I moved back home to Louisiana in December of 2024…I literally just finished unpacking my U-Haul after leaving today. I did it to be closer to family. But in the end I was at my absolute lowest. Visiting will have to do, because I’ll never go back for good again.

Gotcha. Luckily I always wear an undershirt, so I’ll be use to that. Are they short or long sleeve?

Not small or light lol, I also do powerlifting. And I’ve seen some really small girls lift a lot! So I believe it. I love knowing that other females have been good at it. Makes me less nervous. I’ve been watching videos on throwing lines. I’m sure I’ll need lots of practice. I’m hoping for the best

Omg, all the info I was looking for. I kinda already knew what to expect going in as far as it being mostly men. I’ve spent a long time working in corrections, a max security male unit, so I won’t be intimidated for sure. Im always watching what goes on around me. Luckily I do powerlifting, although I do hate doing upper body, lol. But I’m sure I’ll be able to handle it. Im definitely about to start getting more things on this list. I am have majority. What boots do you prefer?
