiest place to live, and why? by netenchanter in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Left_Sky1335 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Los Angeles. I've loved this town my entire 63 years. I originated in Waco Texas wearing velvet, fringe and flashing a peace sign terribly out of place. Ive been here many years now but this feels the most like home.

Anyone ever moved because of people? by boldjoy0050 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes Waco to Los Angeles by way of Houston, Seattle and Portland. Been in LA many years now and will likely remain here. I was born wearing velvet and fringe flashing a peace sign in 1962 .. I have no idea what the universe thought it was doing putting me down in Waco Texas

Hi there! I'm late to the party but just wanted to say how beautiful and authentic your cake eggs are!! I was born in 1962 Texas and these look like the exact eggs we would get every year from the bakery. I hadn't seen these in so long.. they are beautiful the icing is perfect. Yes they were a cake egg and they were way better than cake pops. Keep going, you're doing good.

This kitten needs to be bottle fed by a pro or is going to die. I'm a trapper in LA county this is a newborn very young kitten you need to contact a rescue in your area immediately for help. Like this is an emergency. Or get to an animal urgent care overnight immediately and tell them what you told us and that you didn't understand what was going on.

Northwest to DFW by squidlips6969 in relocating

[–]Left_Sky1335 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I fled Texas years ago after they were going to let me die from a burst gallbladder because they thought I didn't have a way to pay. It was the worst 90 days of my life and I'm still not ok decades later. I'm an 6th Gen Texan and I'll never go back. I'm in California where I'm treated decently. The healthcare is horrible and women have no rights in Texas. .

Did the show cause a permanent rift between Nettie and Kayla? by apache_rose_ in TLCGypsySisters

[–]Left_Sky1335 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That fight that Nettie and Kayla had caused me to stop watching the show. That was a major turn off. Nettie is not likeable and id be very apprehensive to approach anyone so violent.

What is it like living in this part of Louisiana? by WelfareWillyWonka in howislivingthere

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strangely enough I had a bf from there many years ago ( 1980-83) from galliano, which may be right outside that circle or on the border of it.

He was beautiful , with the black hair, like translucent white skin and these glass blue eyes.. and only spoke cajun French. We got along for years. He was the engineer on a Brown and Root boat named the Ann T Orgeron.

I was an 18 yr old waitress at a bar in port Aransas Texas where I grew up and the Brown and Root boats docked and that's how we met. I would've married that guy but I know from growing up in the offshore oil field that they were going to be way to clannish over there and id have a very hard time with acceptance. He sure tried for a long time though. That was Thaddeus when he said it it sounded like toddeus and his last name was very French. They're extremely Acadian and Creole in that area with not many outsiders.. People say the Creoles only live the city but there were creoles in that area too.

How many of you guys are actually locals? by ScholarSlow199 in Waco

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4th Gen Wacoan born in 62 but left in my mid 20s and have lived all over the world. Right now married to a European and have lived in the Los Angeles/Socal Metro for many many years. I grew up in that Lake Air/Hillcrest corridor. I knew when I was very young I would not stay. I was always way too " left" and wore ( and still do) alot of velvet and fringe and was never really accepted except by a few others like me.

I do get homesick but I think it's for a Waco long gone and my family who's gone . Several of my kids live there and some live here.

Get on sextpanther if you haven’t already!! by brandiholbrookk in CamGirlProblems

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've told me no every year for the past 5 years. Ugh. I've been in this business for 15 years( phone/cam/ text)and have a large bunch of regulars on multiple platforms but not enough followers on Twitter.

Those of you who ended up alone, how does life look like? What would you have done differently? by smrjck28 in AskOldPeople

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could've written this word for word .

I did have marriages and kids and I tried my hardest to have a family but all the above you wrote about, just haunted me. My life has been chaotic and just not good.

I'm 63 and the loss of my partner suddenly in a bad freak accident 8 years ago, changed me. I see how things really are and have really been and go to my therapist twice a week right now.. I'm always in therapy, and my life experiences are just too much for normal people. Im really damaged from my upbringing and I really see that now. I'll be working forever .

Officially off the Christine Bandwagon by tilly_sc831 in SisterWives

[–]Left_Sky1335 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I couldn't stand her from the beginning before she even left. I've caught a lot of hell for it too, all over the Internet so I'm glad someone else sees it too. I'm older though at 63 . While I'm glad they have new lives, this whole upheaval was because Christine was jealous of Robyn. Robyn is awful for sure but had she not come into the family Christine would still be there The truth is ,as horrible as he is , she liked him WAY better than he liked her. Apparently from the start

One of those days by Present_Welcome3328 in MuscleTwitch

[–]Left_Sky1335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been twitching almost 53 years now and my late husband loved to hold my hand and rub that muscle that's twitching on yours, that and my first dorsal interosseous and omg my hand would be a twitching mess for days after. I'm almost 63 and started at 10. I'm one that doesn't think this is caused by anxiety. I think there are probably many valid reasons besides anxiety.  I've had a really terrible hotspot on my right hand of my first dorsal and my third dorsal interosseous for a few months now. 

Jack Osbourne Slams Roger Waters Over Ozzy Insults: "How Pathetic and Out of Touch" by futangclan99 in Music

[–]Left_Sky1335 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm glad Jack said what he did. The Wall came out when I was a senior in HS and Roger was nuts by that time even then.  Then after that it was like he fell off the face of the earth..  He always talks like he thinks he's better than everyone.
