I’m a mom, friend, baby momma…Oh ya I said that.. I absolutely adore music from  OG old school country through jazz, r and b, rock and roll, OG rap, really all kinds of rap, some opera and some instrumental, I work in the arm pit of hell aka the wear house in packaging. I’m not typically a tachometer girl but I make exceptions lol.  Life policy Think first, be kind ….you don’t often get to rewind!!!
