Hello! My name is Karen and welcome! I’m a mom to two young men. I’ve been married to the same wonderful, patient, thoughtful and generous man (Kevin) for 35 years.
I used to work full time in a healthcare clinic (12 years) before moving to the precertification dept and work from home now – it’s my “day” job. I squeeze in family time and blogging in between all of that. (Okay, I really spend the majority of my “down” time watching gamers on Rumble or searching writing-related content).
We converted a cargo trailer into a camper and I guess we’re campers now! (Since going on cruises was put on hold because of the COVID crap).
I graduated from college with a B.S in Technical Writing – so I’m a wordy know-it-all, as well as a minor in creative writing – so don’t always believe what I write. *wink*
I believe in Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Writing Well. (I also believe in our Constitution – Don’t Tread on my Rights, Yo).
I can be snark-a-licious, but only when provoked or when confronted with ignorant, ill-informed knuckleheads.
I’ve been blogging (on and off, mostly off) for…. how many years…? (I’ve lost track, quite honestly).
I also have a lot to say about nothing.
Brace yourself.

Congrats to CarolSue!
Congrats Carol!
What a fun idea! I posted mine!
Thanks again for doing this, Karen!
Tell Kevin that he’s got a great eye!
I decided to play again. 🙂
Hi Karen,
Here is my entry http://jodicleghorn.wordpress.com/2010/01/14/winter-photo-contest-entry/ (shall link in Mr Linky also!)
It exemplifies to me winter – our favourite holiday location, coats-gloves-beanies and of course family. Right now I’m hanging for some cooler weather (but will be moaning about the cold soon enough I imagine!)
Thanks Emily, I got it. I’ve included it in the Mr. Linky script above. Thank you for submitting!
I submitted my favorite photo of my Pine Trees covered with snow.
I know mine’s not of snow, but what I really associate with winter, big traditional sit-down dinners where smoked turkey is the star.

I looked through all our recent digital pictures, and this one really screams WINTER to me! Brrrrr. It was taken at the Portage Glacier near Anchorage, Alaska

I took this picture of a Junco and a Tufted Titmouse a couple days ago in my backyard. Good luck everyone!
My little sister decided to try and play the horn ornament on our Christmas tree!

I posted my entry! Blizzards in Texas don’t come that often, last one was 25 years ago. :p
I vote for Jen @ mommablogsalot. Her photo of her little boy buried in the snow is just too right. Every kid needs to really get into what they’re doing & he certainly is!
Love the melding of two seasons here. 🙂 Looking forward to seeing the other entries!
I would like to submit the following photo for your Winter Photo Contest. Since I live in the desert we don’t have an abundance of snow but we do have many leafless trees to photograph.
