howdy today melinda010100! hey congratulations on your placement in the Engagement League! wow I was so shocked, I figured I'd just be in the top 5 somewhere but you dang near made the top ten!
I need to work on interacting with more people this week, and doing more replies to replies! Thanks for helping with that one!
haha! well melinda010100 it is my pleasure to converse with you and most people on here are very nice to talk with so it's very easy to increase engagement, I'm sure by now you know tons of people that you could talk to more.
I do! You are certainly the master, though!
hahaha...I wouldn't say that because all I do is find wonderful people like yourself who are kind enough to carry on a conversation and so I should only get half the credit and everyone I talk to should get the other half!
So now you must tell me more about you! I have lived in a few different towns in Wisconsin, but you have lived in several states! Do you have kids? Are there things you miss about Ohio? Where did you grow up?
howdy today melinda010100! I hope today is going well for you. You're probably an early riser and have been up for a long time already.
I started off being raised in Kansas City but then we moved out to the farm in SouthWest Kansas when I was in the third grade, it was way out in the country about 25 miles from Dodge City and that's where I finished growing up, on the farm.
But I drifted around and lived in Kentucky, Indiana, Colorado and the latest state was Ohio.
I don't have kids myself but my wife had a daughter when we married and the daughter had kids early so we have 2 Grandsons ages 21 and 18.
In fact the older one joined steemit but hasn't posted anything yet.
I miss the business in Ohio, we had built a large real estate business and for me it was my dream-come-true stay at home business. I loved it and didn't want to leave Ohio and give that up, at least not when we did.
But my wife said the stress was killing her and she had to stop so we gave that up and moved to Texas because it was the best place we could find within our budget with some privacy and acreage.
Well, plus she loves the hot weather and wanted to move South. I love more of a variety of seasons and didn't want to move this far South.
Now we're looking for ways to make an income, she has a verbal acceptance for a job and if something comes up for me I might be gone from steemit except for very limited engagement.
